VACCINE PURCHASING & APPROVALS

   The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine received Medsafe approval. It has been shown to be about
   95% effective at preventing symptomatic infection.

   Four shipments have arrived in NZ, with weekly deliveries planned.

   Vaccinations commenced on 20 Feb with high-priority border and Managed Isolation and
   Quarantine (MIQ) workers, and their household contacts being vaccinated. 18,000 NZers
   have now received their first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

   Total Pfizer order now 10 million doses. The original agreement was for 1.5 million
   doses. An advance purchase agreement has now been been signed by Government for
   additional 8.5 million doses.

   Enough for 5 million people to get two shots needed to be fully vaccinated against
   COVID-19.

   Every New Zealander has access to same vaccine. Remaining 8.5 million doses of vaccine
   are expected to arrive in NZ during the second half of 2021.

  NB: The process for immunising utilises a number of current state processes. The key point of difference to current state is on the physical good and storage and distribution of the Covid vaccine. As we ramp up the number of
  vaccinations taking place, the mode for customers being communicated to and booking into getting a vaccine will change.

DISTRIBUTION

    Once a dose of the vaccine is warmed above -70 degrees, it expires in five days. Once
    removed from fridge it must be mixed within two hours, then used within six hours.
    Ensuring we have people on hand to be vaccinated is important – which is not always
    easy coordinating the many agencies and employers.

                                                The large box is what is delivered to vaccine
                                                providers.

                                                The smaller boxes contain the vaccine vials
                                                which will need to be stored in usual cold
                                                chain.

                                                The boxes will come with 5, 15 or 195 vials.
                                                                                                7

WORKFORCE

   Planning for extra 2,000 – 3,000 full-time (or equivalent) vaccinators to be
   trained and available. Registrations via Surge Workforce database. At 11 Mar,
   4,928 people registered.

   Partnered with IMAC to deliver education, training and support for COVID-19
   vaccinators. Training commenced 10 Feb. As of 11 Mar, 989 vaccinators had
   completed training.

   Training is currently available to nurses and pharmacists to do generic
   vaccinator training – required before commencing the COVID-19 Vaccinator
   Education Course (Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine training and CIR training)

   Training will be opened to primary and community care workforce in next
   few weeks.

                                                                                   8

WORKFORCE CAPACITY
How many vaccinators do we need?
• 650 FTE by early April 2021
• 1,800 June
• 2,000 – 3,000 full-time (or equivalent) August-November 2021

Strategies:
     Vaccinator workforce – 14,000 people

     COVID-19 Surge Workforce – individuals who are willing to be vaccinators.
     This includes retired health professionals or others not currently in the health
     workforce. DHBs/providers will be able to access this pool as required.

     Use of other regulated workforce who may be able to vaccinate with little or
     no change to scope of practice, e.g. paramedics, phlebotomists, anaesthetic
     technicians.

POST EVENT – ROLE IN COVID-19 VACCINE ROLLOUT
   Monitor, evaluate and report on adverse events, effectiveness and coverage of the CVIP
   Three sub-pillars of work:

   ■   Vaccine safety

   ■   Vaccine effectiveness

   ■   Population protection

   Adverse Events Following Immunisation (AEFI) reporting

   Existing system: Medsafe and Centre for Adverse Reactions Monitoring (CARM)

   ■   Increased capacity for CVIP, including enhanced reporting mechanisms

   ■   Reporting through CIR and CARM website

   Establishment of COVID-19 Vaccine Independent Safety Monitoring Board
   ■   Panel of experts from clinical medicine, microbiology, epidemiology and biostatistics to support assessment of AEFIs and COVID-19 vaccines

   ■   Recommendations and advice to CARM, Medsafe, CVIP and Ministry of Health

   Initial reports received for Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) have generally described anxiety reactions.
   We are now starting to get reports of injection site reactions and systemic reactions (reactogenic reactions), these are
   expected for all vaccines.

COMMUNICATIONS & ENGAGEMENT

    Integrated approach including; paid advertising, media, stakeholder
    engagement, events, and development and distribution of collateral to
    inform New Zealanders about the vaccination programme

    To date, communications have been channelled directly to those who will
    be receiving the vaccination in the first stages

    Within the next week a paid media campaign will start that will inform
    New Zealanders on the vaccination plan

    As the vaccine programme rolls-out, the advertising campaign will gain
    momentum with a focus on encouraging all of Aotearoa to get vaccinated

    We will be working with a range of agencies to ensure the campaign
    resonates with different audiences

    We will be directing people to covid19.govt.nz to find out more info
