A vaccination centre at 203 Leith Place was due to open on August 23, but days beforehand a community outbreak of the Delta variant put New Zealand into alert level 4, and the opening was postponed.
The Waikato District Health Board’s Covid vaccination programme lead Maree Munro said the centre willl open once the Waikato returns to level2 lockdown.
In the South Waikato District, 39.2 per cent of people have had their first dose, and 21.9 per cent are fully vaccinated, Waikato DHB figures show.
That compares to figures of 51.3 per cent and 25.3 per cent across the whole Waikato DHB area.
