Thank you for your request for official information received on 20 March

"Regarding the Code of Rights which is upheld in NZ and specifically the
right to be fully informed when receiving medical treatment i am
requesting to see what documents and information Healthcare workers are
being trained in and to pass on to prospective covid vaccine recipients.

I would also like to know if they are trained to inform people how and
where they can report any adverse reactions they may have to covid
vaccines. And also in being fully informed are they also informed of how
many other countries have either refused to allow the covid vaccines to be
used or discontinued their use and why.
Also I wd like to know what responsibility and accountability is taken by
the ministry of health if healthworkers are not trained to fully inform
covid vaccine recipients.....especially since the vaccine companies
themselves have claimed no liability for adverse effects or even death of
covid vaccine recipients"

 

The Ministry's reference number for your request is: H202103246.
