Informed Consent #12 - Adverse Effects Reporting
Annie Weston made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health
The request was refused by Ministry of Health.
From: Annie Weston
Dear Ministry of Health,
In NZ there are currently more deaths attributable to the Pfizer vaccine than from Covid-19.
My question please: why is there no Govt mandate to report adverse effects from the vaccines?
This is especially important now the Govt has mandated vaccination - surely the Govt will want to mitigate its responsibility for killing people.
Yours faithfully,
Annie Weston
From: OIA Requests

Kia ora Annie,
Thank you for your email.
Your first statement is incorrect and based on misinformation. There has
been one death linked to the COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine.
It is also important to note that while anyone can report an AEFI –
doctor, nurse, pharmacist, vaccinator, government agency, consumer, or
member of the public – reporting is voluntary. The form to do so is
available at: [1]https://report.vaccine.covid19.govt.nz/s/. Both the
Ministry and Medsafe encourage everyone to report AEFI.
While all AEFI occur after vaccination, that does not mean they are caused
by vaccination. That is why AEFI are investigated by the Centre for
Adverse Reactions Monitoring (CARM), at the University of Otago, which
undertakes pharmacovigilance in New Zealand under contract to the
Ministry. Reported adverse events for the COVID-19 vaccine are evaluated
according to whether they are serious or non-serious according to certain
criteria, such as if the person required hospitalisation. All reports are
verified to check that:
• The person had a COVID-19 vaccine
• There is an identifiable person in the report
• An adverse event following immunisation (AEFI) has been
reported
• There is a reporter who can be contacted for more
information
It is not uncommon that a report is received about the same event from
both the vaccinator and the consumer, so there are checks to ensure an
event is not reported twice.
Significant reports are medically assessed by CARM according to the World
Health Organization guidance and if needed follow up is conducted to seek
further information. Significant reports are also reviewed by the COVID-19
Vaccine Independent Safety Monitoring Board (CV-ISMB), which provides
expert advice on a potential link to the vaccine. All potential safety
signals investigated in New Zealand for the COVID-19 vaccine are presented
and discussed with the CV-ISMB, with Medsafe providing an update on these
in its regular safety report available
at: [2]www.medsafe.govt.nz/COVID-19/vaccine-report-overview.asp.
If the investigation of a new side effect of the COVID-19 vaccine is
found, this will be communicated to everyone through an alert
communication and an update to the data sheet and CMIS, for example, with
Medsafe’s report about myocarditis, available
at: [3]www.medsafe.govt.nz/safety/Alerts/comirnaty-myocarditis-alert.htm.
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: [4][email address] or by calling 0800
802 602.

Dear OIA Requests,
Thank you for your prompt reply.
The misinformation you refer to is from Medsafe's webpage:
"Up to and including 6 November 2021, a total of 103 deaths were reported to CARM after the administration of the Comirnaty vaccine."
I understand the average time to resolve these coronial cases is 540 days so in the meantime I'd like to be as informed as possible please before being coerced into taking an experimental vaccine and risking death.
I understand that AEFI reporting is voluntary hence my original question, here again:
Why is there no Govt mandate to report adverse effects from the vaccines?
Yours sincerely,
Annie Weston
From: OIA Requests
Kia ora Annie,
Thank you for your follow up email.
The sentence you have referred to below is for AEFIs after vaccination.
There has only been one linked death. Further information can be found
here: [1]https://www.health.govt.nz/news-media/me....
These are mainly coincidental events that people have reported. As
approximately 90 percent of the people in New Zealand over the age of 12
have now received at least one dose of the Comirnaty vaccine, there is a
high probability that anyone who has an illness or condition in New
Zealand will have been vaccinated.
While the Act allows New Zealanders to ask for information from Ministers
and government agencies, there is no requirement for agencies to prove or
provide an opinion or comment on a statement. Your last question appears
designed to engage in a debate about the Government’s COVID-19 vaccination
programme, rather than a request for official information. The Act does
not support requests where an opinion, comment, argument, or hypothetical
statement is put to the Ministry for response, couched as a request for
information. These questions are therefore refused under section 18(g) of
the Act on the grounds that the information sought is not held by the
Ministry.
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: [2][email address] or by calling 0800
802 602.

Dear Ministry of Health & OIA Requests,
It is a simple question on your policy - it does not require opinion, comment, argument, or a hypothetical statement.
I simply want to know why the Govt does not require anyone to report adverse effects from taking the vaccines.
Yours faithfully,
Annie Weston

As you are gaining from the responses to your OIA requests, Annie.
- MOH and medsafe are misinformation
- Nobody in NZ will be held responsible or accountable because 'they are following orders' from offshore
- 'Idependent' means conflicted
- Coincidental doesn't extend to those that have died or suffered severe ill health event while in a waiting facility to be injected because there aren't any
MOH and medsafe are using corporate defined frameworks for which they will not publish the top to bottom process for while repeatedly refusing to provide the risk analysis in age and specialist group stratified format
They are hiding the contract hiding the ingredients and hiding the risks profile while mandating the product destroying countless lives in a myriad of ways
Of course they are 'minimizing' the serious adverse events including death behind the imported guidance the people involved know they are, and that is now undeniable in the data collected during 2021
What would be the incentive of anyone involved in the disaster to speak up as opposed to the incentive not to do so?
Medsafe MOH parliament are all part of the industry following industry directives.
Thousands of deaths in the observed group are dismissed behind unpublished calculations and formulas , it all follows the same patterns while peoples lives are ruined and ended
Thousands of deaths are now recorded as 'monitored' as are tens of thousands of serious adverse events due underrporting factor which is also unpublished but exists.
