    Ashley Bloomfield says flu cases remain relatively low across the country

    Ashley Bloomfield says flu cases remain relatively low across the country


    He says it largely reflects the fact MIQ is preventing people bringing the virus in the county.

    Flu levels are usually much higher at this time of year.

    The Director General of Health says people should still be getting the flu vaccination - and says his is booked.

    Bloomfield still won't reveal when he is getting the Covid jab.
