By Rowan Quinn for RNZSome South Auckland GPs were turned away when they tried to get vaccinated for Covid at the weekend after spare doses became available. But several South Auckland GPs who turned up to get a dose were denied one, leaving them distraught. The College of GPs president Samantha Murton said one of those turned away was a doctor in his 60s who was swabbing every day in his South Auckland clinic. South Auckland doctor Api Talemaitoga said his colleagues were under the pump, dealing with huge testing numbers and potential Covid-19 cases every day. The DHBs needed to be flexible and change their plans to react to outbreaks, he said.
