New Zealand Will Give Free Coronavirus Vaccines To Residents, Neighboring Nations

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced Thursday that the government will purchase two new COVID-19 vaccines from pharmaceutical companies AstraZeneca and Novavax. The advance purchase gives every New Zealander the ability to be able to be vaccinated.

If the vaccines are proven to be safe and effective, the immunization campaign is expected to begin with border officers and other essential workers at the beginning of 2021.
