Covid-19 vaccination Advertising by Influencers
Erika Whittome made this Official Information request to Health New Zealand
Currently waiting for a response from Health New Zealand, they must respond promptly and normally no later than (details and exceptions).
From: Erika Whittome
Dear Health New Zealand,
I refer you to this request https://fyi.org.nz/request/27326/respons...
…in which Danielle Coe at Health NZ says “I am, however, able to advise that Health NZ has not paid influencers or sports figures to promote COVID-19 vaccination since July 2022.”
How much money exactly was paid to many influencers prior to July 2022 for influencers and sports figures to promote Covid 19 vaccination?
Please share which DHB paid for this (given HNZ started around June 2022), the monetary amount, the influencer or company name and the date of the advert.
DBHs keep financial records for 7 years+ so this should all be in the financials system.
Yours faithfully,
Erika Whittome
