New Zealand officials are keeping a close eye on Britain's Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine roll-out, before a vaccination campaign is launched here. Britain began vaccinating its population on Tuesday, starting with the elderly and frontline workers. However, two NHS workers have reported adverse reactions on the first day of the programme and now those with a history of significant allergies are being told not to get the vaccine.
