Abstract

Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) is a cluster of three islands in the South Pacific temperate climate zone. At the 2018 Census, NZ had a population of five million, predominantly European, with 16.7% indigenous Māori, 8.3% Pasifika peoples, 15.7% Asian people and 1.6% of people from other countries. More than a quarter of the NZ population was born overseas and another one million people, who have citizenship or residency, live overseas. These demographic, ethnic and residency characteristics have created pressure points in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
