I hope we can eventually get it to 95% or higher for full vaccinations, given that we usually see a huge influx of visitors over the holidays.
Quite a few Whangārei suburbs make the top 20 at the moment. See image below for a screenshot of Ministry of Health data, as of 3-Nov 2021. The percentages are hiding in the two rightmost columns, as the number of doses per 1,000 people.
