Transfer of your request for official information Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) to Manatū Hauora
(the Ministry of Health) on 18 March 2023. You requested:
“Please provide all hospitalisations and deaths information broken down by age group and
covid vaccination status from 2020-2023.”
This information is more closely connected to the functions of Te Whatu Ora – Health New
Zealand. I have therefore transferred your request to Te Whatu Ora under section 14(b)(ii) of
the Act. You can expect a response from Te Whatu Ora in due course.
In the meantime, you may be interested in the COVID-19 case demographics data that is
published at:
www.health.govt.nz/covid-19-novel-coronavirus/covid-19-data-and-statistics/covid-
19-case-demographics
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:
[email address] or by calling 0800 802 602.
