Dr. Ashley Bloomfield is content with his handling of Covid-19.
He's finishing up as Director General of Health tomorrow, after leading New Zealand through its response to the pandemic.
In his final interview with Mike Hosking, Bloomfield says aspects of the response became highly politicised.
But he says he's always tried to act independently in the decisions he's made and the advice he's given the Government.
He says he can put his hand on his heart and say he served as a public servant, and in accordance with the public service values.
