From: A.j sheppard
Dear Jacinda Ardern,
It is of great interest to the public to ensure the prime minister abides by her own advice and rules through covid times especially due to the fact you travel lots and interacts with thousands of members of the public.
I request the following information about the prime minister.
1.How many covid 19 tests has the prime minister undergone since february 2020?
Have all the tests been pcr/ nasal swab or some other test (rapid antigen etc)?
2.How many scans of the covid 19 tracer app has the prime minister made since the introduction of the app?
3.Can you please provide a monthly breakdown as to the number/amount of qr scans/sign ins the prime minister has made via the covid 19 tracer app each month since it has been in use?
5.Has the prime minister ever returned a positive result for a covid 19 test of any kind including any false positive results?
Yours faithfully,
A.j sheppard
