Pfizer Vaccine
Andy Hooley made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health
Ministry of Health did not have the information requested.
From: Andy Hooley
Dear Ministry of Health,
I'd like information on the following regarding the Pfizer vaccine for the so called SarsCov3 coronavirus. I need specific answers here rather than pointing to a general source of information. These are important and life changing questions and need sufficiently informed direct answers.
How long does the vaccine protect you for? What is the length of time a mRNA vaccine is active for?
If a pregnant lady takes the vaccine will any component of the vaccine come through into the breast milk? What component will that be and what will be the effect on the growing baby?
If a pregnant lady takes the vaccine, what information and evidence do you have on how the baby will be affected?
Does the mRNA vaccine from Pfizer affect fertility in either men or women and what evidence do you have to support this?
If a person has had a immunological issue with other vaccines, what are the risks for another adverse reaction with this vaccine?
What evidence do you have that the vaccine is safe to use with other medications?
Yours faithfully,
Andy
From: OIA Requests
Kia ora

Regarding your questions about effecting babies via breast milk.
From CARM Safety Report #10 here https://www.medsafe.govt.nz/COVID-19/saf...
"There were also two reports of breastfed infants becoming unwell after their mother received the vaccine. One of the infants had an allergic reaction and the other infant had flu-like symptoms. Note that because these infants did not receive the vaccine, they are not included in the AEFI tables below."

It has now been clearly established that the spike protein contained in the Cominarty vaccine does in fact permeate other parts of the body via the blood circulation, so it is more than likely it will get into the breast milk.
