The request was successful.
From: Mr Richards
Dear New Zealand Defence Force,
Can you please tell me the total number of recruits/reenlisted defence force personnel who have been rejected service due to not receiving the primary doses of COVID vaccine from when it was introduced to the baseline requirements.
Also number of NZDF pers who were discharged when the TDFO was enforced. Please provide number for the army regular and territorial respectively.
Can you provide any information to suggest the baseline vaccination requirements are reassessed often as new information comes out to justify their existence in the baseline?
Have levels of pericarditis and myocarditis increased since the covid vaccine rollout for NZDF pers?
Yours faithfully, Mr Richards.
