Social distancing

Tess made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

Response to this request is long overdue. By law Ministry of Health should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.

From: Tess

Dear Ministry of Health,

Please provide the studies or research that show social distancing reduces the spread of COVID-19?

Please only provide evidence that was used by the government to implement social distancing.

Yours faithfully,

Tess

Kia ora Tess,

 

Thank you for your two requests for official information received on 21

"Please provide evidence that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine Comirnaty
reduces any serious outcomes and hospital admissions of COVID-19.

Please include only official research from Pfizer or other research that
the government has used in the justification of the use of the Comirnaty
vaccine within New Zealand.”

 

“Please provide the studies or research that show social distancing
reduces the spread of COVID-19?

Please only provide evidence that was used by the government to implement
social distancing.”

 

The Ministry of Health has consolidated these requests with your active
request for official information under reference number: H202112578.

 

As required under the Official Information Act 1982, the Ministry will
endeavour to respond to your request no later than 15 October 2021, being

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic response, the Ministry is experiencing
significantly higher volumes of queries and requests for information. If
we are unable to respond to your request within this time frame, we will
notify you of an extension of that time frame.

 

If you have any queries related to this request, please do not hesitate to
