COVID-19 Vaccine - Group 3 text notifications

Gemma Elizabeth from Hutt Valley District Health Board

In recent days, we’ve been working with medical practices and primary health organisations to send text messages, emails and letters to people in our region, letting them know they are in Group 3 for the vaccine rollout and will receive an invitation to book by the end of July.

To work out who is in Group 3, we used the medical records held by your GP.

Group 3 is very broad – around 200,000 people in Wellington, Porirua, the Hutt Valley and the Kāpiti Coast. Some of you may not have realised you are eligible in Group 3. If you got a text, you’ll be invited to book soon, and we urge you to take up the opportunity.

If you are in Group 3 but haven’t received a notification, we will provide information about how you can register later this month, and you will still be able to be vaccinated before the Group 4 (general population) rollout.
