Health Minister Andrew Little was in Auckland today to see the first shipment of Molnupiravir .
It's our second oral anti-viral medicine - and will be available through prescription from early May.
Four medicines are already used in hospitals and another anti-viral has been in use for home treatment this month.
Another medicine to protect people from Covid-19 who can't have vaccines is waiting for Medsafe approval.
