Cainan's story: from anti-vaccine to "get vaxxed"
Cainan was an anti-vaxxer – until he got Covid. Now he wants you to get vaccinated.

Cainan is in construction. He was anti-vaccine. He thought COVID-19 was "bullshit" ... until he ended up in Middlemore last week, struggling to breathe.
Now he wants you to get vaccinated.
The Accord is sharing his story to encourage vaccine-hesitant and vaccine-resistant construction workers to think again.

Accord Roadmap for construction
Vaccination and testing are key to the ongoing operation of construction. The Accord is working with industry leaders, CHASNZ and government on a roadmap that would allow construction to continue in all but the most challenging circumstances. The roadmap addresses the need for reliable certification of vaccination and testing.
