I like how pragmatic Air NZ’s been today with their new rules for domestic flights. But we’re probably not used to the next bit, which is that Air NZ says if passengers aren’t jabbed, they need to get a test within three days of their flight. And the trouble for us is, we already have shortages in most of those job areas: doctors, nurses, midwives, teachers. So, if it gets to a point where we’re in real trouble with staffing shortages, I’d encourage the Government to take a leaf out of Air NZ’s book and use the testing option as a back up. And good on Air NZ for showing the way on this.
