Covid-19 vaccines are rolling out but do you think we need free meningococcal vaccines as well?

Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Tamariki close to a "lovely boy" who died from meningococcal disease have been unable to get the vaccine because of cost. Takarua Ngakuru​, 6, from Northland's Tautoro​, died on February 13 from what has now been confirmed as meningococcal disease, although the strain is unknown. But those close to him cannot afford the vaccine - do you think this needs to change?
