A RadioNZ interview I did with Nita Blake-Persen on the 600,000 still-unvaccinated adults of NZ and the ‘readiness’ of our already struggling healthcare system.

If our healthcare system struggles to deliver timely care now, it’s a safe bet that going to get much worse as Covid burns through.

Will try to get the whole interview posted if possible, with Nita (https://www.rnz.co.nz/authors/nita-blake-persen) asking questions about the bigger picture of healthcare as seen through the lens of hands-on emergency department care.
