“The notes, memos, advice include the analysis of the Pay-per-dose data done by Health
Officials including Leigh Donoghue, his team, any experts engaged by Health New Zealand

Health New Zealand have stated the data is misinformation yet have not refuted the data,
so I want any and all conclusions on the data including the personnel at Health NZ or the
experts who have reviewed their data and what their conclusions are”
