Kia ora Chuck,

 

Thank you for your request for official information which was transferred
from the Office of the Prime Minister and received by the Ministry of
Health on 16 December 2021.

You requested:

 

“Prime Minister you are on record as saying the following

"People who are vaccinated will still get Covid-19 it just means that they
won't get sick and they won't die".

Director General of Health you are on record as saying the following

"As I mentioned before in this forum and in a separate briefing on the
16th November as our vaccinations rise somewhat counterintuitively the
proportion of cases, hospitalizations and deaths rise amongst those who
are fully vaccinated".

I can provide video if required.

Pm can you please provide any and all evidence that supports your
assertion that the vaccine will mean you won't get sick.

Director General of Health - can you please provide any and all evidence,
briefings, papers that support your statement that deaths rise amongst
those that are fully vaccinated. Can you also provide any and all evidence
showing that more deaths in the vaccinated is a good thing for New
Zealand?

I was of the impression lockdowns, masks vaccines were all designed to
reduce death rates?

Director General of Health - can you please provide any and all
information that Medsafe or MOH hold and if there was a warning of the
Pfizer mRNA vaccine to the heart. A recent study titled "mRNA Covid
Vaccines Dramatically Increase Endothelial Inflammatory Markers and ACS
Risk as Measured by the PULS Cardiac Test - a Warning"

The study concludes that the mRNA vaccines dramatically increase
inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscles
which is likely to account for the increased number of adverse cardiac or
vascular events and side effects such as thrombosis, caridomyopathy and
others post vaccination".

The above effectively mirrors the side effects in the Medsafe reporting
and the very large amount of side effects the vaccine is doing to people.

Can you please provide any and all information that Medsafe holds that
refutes this study and states that the vaccine is safe for the heart?

Is a cost benefit analysis available to show that an increase risk in
heart attacks in the whole population versus limited immunity from the
vaccine has benefits that outweighs the risks?”

The Ministry received a secondary request for official information on 19
December 2021 for:

 

“Am I correct in saying

 

Are you telling people to get the vaccine because it works? Please provide
any and all documentation confirming that the Ministry of Health relied on
that confirmed two doses works.

 

If the vaccine worked then why are you telling vaccinated to get a
booster.  Please provide any and all documentation confirming that a
booster will work.  Boosters overseas haven’t seem to worked.  What
documentation can MOH provide that a booster will work?

 

So are you telling the unvaccinated to get a vaccine to protect the
vaccinated because the two shots haven’t worked for them? 

 

How is MOH comparing current cases as to who is getting infected? Did MOH
put anything in place in terms of trial groups before you started a
nationwide drug trial on New Zealanders?”

 

The Ministry of Health has consolidated your requests under reference
number: H202117691.

 

Please be advised that due dates for requests received from 29 November
2021 onwards take into account the following periods:

 

Christmas (25 December 2021)

Summer Holidays (25 December to 15 January)

New Year's Day (1 January 2022)

Day after News Year's Day (2 January 2022)

 

Your request has been logged and you can expect a reply no later than 03
February 2022 as required under the Official Information Act 1982.

 

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
