    Waitemata DHB is closing in on having 90 percent of its eligible Maori population with one dose of the Covid-19 jab


    It's only 125 jabs away... and will be the eighth DHB to achieve the milestone.

    New Zealand has 18 new community cases today -- 13 in Auckland, three in Waikato, one in Bay of Plenty and one in Lakes.

    A woman in her 70s with the virus died at Middlemore Hospital in Auckland last night.
