Subject: Official Information request - Covid-19 Virus Risk of Myocarditis
greather than Risk of Myocarditis from Vaccine

Dear Ministry of Health,

Please provide any and all evidence, research, reports local and
international, expert opinions, justification that supports the following
statement

"COVID-19 infection increases the risk of myocarditis substantially more
than COVID-19
vaccination" - what information has been relied on that Medsafe where you
can say the above statement

All of the reports relied on by the Ministry of Health whereby they can
say this.  Just a few additional points

Myocarditis Cases in NZ
2019-2020 - 39
2020-2021 - 66 (
2021-2022 TBC, but per the Medsafe reporting for AEFI's record Myocarditis
as a total of 405 cases for the financial year.  This is an increase of
928% if we take the number from the 2019-2020 financial year, and an
increase of 507% from 2020-2021.  Please note Covid was around in
2020-2021.

Are you able to seperate out the following data.

Specifically looking at this year

2021-2022 - Total number of myocarditis cases - And if the person was
vaccinated

eg cases 401 - vaccinated Yes 401 - unvaccinated No 0

Or whatever the case numbers look like.

Please also provide the

Life Expectancy of people diagnosed with Myocarditis - eg average life
expectancy, expected life from diagnoses - eg 5 years
Treatment - Please provide medical treatments etc
Proportion of Myocarditis Patients that require heart transplants or they
will likely die

Are you also able to provide, given that we know the majority of New
Zealanders are vaccinated, how will MOH determine cause of Myocarditis as
from Covid-19 or from the vaccine.

I realise you are now caught up in a web of lies and deceit, but don't you
think it is time to stop this charade and start saving our children rather
than destroying their lives with this experiment - enough damage has been
done already - and please don't say the benefits outweigh the risks when
MOH can't point to one Risk Benefit analysis and per normal adverse events
from a Medicine every time a safety signal is report there is a
requirement for a benefit risk assessment.  It appears this doesn't relate
to this Pfizer therapy.  Why are they above the law?

Evidence is quickly mounting up against public officials, and the public
will be super angry as more and more children drop dead.

Yours faithfully,
Chris

Kia ora Chris, 

 

Thank you for your request for official information to the Manatū Hauora
Ministry of Health (the Ministry), on 8 August 2022 for the following: 

 

Please provide any and all evidence, research, reports local and
international, expert opinions, justification that supports the following
statement

"COVID-19 infection increases the risk of myocarditis substantially more
than COVID-19 vaccination" - what information has been relied on that
Medsafe where you can say the above statement

All of the reports relied on by the Ministry of Health whereby they can
say this. 

 

All reports of myocarditis and pericarditis that the Centre for Adverse
Reactions Monitoring (CARM) receives are published regularly in the
Medsafe Safety Report, publicly available here:
[1]https://www.medsafe.govt.nz/COVID-19/vac....
Please see [2]Safety Report #43 for information on Myocarditis and
Pericarditis.

 

For your information, in mid-March the Ministry of Health launched a
[3]study to find out if people who developed myocarditis and/or
pericarditis following vaccination with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine had
long-term health problems. International data suggests that for most
people who develop myocarditis and/or pericarditis, their symptoms stop
with appropriate management. However, there is limited data on the
long-term health outcomes of individuals who experience these side
effects. The study is a collaborative effort across the Ministry of
Health, Medsafe, and Centre for Adverse Reactions Monitoring (CARM) to
help us to better understand how the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is working in
Aotearoa New Zealand and to use this information to help manage these
risks.  The findings of this study will be published later this year on
Medsafe’s website. 

 

Are you able to separate out the following data.

Specifically looking at this year 2021-2022 - Total number of myocarditis
cases - And if the person was vaccinated eg cases 401 - vaccinated Yes 401
- unvaccinated No 0 Or whatever the case numbers look like.

 

As noted in the response to your earlier request (H202207093), the
Ministry is unable to provide the data for the number of myocarditis cases
in 2021/2022 as the data is not yet complete.

 

Please also provide the

Life Expectancy of people diagnosed with Myocarditis - eg average life
expectancy, expected life from diagnoses - eg 5 years

Treatment - Please provide medical treatments etc

Proportion of Myocarditis Patients that require heart transplants or they
will likely die

Are you also able to provide, given that we know the majority of New
Zealanders are vaccinated, how will MOH determine cause of Myocarditis as
from Covid-19 or from the vaccine.

 

The Ministry does not hold the data you have requested in these parts of
your request. Therefore, they are being refused under section 18(g)(i) of
the Act, as the information requested is not held by the Ministry and
there is no reason to believe it is held by another agency subject to the
Act.

 

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.

Kia ora Chris 

Thank you for your request for official information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act), received on 8 September 2022 requesting: 

Unfortunately you haven’t answered anything.  The reports you link to do
not support the following statement. “Covid-19 infection increases the
risk of myocarditis substantially more than COVID-19 vaccination" - what
information has been relied on that supports this statement? Can you
please have another go at providing the information I have requested. 
Reports, data, studies all showing that Covid-19 outweighs risks of
vaccination versus myocarditis.  Basic question - how many people have
developed myocarditis after Covid-19 in NZ? Because there is a 500%
increase in the vaccinated only based on NZ stats.  And how does MOH
determine Covid-19 myocarditis stats if any? 

The Ministry of Health, on behalf of Te Whatu Ora, has decided to extend
the period of time available to respond to your request under section 15A
of the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act). The request necessitates a
search through a large quantity of information and meeting the original
time limit would unreasonably interfere with the operations of the
Ministry. Additionally, the consultations that are necessary to make a
decision on the request are such that a proper response to the request
cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.

You can now expect a response to your request on, or before, 4 November
2022. 

You have the right, under section 28 of the Act, to ask the Ombudsman to
review my decision to extend the time available to respond to your
request. 

Ngâ mihi
