New Zealand’s Royal Commission into the COVID-19 response is under fire for allegedly ignoring critical scientific data and presenting a biased narrative on vaccine safety. Phase Two of the inquiry, which focuses on vaccination, is accused of sidelining credible concerns in favor of reaffirming government policies and promoting the contested claim that mRNA vaccines are unquestionably safe and effective.

During the week of July 7-11, the Commission heard testimony from a range of organizations and individuals. Despite having previously received detailed briefings from Voices for Freedom (VFF), the New Zealand Health Forum, and New Zealand Doctors Speaking Out on Science (NZDSOS) — including submissions backed by peer-reviewed studies and official data — the Commission reportedly dismissed these inputs during public hearings, instead leaning on discredited ideas and outdated assumptions.
One particularly alarming piece of evidence cited by critics is a large-scale Japanese study analyzing over 21 million health records. This research suggests that up to 610,000 people — approximately 0.5% of Japan’s population — died unexpectedly following COVID-19 vaccination, with the risk intensifying with booster doses. These deaths occurred predominantly 90-120 days post-vaccination, a timeline previously dismissed as too distant to be linked to the vaccine. The findings directly challenge the dominant assumption that vaccine-related deaths must occur shortly after injection to be considered causal.
Yet during public hearings, the Commission reportedly disregarded such data, instead presenting several controversial claims, including that government officials cannot be held accountable if acting on expert advice, and that vaccine causality for adverse events remains unproven. Critics counter that statistical methods like time series analysis can clearly link vaccination to spikes in serious health conditions, a link made even more evident by transparent health data from countries like Japan and South Korea. In contrast, New Zealand’s government has withheld comparable datasets and even prosecuted whistleblowers who attempted to disclose them.
