Do we know they haven't? Pfizer says "Rolling submissions have commenced in several countries including in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea, with planned submissions to other regulatory agencies around the world to follow."

Leggy 4,010 Report post Posted November 23, 2021 I thought Leo said that he had spoken to Jackson who had referred him to Pharmac which presumably won't have much to say as they can't be asked to purchase or order an as yet unapproved med. It seems odd that Pfizer would be applying to Medsafe for approval if they did not have some indication from NZ that we were interested in purchasing Paxlovid.

Leggy 4,010 Report post Posted November 23, 2021 We also have 60,000 doses of Molnupiravir ordered. Possibly not as effective as Paxlovid based on Pfizer reports last week but quite effective all the same. They got onto that pretty quickly and it has now been approved in the UK. Not sure where Medsafe is on that. Memphis3 and Pam Robson 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we( the rest of NZ outside auckland) need is for them to stay put when the borders are opened up.90% vax rate nationwide but it is only in auckland that the virus is circulating and KILLING PEOPLE.Stay home this xmas, you are not welcome in my neck of the woods,or anywhere else where we have fought hard to eliminate covid,why would we want any reintroduction of covid after what we went through to get rid of it? Why would we want to kill people needlessly? So aucklanders can wave their dicks about in queenstown or coromandel because they got to 90% after soo much suffering,soo much economic hardship,we followed the rules ,beat the virus and now we are to be betrayed because aucklanders are soo deserving.

Pfizer terminated the phase 2/3 trials and released an interim analysis only a couple of weeks ago. The final analysis will need to be submitted to approval agencies before purchases can be confirmed. Pharmac will negotiate that in the NZ case if they haven't already, but at this stage, subject to Medsafe approval. That IS how it works in the same way it has for Molnupiravir Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me, what part of the country are you in "where we have fought hard to eliminate covid,why would we want any reintroduction of covid after what we went through to get rid of it?" And "after soo much suffering,soo much economic hardship,we followed the rules ,beat the virus and now we are to be betrayed because aucklanders are soo deserving?" We are supposedly a team of 5 million, not a team of 3.3 million versus a team of 1.7 million. Auckland, and Aucklanders, by December 15th, will have done 4 months of hard yards to support ungrateful people like you and give you time, 4 months (17 weeks) of it to get prepared. Getting vaccinated takes 3 weeks. What have you been doing for the other 14 weeks? Living something of a normal life at Alert Level 2 somewhere? I don't know where you live, but outside of Auckland "rolling the rules" has been a walk in the park by comparison. Even Waikato and Northland have had it easy by comparison. Shorter times in Lockdown and less people affected. Memphis3 and arjay 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it was the best we had at the time and it's already licensed this month by the MHRA in the UK. Just prior to the analysis of the Pavlovax B/C trial being released. I already noted above that it was less efficacious. It is however already being manufactured with 10 million courses available within the next month or so.

Leggy 4,010 Report post Posted November 23, 2021 Returning to the original discussion as it applies to racing, the point is that based on the Oxford evidence, requiring double vax certification for entry to and participation in events has a minimal and declining effect on reducing risk to others. It's possible that it increases the risk because in the vaccinated population you will have way more asymptomatic but infected people wandering around shedding the virus, unknowing and untested. The only way that vax certification might be of some use is if you require certification that participants were vaccinated say within the last 3 months (or had a booster shot within that period). dock leaf 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One poor bastard has a vehicle service outfit. He took over in March after managing the business for 6 years and bang straight into lockdown. He's told he has to apply to Waka Kotahi to do warrants so he waits to October before someone comes to inspect and approve. So he is sorted now? No they havent sent him the books FFS.. These lazy Government fucks in Welly are beyond despicable. Ape are you one?
