New Zealand's first MIQ worker to receive the Covid-19 vaccination has spoken of the human cost of working on the frontline battling the deadly virus. Shortly after she got her vaccination, health bosses confirmed there were no new community cases, but two more in MIQ facilities. Another Jet Park staffer who got the jab spoke of the mental toll and stigma attached to working on the frontline. Drew Leafa said the stigma and how they could be victimised by working on the frontline was tough. "We are confident about the safety of this vaccine ... there is nothing to worry about with this vaccine," Turner said.
