Covid-19: Can I get the Covid vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?
Unsure whether you can get the Covid-19 vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?
Here's your answer neighbours:
People wanting to get both the flu jab and a Covid-19 vaccine heading into winter will be required to leave a two-week gap between the vaccines.
And those receiving a measles (MMR) booster will need to leave a four-week gap between the Pfizer vaccine and the MMR jab when MMR is given first, under advice from the Ministry of Health.
This is because having a gap between different types of vaccinations – especially considering the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is still “relatively new” – helps authorities be sure about any side effects that may occur.
The country’s flu and Covid-19 vaccine roll-outs are both due to ramp up from May, with the influenza vaccine becoming available to under 65s, and the Covid-19 vaccine rolling out to approximately 1.7 million people in group 3.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
