Disabled Māori undecided about getting the vaccine-- get vaccinated!

That’s the message from the people at Te Roopu Taurima. They want their communities to know that:

  • the vaccine is safe
  • vaccinated people are less likely to infect others or end up in hospital or die if they catch the virus
  • being vaccinated helps keep yourself and your whānau safe, especially children who are not able to be vaccinated
  • vaccinated people will have more freedom to mix and mingle with friends and whānau
  • fully vaccinated people can use their Vaccine Pass to access activities, events and facilities that unvaccinated people will have restricted access to.

Te Roopu Taurima's series of videos feature the voice of Māori tāngata whaikaha, their whānau and employees. Their messages about the vaccine are moving and consistent: it's all about protecting one another.
