Matt Tso Reporter from Community News

​A pop-up clinic in Hawke’s Bay will encourage Māori and Pasifika whānau to get a flu immunisation, with the option of a Covid-19 test.

​A pop-up clinic in Hawke’s Bay will encourage Māori and Pasifika whānau to get a flu immunisation, with the option of a Covid-19 test.

The clinic will be located at King’s Church in Meeanee on Saturday, 29 August, from 10am to 2pm.

Updates will be posted on Hawke’s Bay DHB’s Facebook page if wait times are longer than expected or supplies run out sooner than anticipated.

Hawke’s Bay District Health Board medical officer of health Dr Nick Jones, said the DHB had arranged the pop-up clinic to remove barriers to immunisation for Māori and Pasifika communities.

“In line with the push underway nationally to increase immunisation uptake among Māori and Pasifika communities, we are really encouraging whānau to come along, get a flu shot and at the same time take the opportunity to be swabbed for Covid-19 because we know these communities have been the most affected by Auckland’s outbreak,” Jones said.

Meanwhile, free Covid-19 testing centres remain open throughout the region, operating in Napier, Hastings, Wairoa and Central Hawke’s Bay.

“We strongly encourage people displaying cold or flu symptoms to call one of the testing centres below, or their GP, to be triaged for testing, which is free,” Dr Jones said.

* Napier: 06 650 4000 open 9am-5pm Mon-Sun.
* Hastings: 06 281 2644 open 8am-8pm Mon-Sun.
* Wairoa: 06 838 8333 open 8.30am-5pm Mon-Fri.
*Central Hawke’s Bay residents need to be referred by their doctor or phone
Healthline on: 0800 358 5453.

She has no popular mandate. It will be interesting to see if she is also a copy cat of other DHB's that promote a race based advantage for Maori and Pacifica in not being subjected to qualifying by any standard for elective surgery. Seemingly elective surgery available on demand ahead of others on account of race. Perhaps this quote gives us a clue.


"It's never a comfortable space ... it's always a balance, and at times there will be parts of the community who will experience less service than they have, and there'll be parts of the community who will experience more."
"Then again. Improving the health outcomes for Māori and Pasifika communities, which make up more than 50 percent of the region's population; better access to mental health and addiction services and reduced waiting times for elective surgeries were among her her top priorities, Brooking said."
Curious assertion I never thought that Maori and Pacifica made up more than 50%of HB's population but hey who would doubt the word of a political appointee to head a DHB.

With unseasonably warm and windy conditions this weekend, Fire and Emergency New Zealand is asking Hawke’s Bay farmers to think twice before undertaking burn-offs.

Principal Rural Fire Officer Trevor Mitchell says with temperatures expected to get close to 20 degrees, anyone planning on lighting a fire needs to be cautious.

"Anywhere where dry grass is present has an escalated fire risk. This can cause a fire to quickly spread and cause unnecessary callouts."

If anyone in the community sees a fire that looks like it is getting out of control, don’t hesitate to call 111.
