Travelers wanting to travel to New Zealand will learn today whether MIQ will be extended once again in an attempt to stave off Omicron.
Cabinet met on Monday to explore steps to limit the danger of Omicron spreading into the community, which might mean that plans to phase out MIQ for fully vaccinated New Zealanders are postponed or abandoned, and MIQ stays be stretched again.
At 2:00 p.m. today, Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins will release the results.
After MedSafe awarded preliminary clearance for Pfizer's rollout to youngsters, Cabinet was scheduled to determine whether and when to begin immunizations for 5-11-year-olds.
There will also be discussions on whether the existing six-month interval between vaccine booster doses could be reduced. Other countries have cut it to four to five months.
Experts have asked New Zealand's government to postpone the reopening of the country's ports.
