Response to your request for official information
Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) on 17 January
2022 for:
"-
Are vaccinators required to warn people that they could potentially die from the
experimental gene therapy
-
If the vaccinator does not warn the person could they be held legally liable
-
If a
vaccinator injects a
child (or anybody for that matter) as
will be happening from the
17th January what legal recourse does the victims family have if that person was
to die
-
How will the victims family hold the person responsible accountable
-
Could a civil action be taken against the vaccinator"
As you have been advised on multiple occasions, the COVID-19 vaccine is not experimental
gene therapy.
Vaccinations are provided in accordance with the Code of Consumer Rights (www.hdc.org.nz)
and other requirements on vaccinators. The Code includes rights of health consumers to
services of an appropriate standard and the right to be fully informed, as well as the right of
complaint to the Health and Disability Commissioner.
In the event of any death where there may be considered to be a link to vaccination, this would
be referred to the coroner. In respect of any legal actions (either criminal or civil) in regard to a
vaccine-related death, where there is basis for this, it would be likely to flow from any coronial
investigation.
Adverse actions as a result of treatment may constitute a treatment injury under the Accident
Compensation Act 2001. As a result, it is not considered that there would be any basis for a
legal claim for compensation (other than through ACC) relating to the treatment, except for
exemplary damages in the event of significant negligence as part of care.
