Dr Ashley Bloomfield now Sir Ashley Bloomfield has become a familiar face to all New Zealanders in the last three years, after fronting up hundreds of daily Covid-19 press conferences and keeping Kiwis up to date with the latest numbers and advice on how to stay safe in the pandemic.
His quick wit and occasional eyebrow raising made headlines and turned Sir Ashley into one of the most iconic faces of New Zealand television.
It was announced this month that he will take on a new role in the new year, as a professor at the University of Auckland, where he’ll help establish and then chair its new Public Policy Impact Institute.
