Couching my words carefully, why does a certain ethnicity lag behind? What's the root cause?
As a team of 5 million, we've all had oodles of chances to be vaccinated. Given that the Māori over 50's are comparable with the rest of the population, that would suggest that access isn't the problem, so its the mindset of the "youngsters" at fault. Is social media behind it, like most things these days? 
There's been a lot of moaning from the likes of the Māori Party, but I'm not sure what they want to happen exactly. There's no magic bullet. A lot of the vaccine advertising on TV has been aimed at Māori and Pacific, so they're obviously not watching it. Maybe Ash needs to do some TikToks.
First dose %s

Asian 95%+
European 87%
Pacific 82%
M─üori 68%
