On the final day at Te Kaika’s outdoor vaccination and testing clinic in Victoria Rd, Dunedin, yesterday are (from left) site lead for the day Keisha Su’a, clinical manager Melanie Solia, nurse Pamela Nisbet and healthcare assistants Anita Samasoni and Talei Pelasio.

More than 50,000 Covid-19 vaccine doses were delivered since the site opened last year.

The drive-through centre was sometimes busy, as a photo from February this year shows.

About 15,000 Covid-19 PCR tests and 3000 paediatric injections were conducted this year and about 500 flu jabs in the past month.

Te Kaika’s Oamaru drive-through site also closed yesterday and the Queenstown site last Thursday.
