Subject: Official Information request - New Zealand, Pfizer Relationship

 

Dear Ministry of Health,

Can you assure the public that there are no clauses in the contract
between the New Zealand Government, and Pfizer - that would require the
New Zealand government to change laws in order to honor the contract?

For example;

“if there are any laws or regulations in your country under which Pfizer
could be prosecuted, you agree to CHANGE THE LAW OR REGULATION to close
that off.”

Can you also assure the public that there are NO clauses within the
contract between the New Zealand government and Pfizer, that would limit
or (in any way) suppress the use of other treatments, such as Ivermectin.

Yours faithfully,

Anna McAfee
