Covid-19: GPs turned away from spare vaccines

South Auckland GPs were turned away when they tried to get vaccinated this weekend after spare doses became available. The city's district health boards had leftover vaccine after a week of border worker roll outs so offered it to health workers. Several frontline GPs who turned up to get a dose were denied one, leaving many distraught. Health correspondent Rowan Quinn has this report.
