WellSouth CEO Andrew Swanson Dobbs says many in the community have travelled to other clinics – Te Anau, Gore, Winton, Invercargill - but this is to provide an option for those unable to travel.
"We are very happy to support residents and general practices in this area to have easier access to the Covid vaccine and help to keep all our communities as safe as possible," he says.
