It seems that the Government is not up with the state of play.
A very sad state of affairs.
This is doubly or triply stupid. First of all, covid (or what's left
of it) is now exclusively JN1 strain: >https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/first-up/audio/2018926116/jn1-now-the-dominant-strain-of-fifth-wave-of-covid
Article dated 15 Feb: "JN1 ... is now responsible for almost all New
Zealand Covid infections".
So now they bring in this moronic "update" shot that brings them up to
the latest extinct variant, XBB.1.5: >https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/509854/covid-19-vaccine-that-targets-new-strains-available-next-month
Meanwhile people are starting to drop like flies from all the stoopid
covid shots! Come getcher "safe and effective" and TIMELY poison.
The article from thepress.co.nz above said:
"A Covid-19 vaccine that is more effective against newer strains of
the virus will be available from March 7, health officials have
confirmed.
Drug buyer Pharmac said it has secured stock of a vaccine that
provides better protection against the Omicron strains XBB1.5 and
JN.1. JN.1 is now responsible for almost all of New Zealand�s cases."
Thanks for the url for the RNZ article though, it included:
"Last week, Te Whatu Ora reported 5555 new cases and 20 deaths.
Last week, a new study published in Vaccine reported that vaccines
against Covid-19 saved an estimated 4000-12,000 lives in New Zealand
during the Omicron phase of the pandemic.
The authors said New Zealand's elimination strategy meant most people
were able to be vaccinated before being exposed to the virus, and
there were fewer hospitalisations.
Aotearoa had one of the lowest Covid-19 mortality rates in the world."
