In our Weekly SOS, we want to highlight the opportunity to be heard as individuals and as a collective as the second phase of New Zealand’s Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) is tabled.
Rewind to the first phase of the RCI, which examined “Covid-19 Lessons Learned.” This phase left us with more questions than answers.
Vital topics, such as vaccine safety and efficacy, were glaringly excluded from its scope. Yet, despite these omissions, phase one defended the mandates, especially for healthcare workers, ignoring foundational scientific scrutiny.
We’ve seen similar stories overseas: emails from the Robert Koch Institute and revelations from the Matt Hancock files show political motives overriding science, yet they have not been considered in phase one in New Zealand at all!
The same jabs were used in New Zealand, so the same scientific concerns apply here. However, the voices of the vaccine-injured and those coerced into compliance remain absent from the narrative.
Now, phase two of the RCI begins, and it’s our chance to demand better. With Grant Illingworth KC leading this phase, there’s hope for meaningful change – but only if this inquiry addresses what truly matters.
Comment on the Royal Commission of Inquiry Phase Two
What Must Change in Phase Two
- Having public hearings that illuminate the decision-making process so that the harmful actions can be seen
- Enabling the voices of those who suffered from injuries and/or mandates to be heard
- Investigating vaccine safety and injuries independently to get to the truth
- Allowing the censored and silenced health professionals and scientists, and the hidden aspects of the narrative, to be heard
Professor Tony Blakely, the lead commissioner for phase one, defended mandates without being able to assess the full scope of the evidence and conduct a valid risk/benefit assessment of vaccination strategies. This lack of unbiased investigation cannot happen again in phase two. The foreknowledge of harm at the time of vaccine approval, evidence of DNA contamination in vaccines, unexplained health crises, and the emotional and physical toll of coerced compliance must be aired and presented publicly.
