HDFOI21-22.11

Reference number	HDFOI21-22.11
Date of Application	07/Sep/21
Information Requested	This request relates to the “Public Health (Emergency) Declaration 2020”, its subsequent extensions and the directions made pursuant to it, by the Minister for Health and the Chief Health Officer since 16 March 2020. A number of claims are made in, or can be reasonably inferred from, the declaration, directions and supporting material available online, which I am seeking material evidence for under this Freedom of Information request. I have summarised these claims in the points that follow (which are based on information published on the ACT government’s website): 1) That there is a novel coronavirus designated SARS-CoV-2 that has been reliably identified according to the scientific method. 2) That SARS-CoV-2 is the sole cause of a new coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is a distinct disease that is reliably differentiated from other diseases. 3) That COVID-19 presents a public health risk to the ACT community in general that exceeds the public health risk from other diseases in the community to date. 4) That people who are asymptomatic but diagnosed with COVID-19 spread the disease to others in a substantial enough way that merits concern. 5) That the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and all of its derivatives are a reliable diagnostic test for whether a person has the SARS-CoV-2 virus and are infectious. 6) That the SARS-CoV-2 virus is transmitted from person to person in a manner that face masks prevent, and the benefits of face mask use outweigh any harms to the wearer in the short, medium and long term, and other harms to the public and the environment. 7) That testing, quarantining, limiting gatherings, social distancing, contact tracing, lock downs, border closures, travel restrictions, frequent hand sanitisation and vaccination using novel technologies are justified in the circumstances and that there are no other viable alternatives to better respond to the perceived risks posed. 8) That people who have had COVID-19 should still get a vaccine for COVID-19 as it will protect the person from getting COVID-19 again or passing it onto someone else. 9) That the COVID-19 vaccines currently available are safe and do not contain potential toxic ingredients or cause potential toxicity within the body. It is in the public interest that material evidence is supplied to substantiate these claims as the broader community has patiently endured infringements to their rights for approximately 18 months without being able to truly ascertain whether there is justifiable cause. There have been additional impacts on local businesses and the local economy, which will have long standing consequences for the community, and must be well evidenced particularly if they are to continue. The specific Freedom of Information request I am making is split into parts as follows in descending order of priority, which can be responded to separately according to the effort estimated and capacity of the ACT Health Directorate: a) I request all decision support materials (e.g. briefing materials) in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate, that were supplied to the Minister for Health to support their declaration and/or extension of a public health emergency and/or the chief health officer to support their consideration prior to issuance of a public health direction, describing the real world (i.e. not simulated, modelled or theorised) isolation and purification of the novel coronavirus designated SARS-CoV-2 from a diseased patient anywhere in the world, which evidences that the patient was infected by this isolated and purified novel coronavirus and that the disease they were suffering from was solely caused by this isolated and purified novel coronavirus. b) I request all decision support materials (e.g. briefing materials) in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate, that were supplied to the Minister for Health to support their declaration and/or extension of a public health emergency and/or the chief health officer to support their consideration prior to issuance of a public health direction, describing the public health risk to the ACT community in general, and also according to particular groups who may be more at risk than others, in relation to: b.i. the infection fatality rate of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, and also with reference to how this compares to seasonal Influenza and recorded Influenza outbreaks; and b.ii. the estimated prevalence of natural immunity and robust immune responses for SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 from individuals that have been previously exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and/or other viruses that enable cross-reactivity. c) I request all records in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate’s COVID-19 response areas, and the Pathology area of Canberra Health Services, describing the following in relation to testing and diagnosis for SARS-CoV-2 and/or COVID-19: c.i. the diagnostic sensitivity and diagnostic specificity of each type of test used within the ACT; c.ii. the cycle threshold that laboratories adhere to when using the PCR method on specimens, and whether this threshold has changed over time, and whether this threshold is different for different groups of people including but not limited to vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals; c.iii. the known limitations and the estimated false positive rate of tests used within the ACT; and c.iv. the clinical diagnostic criteria for differentiating a case of COVID-19 from a case of another disease with similar clinical characteristics, in conjunction with, and also in the absence of, a laboratory test result. d) I request all decision support materials (e.g. briefing materials) in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate, that were supplied to the Minister for Health to support their declaration and/or extension of a public health emergency and/or the chief health officer to support their consideration prior to issuance of a public health direction, describing the extent to which asymptomatic individuals have been a significant contributor in driving: d.i. the spread of SARS-CoV-2; and d.ii. the spread of any virus in any previous viral epidemic or pandemic. e) I request all decision support materials (e.g. briefing materials) in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate, that were supplied to the Minister for Health to support their declaration and/or extension of a public health emergency and/or the chief health officer to support their consideration prior to issuance of a public health direction, describing the real world (i.e. not simulated, modelled or theorised) effectiveness of cloth, surgical and respirator face mask use in the general community for preventing the contraction and transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus or any other Influenza or coronavirus, as well as the individual, societal and environmental harms that can occur from general community use of these face masks in the short, medium and long term. f) I request all records in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate’s COVID-19 response vaccination program areas describing the potential and/or known toxicity, including but not limited to reproductive toxicity and genotoxicity, of current COVID-19 vaccines and the same for their individual ingredients. g) I request all records in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate’s COVID-19 response vaccination program areas describing the absolute risk reduction from COVID-19 vaccination per type of vaccine for people who: g.i. have never been diagnosed with COVID-19, covering risk reduction from disease, risk reduction from death, and risk reduction from transmission to others; and g.ii. have recovered from COVID-19, covering risk reduction for recurrence of disease, risk reduction from death and risk reduction for transmission to others. h) I request all decision support materials (e.g. briefing materials) in the possession, custody or control of the ACT Health Directorate, that were supplied to the Minister for Health to support their declaration and/or extension of a public health emergency and/or the chief health officer to support their consideration prior to issuance of a public health direction, describing the alternatives that have been considered to date to mitigate perceived risks to the ACT community from SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 in relation to: h.i. focused protection of the most vulnerable groups; h.ii. use of re-purposed medicines and supplements individually or in combination including but not limited to Hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin, Favipirivir, Fluvoxamine, Quercetin, Metformin, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, and Zinc either in prophylaxis or treatment; and h.iii. promotion of dietary and lifestyle changes that can improve the immune system, including but not limited to reduced stress, exercise, a diet full of essential vitamins and minerals linked to a healthy immune system, and avoiding exposure to known toxins that can impair the immune system.
