The first batch of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine has arrived in New Zealand.

Sixty-thousand doses of the vaccine arrived on a Singapore Airlines flight from Belgium.

That's enough for 30,000 people as the vaccine is delivered over two doses.

New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says this is more than enough doses to vaccinate their frontline workforce over the coming weeks.

The vaccine's rollout is still planned to start on Saturday this weekend
