COVID-19 inoculations and culpability for human rights violations, crimes against humanity, and/or war crimes
ASE made this Official Information request to Jacinda Ardern
Response to this request is long overdue. By law Jacinda Ardern should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.
From: ASE
To Jacinda Ardern,
To the extent that it is practicable, this request extends to all persons, boards, councils, committees, subcommittees, organisations, bodies, or individuals advising on such matters, or otherwise exerting influence in any capacity. If this request relates to information that you have reason to believe may be held by any other persons or bodies, I trust that you will forward this request to them and advise accordingly.
Is Jacinda Ardern aware of any long-term safety data for any COVID-19 inoculations? If so, what is that data?
Is Jacinda Ardern aware of any long-term efficacy data for any COVID-19 inoculations? If so, what is that data?
Considering what is and what is not known of long-term safety and efficacy of COVID-19 inoculations, what consideration has Jacinda Ardern given to the status of COVID-19 inoculations as “experimental” medical treatments? What scientific and medical basis does Jacinda Ardern have for asserting that COVID-19 inoculations are not “experimental” medical treatments? If this has not been considered by Jacinda Ardern, then why has this not been considered?
What contingency plans have been considered by Jacinda Ardern, if COVID-19 inoculations may prove to be unsafe, ineffective, unnecessary, and/or otherwise harmful to personal health and/or public health (as “public health” is generally understood)? If this has not been considered by Jacinda Ardern, then why has this not been considered?
In consideration of positions, polices, and/or legislation (including, but not limited to messaging and medical advice, collective punishments, and segregation) which may appear as intent to use force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior forms of constraint or coercion to encourage, incentivize, or otherwise promote COVID-19 inoculations, what consideration has Jacinda Ardern given to the effects of such positions, polices, and/or legislation respecting healthcare providers' legal and ethical obligations to empower their patients to exercise their rights of informed consent (including rights of informed refusal)? How do such positions, polices, and/or legislation respect patients' rights regarding informed consent (including rights of informed refusal)? If this has not been considered by Jacinda Ardern, then why has this not been considered?
In consideration of positions, polices, and/or legislation (including, but not limited to messaging and medical advice, collective punishments, and segregation) which may appear as intent to use force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior forms of constraint or coercion to encourage, incentivize, or otherwise promote COVID-19 inoculations, what consideration has Jacinda Ardern given to the effects of such positions, polices, and/or legislation respecting individual human rights (including human rights as recognised under national and international frameworks), such as individual human rights to privacy and confidentiality of medical information; and individual human rights to refuse medical treatment, with or without reason? If this has not been considered by Jacinda Ardern, then why has this not been considered?
In consideration of the questions raised above, and related matters, what consideration has Jacinda Ardern given to the possibility that positions, polices, and/or legislation (including, but not limited to messaging and medical advice, collective punishments, and segregation) which may appear as intent to use force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior forms of constraint or coercion to encourage, incentivize, or otherwise promote COVID-19 inoculations, may expose proponents, advocates, and/or actors on behalf of such positions, polices, and/or legislation to culpability for human rights violations, crimes against humanity, and/or war crimes? If this has not been considered by Jacinda Ardern, then why has this not been considered?
Thank you,

Jacinda Ardern, you were.made aware on your public Facebook page last year that over 350 people responded to you when you asked if anyone had had an adverse side effect from the Pfizer vaccine. Over 350 people answered your question with varying adverse side effects, some very serious such as Myocarditis, pericarditis, nerve damage, strokes. You or someone you knew promptly removed those comments from.your Facebook page without responding to these injured people. No further action by you regarding this has been followed up. Do you acknowledge and what is your response and what is going to be your action with regards to people with serious adverse side effects, and in some cases death from this Pfizer vaccine?
