Tangata Whenua made this Official Information request to Ministry for Primary Industries

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Tangata Whenua to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Tangata Whenua

Dear Ministry for Primary Industries,

Dear MPI,

Are pharmaceutical companies responsible for manufacturing vaccines make donations to / sponsor / contribute / or otherwise provide funding to the new, state-of-the-art national biocontainment laboratory in Wallaceville, Upper Hutt.

The construction of the facility, which will hold samples of diseases like anthrax, avian flu, rabies, and Covid-19, began in 2015 and cost the Ministry for Primary Industries $87 million.

Yours faithfully,

Tangata Whenua

Dear Veronica Herrera,
Former CDC Director Dr Robert Redfield was interviewed by CNN about the origin of Sars Cov2 and Dr Redfield believes that Sars Cov2 escaped from a bio lab in Wuhan. I hope NZ is making improvements on the bio labs around the world that are not secure enough to contain the viruses they are studying.

In the past 100 years (possibly more) only countries with bio containment labs seem to be largely responsible for viral outbreaks. I wonder how long before NZ is accused of such negligence and risk to public safety, now that we have a national bio containment lab.

What safety measures will be put in place to protect the public in the unfortunate event that a virus escapes from the bio lab in Wallaceville? Or will the public be co-erced into trialling out experimental vaccines to keep the whole world safe?

Yours sincerely,

Tangata Whenua
