Kia ora Jai,  

  

Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the
Act) to the Ministry of Health (the Ministry) on 21 December 2021 for:  

​"Hospitalisations and Deaths in NZ related to:
The Heart
Cardiovascular Disease
Coronary Disease
Myocarditis
Pericarditis
Anxiety
Non Covid Respiratory Issues
Cancer
Autoimmune Diseases
Alzhiemers/ Dementia
Endothelial Disease
Other (If there are 'other' classifications that are blanket
classifications, then those too)

For 2017 through December 2021
If you have a complete data dump of all hospitalisations and deaths split
out by all causes, then I don't mind wading through it. Essentially I'm
looking at the different organs, the circulatory system and the nervous
system."  

  

The data you have requested is publicly available and can be found below. 

  

Mortality data:

Hospitalisations:

​Should you have further questions, the Ministry's Data Services team can
be contacted at:  [3][email address]. 

  

Under section 28(3) of the Act you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to
review any decisions made under this request. The Ombudsman may be
contacted by email at: [4][email address] or by calling 0800
802 602.
