From: Ross Francis

Dear Health New Zealand,

The Medicines Assessment Advisory Committee met on 2 February 2021 to discuss granting the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine provisional approval in New Zealand.

Who attended the committee meeting and who declared a conflict of interest?

Did any of those who declared a conflict of interest attend any Medicines Assessment Advisory Committee meetings in 2021? If so, which meetings did they attend?

During the 2 February 2021 meeting, how long did the committee spend on discussing potential side effects of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine?

Please send me a recording and transcript of the committee's discussion about the vaccine's potential side effects.

Yours faithfully,

Ross Francis
