New Zealand has joined the ranks of countries to approve a COVID-19 vaccine for use, but Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern won't be among the first vaccinated.

"I will absolutely be vaccinated, my family members will be vaccinated," she said in the tiny Northland village of Waiomio on Wednesday."I don't have day to day contact with people who may have COVID-19. It is our cleaners. It is our security guards. It is our nurses who do the testing at our managed isolation facilities. They need to be first in line.

Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield said regulatory approval required a round-the-clock effort.Why Australia's multicultural communities are calling for tailored coronavirus vaccine information

It’s a pity! Australia as an advanced country doesn’t have any vaccine yet while the other countries have rolled out! And we all SkilledMigrants & internationalstudents still stuck behind the borders and ScottMorrisonMP doesn’t do anything! 491visa 489visa LetUsBackToAus

Why waste the vaccine on a healthy person.. covid affects the weak and frail.. the rest, isolated for 14 days..job done

Why won’t a leader of a country not take it. Isn’t the whole reason for leaders to set an example

It's for humans not horses.

Smart.

Yeah New Zealand are really screaming out for a vaccine
