By early July 2021 the then NZ Director General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, received notification of the emerging link between #mrna covid injections and Myocarditis and that other Governments were warning their populations of this risk. In New Zealand, although Doctors received updates on this emerging risk, the NZ public did not receive specific Myocarditis warnings until 15 December 2021. The attached report to Bloomfield, dated 21 July 2021 also states: On 09 July 2021, the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) recommended adding myocarditis and/or pericarditis as a side effect for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and added a warning for myocarditis to both vaccines.
