New Zealand official birth and death figures for 12 months to the end of June 2023 released.

UPDATED: 17 August 2023 8:15 am.

Stats New Zealand released the official figures for births and deaths for the period 1st July 2022 to 30th June 2023 today. The short summary accompanying the release of the horrifying figures compares these to the previous 12 months and reports increases in deaths and reductions in live births. 2022/23 figures would have best been compared to the July 2018 to June 2019 totals, the first available pre-pandemic period. We report this comparison below.

There were 38,442 deaths among all ages for July 2022-June 2023 compared to 33,753 deaths in the 2018/19 comparable period. This is an increase of 4,689 deaths (up 14%) which occurred at a rate of 90 excess deaths per week.

Working age people were also affected. Deaths among 15 to 64 year olds were up by 6%. Figures released by the Household Labour Force Survey reports rates of disability sufficient to preclude joining the workforce among this age group has increased by 37.5% over the same period and now stands at 14.3% of the workforce. That is huge. Why?

Alarmingly, natural live birth increase (births minus deaths) fell from 26,500 in 2018/19 to 19,185 in 2022/23 a decrease of 7,400 or 28%. This is an absolutely unprecedented drop. Nothing even remotely like this has been recorded previously.

Covid deaths over this whole period reported by Our World in Data appear insufficient to explain the increase in deaths. Nor is an ageing population sufficient explanation for the figures that is a long term gradual trend, this is a sudden rise.

We have been aware of data like this for some time now, but there has been deafening silence from our politicians who are currently running for re-election. We are heading into this election under unusual and coercive constraints that have no precedent in our history as a nation.

Due to the events of the last three years, the machinery of government has assumed more control over our medical and food choices. The concerning birth and death figures must be regarded as a verdict on policies which have enjoyed cross party support.

As a result of government policies, we have lost many of our rights as NZ citizens. None of the parties currently elected to Parliament have any plans to revoke this government overreach. So what has gone wrong and how will this affect us if we re-elect the same group of political parties to power?

Pandemic policies have established a precedent allowing the government to enforce compliance with its medical rules. They coerced almost everyone to take specific injections with high rates of adverse effects. Restrictions on social movement and communication have been normalised. Agreements with social media providers and the mainstream press have censored the availability of independent information and hampered scientific dialogue. Access to official public health data has been limited.

The government has also passed the Therapeutic Products Bill which has legitimised the substitution of thousands of natural ingredients with untested synthetic alternatives without requirements for clear labelling. The Bill also facilitates dose restrictions and banning of many traditional herbal products and supplements at the whim of a government bureaucrat.

The government has authorised the addition of chemical fluorides to public water supplies. It has mandated the addition of chemical supplements to staple foods including a synthetic form of folic acid to flour which is hard to metabolise and inhibits some metabolic pathways vital for health.

Re-electing sitting members of parliament from any party is a prescription for more of the same. Our current politicians are refusing to face up to some hard facts. We are in the midst of a medical emergency of unprecedented proportions. Our hospitals are overwhelmed, our politicians are silent.

Unbelievably, our politicians and medical tsars continue to ignore accumulating evidence being published in learned science journals pointing to adverse effects of mRNA vaccines. Despite this, the government is still funding advertising encouraging the population to receive further booster injections. They don’t work and they endanger health.

There are no plans to investigate what has gone wrong. It is time to say goodbye to 120 MPs from across the political spectrum who have spectacularly failed our nation in its hour of need. If they are re-elected our ability to manage our own health choices will be gone for good.

The judgement on their competence is there in black and white from their own statistics—deaths are up 14%, net live birth increase down 28%, disability up 37.5%. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know where this is going. Mistakes were made, and now they cannot be hidden or denied any longer. Some hard questions must be asked and answered.

Our media is compliant and lazy in a coverup. They have enjoyed government support.

None of this is in the character of our nation or in its history. It is time to wake up.

The UK Daily Mail leads today with a story about the heart attack suffered by Bronny James on the basketball court. According to two UK doctors described as leading experts and cited by the Mail, the suggestion that this might be the result of a vaccine injury is a conspiracy theory.

This article is available as a PDF document, or you can listen to it here.

The article concedes that deaths from heart disease are at record levels and also concedes that Covid vaccines cause heart damage, but stiffly maintains that those conflating these two facts are not only in error but are also engaged in a conspiracy to pervert truth and presumably justice. The BBC also chimes in with an article claiming piously, “there is no evidence to support the implication vaccines might be involved”.

At the ‘heart’ of these claims is the suggestion that vaccine-induced myocarditis is rare, so rare that it could not possibly be causing the huge rate of excess deaths from heart disease which amounts, according to the British Heart Foundation, to a massive 30,000 extra UK deaths per year when compared to pre-pandemic levels.

At the same time as Bronny James was suffering a tragic heart attack and its aftermath, Swiss scientists finalised a scientific paper for publication entitled “Sex specific differences in myocardial injury incidence after COVID-19 mRNA-1273 booster vaccination”. This is a landmark study because it is a gold standard, carefully-planned, prospective study with a rigorous schedule of tests rather than an incomplete retrospective assessment of past events.

777 health care workers were tested for myocardial damage three days after booster vaccination and compared to the same number of controls. 40 of them (1 in 20) had elevated troponin levels indicative of damage to cardiac cells. These people (65% of them women) were subject to follow up tests and 22 of them (1 in 35) were judged to have vaccine-induced myocardial injury. This careful study proves that myocardial injury has been massively underreported. The Mail reports that the UK Government’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) had previously estimated a rate of just 1 in 666. Now known to be wrong by a factor of 20.

By no stretch of the imagination can myocardial injury be judged to be ‘extremely rare’ as the Mail suggests. Nor, according to this detailed discussion by Dr. John Campbell is this level of risk something any of us would consider taking on unless we faced imminent death as an alternative, which we don’t. For another discussion see this informative substack article.

Fortunately, the short term effects among those tested in the Swiss study did not include severe outcomes, but another prospective study completed in 2022 in Thailand on 314 high school students did find such severe effects. It is well known that myocarditis has both short term and long term outcomes. The elevated rate of excess deaths from heart disease in the general population does point to the need to ask questions. Asking them publicly does not amount to a conspiracy. The dismissal of these claims suggests there is an attempt to cover up on the part of the same doctors who coerced us to take the jabs and told us they were effective and safe (they aren’t).

Other causal factors for the steep rise in excess deaths from heart disease suggested by the Mail include the rise in ambulance response times to cardiac incidents from 30 to 90 minutes. It is surely not too hard for the newspaper to realise that if there are more cardiac events there will be longer response times, not the other way around. Another suggestion widely touted until recently was a supposed failure to prescribe statins during the pandemic, this disappeared from newsprint pages when it was realised that statin prescriptions have actually not decreased.

If you want to know just how convoluted denial of responsibility can become, read a translation of an article from Sweden where a 30 year old man died after receiving a booster jab. The government paid his family financial compensation but listed the event as the result of a medicine given in error rather than suffer the embarrassment of calling it a vaccine related death. A paper analysing autopsy results following Covid vaccination underlines the intended obfuscation of this kind of doublespeak.

Behind this posturing and denial of responsibility lies something much darker with more chilling implications for public health. It is not just heart attacks that are up to levels never seen before. Ditto for cancers, kidney injury, neurological injury, strokes, miscarriages, menstrual irregularities, stillbirths, cognitive decline and crucially unexplained deaths.

These statistics point to the need for probing questions of a different type. Are the vaccines or indeed Covid infection, which the balance of evidence now suggests both came from a biotech lab, causing generalised immune instability and more worryingly, how long is this going to go on, and how bad will it get?

Sometimes you find that you have to face up to extreme challenges in your personal life. Our responses to these crises define who we are and what we can become. This can require admitting to ourselves and others that we got it all wrong. Apology and humility build character and support honesty.

Crises can also engulf the whole of society. The casual dismissal of questions about vaccine safety shows we have arrived at just such a societal crisis. A crisis of health and truth whose dimensions appear to dwarf anything civilisation as a whole has had to face in our lifetimes. The beginnings of this crisis are no doubt lost in history, but the turning point came when some decision-makers in the pharmaceutical industry at the start of the pandemic decided it would be safe to unleash biotechnology on the general public. We are just at the beginning of this era. The WHO 2030 Agenda predicts that we will all be subject to hundreds of novel vaccines within the decade.

Biotechnology medicine was well known to be unsafe and inherently mutagenic pre-pandemic. Crucially it wasn’t so much what we knew, but what we didn’t know that constituted the colossal error of judgement, hubris, cruelty and greed. A single cell, the origin of life, contains an uncountable 100 trillion atoms organised into 42 million protein molecules and twenty thousand genes. Scientists have only a vague picture of how cells work. They have no idea how cells produce consciousness, how cells join together (37.2 trillion of them) to form a single human identity with amazing autonomic functions and immunity.

What we thought they knew can only be described as a crude notion put together from a few isolated facts derived from a countable number of experiments. Scientists don’t understand how intra-cellular transport and selection is managed. They only have a hazy comprehension of the role of electric fields, molecular shape, vibrational modes, so-called dark areas of our genome and multi-gene cooperative functions.

What we do know for certain is the immense precision involved and the vulnerability to even very small edits to their structure. Cells work very hard to protect this precision, each one completes over 70,000 self-repairs every day. With this in mind, it becomes very apparent that those working in the field of gene therapy knew from previous failures and disasters just how potentially dangerous Covid vaccines could be. Some did warn their superiors, who not only ignored them but set about telling the general public that that biotechnology was completely safe and near 100% infallible. This was a big lie, not to say the crime of the century.

As you no doubt know very well, once you have told one lie, it is very hard to avoid telling more lies which can eventually become a world of untruth that eats away at your conscience and peace. This has become the fate of society during the pandemic. No one is participating more enthusiastically than the fourth estate. Everyday, newspapers print articles claiming that excess deaths, which are running into millions world wide, are normal or non-existent and have nothing to do with the obvious culprit. Governments are looking the other way and piously washing their hands of the matter like Pontius Pilate, while medical authorities are busying themselves hiding the data and refusing to carry out tests and autopsies.

The new generation of biotech medicines are squarely aimed at editing the internal operation of cells, the control system that keeps our physiology and our life flying safely along. It shouldn’t be a surprise to learn that handicapping the pilot might crash the plane. The only surprise is that millions of crashed planes world wide are being ignored. We are living in a very different world from the one we thought we inhabited. I hope we are not so daft that we stop asking questions on the advice of those manifestly profiting from the pandemic.

After reporting earlier that there have been 100,000 extra UK deaths from heart disease alone, the Mail concludes by claiming without evidence that the number of vaccine-related deaths pales in comparison to the estimated 230,000 deaths that Covid inoculation has supposedly saved (???)—a figure widely disputed and believed to be wildly inflated. Even so 2 to 5 are not odds that I would accept if I had to put my life up as collateral, would you?

Articles like those today in the Daily Mail and the BBC, and there are many of them published everyday, are not just bad journalism, they are part of an insidious push to promote drugs that are known to harm people. They are intended to quiet the concern of people worldwide who are waking up to their tragic side effects and complete ineffectiveness. The purpose is manifestly the inflation of the profits of a trillion dollar industry who has proved itself callous and criminal, unfit to dominate public health policy as they do through revolving doors between regulators and industry insiders and through obscene advertising expenditure and gifts to medical professionals.

On Saturday, the UK Daily Express headlined a story, “Experts call for urgent investigation as excess deaths spark ‘dangerous’ theories“. UK excess deaths in 2023 have risen to levels commensurate with 2020 alpha variant deaths during the height of the pandemic, but the article admits that the 2023 excess is not due to Covid. Most concerning is the death toll in the 15-44 age group, which exceeds 2020 and prior years. An age group which was mostly just mildly affected by Covid.

This article is available as a PDF document, or you can listen to it here.

As they are here in New Zealand, where our rates of excess death are measurably higher than in the UK, the Government is keeping quiet and looking the other way. Dr. Charles Levinson, Medical Director of private GP service Doctorcall, said the “silence” from the Government was allowing conspiracy theories to flourish, including from anti-vaxxers, and added:

“A refusal to openly discuss these statistics is an abdication of responsibility from parts of the scientific community [and the government], leading to an irreversible erosion of trust by parts of society.” We agree.

Why Aren’t Governments Investigating?

So we are not conspiracy theorists when we warn that excess deaths are up, mainstream scientists agree with us, but understandably they don’t want the jabs they administered and pushed on people to be revealed as the cause or even openly discussed. That could be very embarrassing.

Why aren’t governments investigating? It might be a fair guess at this point to suggest that governments are actually aware of excess deaths and very afraid to investigate because what limited data they have released suggests very clearly that those asking questions about vaccine safety might very well be right about the cause.

Excess deaths appear to be clustered around a range of cardiac events scientifically proven and acknowledged to be related to mRNA vaccines and cancers suspected to be. The Boston Globe, for example, headlines, “Rise in cancer among younger people worries and puzzles doctors“. Indian doctor Feruzi Mehta from Mumbai tweets that heart attack deaths among younger people now make up 15-20% of the total, when it was just 1-2% ten years ago.

Doctors like Mehta speaking up are risking de-registration. Therefore most others, faced by rising incidence of illness and death, especially among the young, are remaining silent. However, some diehards are doubling down or even succumbing to the irrational.

Silence is one thing, but our Prime Minister’s office is actively funding a disinformation project dedicated to discrediting anyone who asks questions about vaccine safety, labelling them violent extremists, paedophiles, satanists, anti-semites, animal torturers, white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and anti-transgender. Saying that “all these interests ultimately merge into one”, beginning with a concern about vaccine mandates (???)

Time to Press the Pause Button

All the wild and incredible accusations listed in the preceding paragraph are explicitly made during the first 12 minutes of the first episode of a seven-part podcast series produced by RNZ called Undercurrent, in which they interview government-funded disinformation experts (???). 12 minutes of this half-baked smear campaign was enough exposure for me to press the pause button.

The problem with the RNZ podcast so far (aside from its lengthy episodes and unrelenting madness) is that it doesn’t actually discuss vaccine injuries or unprecedented rates of excess deaths (or even mention that there are such things). RNZ began putting the podcast series together more than 10 months ago. Since that time, it has become apparent that worrying excess death rates have persisted, but RNZ has apparently decided to avoid mentioning the problem. There is a possible reason for this. Once you get into inventing causes of excess deaths, you really do begin to sound very mad indeed.

Talking of Madness…

One News tweeted tonight that people in Mount Maunganui are dying of air pollution in large numbers, along with a picture of its pristine coastline.

The NY Times suggests that extreme heat is causing hundreds of extra deaths. It advises July 20, 2023 “….plan to stay indoors as much as possible with the windows closed. If you must be outdoors, consider wearing an N95 mask…” A lot of people appear to be taking this advice very seriously, one tweets despairingly:

“….I have Covid now. I haven’t been anywhere in a month. We both mask indoors and we don’t even share a bedroom or eat in the same room. No choice but to share a bathroom.”

In 2017 the NY Times wrote in praise of sunshine, saying it has massive benefits, crowing, “let the sun shine in”. Recently in 2023, the NY Times wrote, “How to Get Absolutely No Sun This Summer. None! Don’t even think about it!“.

Alex Berenson, award winning former NYT journalist, responds to this kind of reporting with “The New York Times has lost its mind. And by mind, I mean principles and understanding of the First Amendment (the right to free speech).” In which he says the NYT has walked into the government censorship trap, cancelling those voicing concerns, including himself.

A quick survey of other suggested causes of record excess deaths suggested by mainstream media ranges from the just possible marginal effect of lockdowns to the implausible alcohol consumption, loneliness, too much exercise, gardening, vacations, climate change, and the really far out: ‘there is too much air’. You can feel the panic setting in, can’t you? Something terrible is happening, but people are very afraid to face up to it.

Pro-vaccine advocate Prof. Peter Hotez is also recommending staying at home. He is warning against going to see the blockbuster Barbie or Oppenheimer movies at the cinema because you might bring Covid home with you. Incredibly he also joins with RNZ in thinking that concern about vaccine safety is a form of anti-semitism.

The Lack of Any Plausible Explanation

It doesn’t take much thought to realise that the underlying concern here is the increasingly noticeable high rate of excess deaths and the lack of any plausible explanation. All this is happening after mass vaccinations with a novel biotechnology drug. How long are we going to go on without acknowledging the elephant in the corner of the room or, more especially, tabulating how many among those dying are vaccinated or unvaccinated?

The government-backed RNZ podcast is an act of desperation which is transparently biased and illogical, aimed at a demographic that has been systematically schooled over the last three years to unquestioning dream-like acceptance of the government and the medical establishment. This might be very comforting to some who are just blindly hoping it will all go away or else feeling grateful there is a scapegoat they can blame and revile, but this narrative no longer makes any sense, if it ever did. The RNZ podcast should be dismissed as absurd propaganda issued during the last days of a failed parliament.

Just remember the paragraph with which we started this article.

Scientists are now warning us that excess deaths are real and very concerning, not imaginary as our politicians and some uninformed medicos and media hacks are still pressing us to accept, against the evidence.

We are facing a real life emergency. Our EDs and hospitals are overwhelmed. Young people are dying of conditions that used to mainly affect the elderly, but the media, the government, and the medical establishment want the subject to remain taboo. They are funding efforts to marginalise those asking questions, shooting the messenger rather than acknowledging the problem and searching for solutions. Time to wake up from the fantasy.
