Erika Whittome made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health
Response to this request is long overdue. By law Ministry of Health should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.
From: Erika Whittome
Dear Ministry of Health,
There is a report from the Comirnaty manufacturer, Pfizer called:
Nonclinical Evaluation Report
BNT162b2 [mRNA] COVID-19 vaccine
(COMIRNATYTM)
Submission No: PM-2020-05461-1-2
https://www.tga.gov.au/sites/default/fil...
Date January 2021
Please confirm whether Pfizer or any other entity has provided information consistent with the information, concerns and data contained in the above report to any New Zealand health or government agency. If so please confirm which agency and on what date these concerns were addressed.
This is an excerpt from the report's summary (page 4) with a concern of long term immunity:
BNT162b2 (V9) was found to be immunogenic in non-clinical studies in mice, rats and rhesus macaques. BNT162b2 (V9) induced humoral and cellular immune responses in mice and monkeys. However, antibodies and T cells in monkeys declined quickly after 5 weeks after the second dose of BNT162b2 (V9) raising long term immunity concerns.
Yours faithfully,
Erika Whittome
