I think we're running out of vaccines, pending delivery of second batch

Appointments will also be required for vaccinations in all DHB areas.

The herald has been pretty crap on reporting this.

No, will not run out. They will scale to ensure that.
But supply and vaccinations are going to be very constrained until at least mid-July based on current scheduled deliveries in the Herald article; ie.
"Bloomfield said there will be enough weekly arrivals of vaccine shipments for DHBs to deliver 500,000 doses in the next five weeks."
As per plot below, that is lower than the recent rate of vaccinations. And even that will leave just ~225k doses on hand as at 15 July, assuming deliveries per the schedule outlined in the Herald article (1.5m doses by mid-July).
Margin between NZ and AU looks likely to grow significantly over the next 5 weeks?
We may not run out of vaccines but it has been acknowledged this afternoon by everybody but the Govt that things are going to be very very tight for at least the next month.
I don't know why they can't just be honest about things, say we're in a pandemic and we're not at the front of the queue and that there is a shortage of vaccines.. rather than trying to deny everything.

Thing to remember about NZ vs Aussie is that (most) people over 50 in Aussie are getting AZ and have a 12 week period between 1st and 2nd doses.

Worth noting this Newsroom story was written before official announcements this afternoon about the vaccine shortage.
my son got his first vaccine shot today, he and his friend just turned up at the vaccination centre and was given his first shot and a appointment for his second one in 3 weeks , he said there was no one there which is why he went in. [he is 29]
Common sense is not as common as you think.

""
In its report, the agency accused the company of “false or misleading” estimates of the clinical performance of certain configurations of the test, saying the estimates did not accurately reflect the performance of the diagnostic devices during clinical studies.

The accuracy of the Innova tests also falls dramatically when administered by self-trained, non-healthcare workers versus lab scientists.
