One former Finance Minister has voiced support for introducing a comprehensive vaccination program aimed towards older New Zealanders.
A new report has revealed that a publicly funded vaccination program for the flu, shingles and RSV directed at over-65s would create an economic benefit of over $1 billion over four years.
