When will I get<br />
my COVID-19<br />
vaccinations?<br />
A quick guide for people in Canterbury | Waitaha<br />
We are currently vaccinating Group 1, Group 2 and a limited number of people in Group 3*.<br />
Group 1<br />
Group 2<br />
Includes border and MIQ workers and their household contacts.<br />
Includes frontline health workers, people working and living in long-term<br />
residential care, and older Māori and Pacific people being cared for by<br />
whānau, the people they live with and their carers.<br />
Group 3<br />
Includes people aged 65 and over and those with underlying conditions and<br />
disabilities * .<br />
*<strong>The</strong> people we’re currently vaccinating in Group 3 include some people aged 65 and<br />
older and some people residing in rural areas.<br />
We’re vaccinating people in Group 3 in rural areas with small populations because of<br />
the time and cost associated with visiting the location several times.<br />
We’ll continue to invite more people in Group 3 to book through <strong>June</strong> and July.<br />
If you are in Group 3, you don’t need to do anything right now.<br />
We’ll contact you by text, phone call or letter when it’s your turn.<br />
Group 4<br />
Includes everyone, aged 16 or over. Group 4 vaccinations will start from July.<br />
Please be patient – we will have enough<br />
vaccine for everyone in New Zealand<br />
