A New Zealand father has been banned from having contact with his three children until the whole family is vaccinated, a family court judge has ruled.

The judgement, made on February 10 by Justice Anthony Grieg, noted that the middle child, aged 11, was “at risk of serious illness/hospitalisation/death in the event that he catches COVID-19.”
