After more than two years without a match, the Black Ferns have jetted off to Europe this afternoon for some much needed game time ahead of next year's World Cup.'

But while they're leaving for now, issues on New Zealand soil remain very much in focus for some of the players.

Using social media as their tool, Te Kura Ngata-Aerengamate and Krystal Murray have been doing their bit to lift the Covid vaccination rate in Māori communities.

The pair has even put their musical talents to use in a video on social media. Clay Wilson caught up with Te Kura and Krystal at Auckland Airport today, to find out why they're using their voices to encourage tangata whenua to get out and get vaccinated and about their video.
