Founder of the Health Forum NZ, Lynda Wharton, five years since the first Pfizer mRNA COVID vaccine doses were administered in New Zealand, shares a powerful testimony about the ongoing silence around vaccine injuries and deaths totally ignored by culpable doctors

Watch these heartbreaking accounts from young and old New Zealand vaccine victims which doctors and the medical profession deny. When will those responsible be prosecuted?

AOTEAROA, NEW ZEALAND — February 23, 2026 — As the New Zealand Government prepares to receive the highly anticipated Phase Two report of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into COVID-19 Lessons Learned this Friday, 28 February, a new independent web series is giving a voice to those the inquiry was expanded to protect.

The Tribute, an episodic documentary series directed by Gaylene Barnes (River of Freedom) and award-winning cinematographer Mark Lapwood, launched 6 weeks ago to document the lived experiences of everyday New Zealanders who report serious harm following their COVID-19 vaccinations.

The Human Cost of the Response

Marking five years since the first Pfizer doses were administered in New Zealand, the series features powerful testimony from casualties of the vaccine rollout. Lynda Wharton, founder of The Health Forum NZ and a key collaborator on the project, explains that the series was born out of a necessity to record history that has been largely overlooked by mainstream media.

“We are seeing a consistent pattern in these stories,” says Wharton. “Kiwis describe a total lack of informed consent, the trauma of job-loss coercion, and a medical system that often met their injuries with denial or ‘gaslighting,’ attributing serious physical symptoms to anxiety. ” (The interviewees in The Tribute are mostly formally diagnosed as vaccine injured with supporting test results)”

Key Themes Explored in The Tribute:

  • Institutional Silence: The unprecedented suppression of public discussion regarding vaccine safety.
  • Social Cohesion: How mandates and the “team of five million” narrative fractured families and trust in public health.
  • Data vs. Reality: A deep dive into Medsafe’s own data—which has reported over 20,500 serious adverse events and 204 deaths—and the ongoing struggle for ACC compensation.
  • Global Signals: The emergence of international pharmacovigilance data that mirrors the concerns raised by injured New Zealanders.

A Turning Point for Truth?

The timing of the series coincides with a pivotal moment for the nation. The Royal Commission’s Phase Two report specifically investigated vaccine safety, efficacy, the implementation of mandates, and the monitoring of adverse reactions. For many featured in The Tribute, this report represents a final hope for official acknowledgement and the restoration of patient rights under the NZ Bill of Rights.

“This is a passion project to ensure these voices are not erased from our national record,” says Director Gaylene Barnes. “Whether the Royal Commission shines a light on these realities or not, The Tribute will stand as a permanent document of the human experience during this era.”

  1. The Epstein Files Illuminate a 20-Year Architecture Behind Pandemics as a Business Model—With Bill Gates at the Center of the Network – Global Research – 28 February 2026.

    Excerpt >
    Executive Summary
    Vaccines as capital strategy: Internal JPMorgan emails from 2011 show Jeffrey Epstein advising the bank’s most senior executives on how to pitch a Gates-anchored donor-advised fund, insisting the presentation include the phrase “additional money for vaccines” and directing the creation of an “offshore arm — especially for vaccines.”
    Pandemics as a funding vertical: A 2017 email thread between Epstein, Gates, and Boris Nikolic names “pandemic” as a “key area” for donor-advised fund structures—three years before COVID-19.
    Pandemic simulation as career currency: A January 2017 iMessage thread from Epstein’s phone shows an associate listing “pandemics (just did pandemic simulation)” as a professional credential—while simultaneously discussing career placement into Gates’ private office, Boris Nikolic’s Biomatics Capital, Merck’s vaccine team, and Swiss Re’s pandemic reinsurance products.
    Crisis as investable asset: A Gates Foundation briefing describes the Global Health Investment Fund as an “impact investment” vehicle targeting five-to-seven percent returns on drugs and vaccines, backed by a sixty percent principal guarantee.
    Simulation as technical deliverable: A 2017 internal scope document from bgC3, Gates’ private office, lists “strain pandemic simulation” alongside neurotechnology and national defense applications.
    The pandemic preparedness network: A 2015 Gates Foundation letter confirms pandemic preparedness coordination with the International Peace Institute—led by Terje Rød-Larsen, a documented Epstein dinner guest—while Epstein separately feeds Rød-Larsen Gates’s public pandemic messaging.

  3. Re: “Well maybe it wasn’t an enviable choice but it was still a choice”

    That seems a somewhat cynical conclusion. To eat or not to eat! For many, THAT was the question!

    The DIKTATS left no room for any GENUINE ‘choice’ except in a harsh and callous world of semantics. But even if we are DISPASSIONATE enough to deem STARVATION as presenting people with ‘choices’, the fact is that such choices were actually FORCED on many working people, i.e. No work = No means of Survival = Loss of Everything.

    The ‘choices’ offered were as good as at the point of a gun, for lack of a better ‘choice’ of words. Particularly when it came to working mums and dads feeding their children.

  4. “Social Cohesion: How mandates and the “team of five million” narrative fractured families and trust in public health”

    The bottom line is that no one should EVER trust in “public health”.
    Healthcare is an entirely private matter: any public system is always going to be wide open to politicisation

  5. I was living in a fishing coastal town of 600 people in Far North Queensland. There was a mandate from the Queensland Premier to stop people going to the beach as well as not put their boats in the water. We were 30ks from any other town.

    Nearby a young lady was bullied by the pseudo Covid Police to leave her 2 staff employment without her handbag over an issue of a vaxx status.

    I stayed home and couldn’t get medical assistance as I refused the vaccine .

  6. dianedraytonbuckland said – “… there was a shocking surge in those going hungry and homeless and the horrendous consequences of it All have destroyed many including the destruction of their health and their lives…”

    Yes indeedy, well over 100,000 put into early graves all across the country, with the death-toll still rising for many years to come, never mind all the rest of the economic slaughter and medical mayhem and societal demolition, now being deliberately compounded by a world-wide LOCKSTEP tsunami of unassimable Third World immigration to overwhelm and finish off whatever might be left. Plus whatever other machiavellian genocidal Globalist BS they’re busily scheming up behind the curtain right now.

    In any decent country, Mr. Rope and Mr. Lamp Post would have made short work of these disgusting sold-out paid-off foreign-owned Treasonous mass-murdering mongrel arsehole bastard vermin filth. Looks like we’ve still got another five or six years of growing up to do yet.

  7. “I was working in a rest home; we didn’t get a choice”

    Well maybe it wasn’t an enviable choice but it was still a choice
    Two of my adult kids walked out on employment on the spot accordingly – bugger the 3 months notice
    And by February 2022 the respective ploy had to be scrapped per the unforeseen/ensuing chaos
    So they were evidently not alone

  8. Hey, skip the BS. I use some simple statistics to prove the point. I did a simple google search “total deaths country-name 2019”, then 2020 and 2021. The best result was the Philippines: 2019 – 620k, 2020 – 614k, 2021 – 879k. That’s over 250,000 deaths in one year in 1 country out of a population of 115 million or so. It shuts down any argument except one doctor husband-wife team who stammered, “It must be diet, fast foods, McDonalds …” That was worth a laugh demonstrating the self-delusion of the medical profession. Other countries were the same but only about a 20% increase instead of 43%. Singapore had no increase.
    The medical profession is one one the world’s most money hungry. I’ve heard it said that heaven is shut to doctors.

  9. Looking back. what they made us go through was unpardonable and despicable. For example, the Homebush bay Olympic village event where parents had to drop of their kids for treatment. OZ and NZ gaystapo states of disorder, Doherty culling the shots with Serco kamps all over.
    Where’s Sutton these days, probably a nice payout through the revolving door with full pay pension for life! NZ sister/brotherhood too no doubt.

  10. “Readers would realise that not all adverse vaccine reactions were reported or recorded. Independent researchers and VAERS themselves recognise this fact and have estimated the real number of unreported injuries could be just as many as those reported.”……
    My research says that the real number of unreported injuries could be 20 unreported to one reported. Just saying.

  11. And yet there are heaps of sheeple who will scratch your eyes out if you tell them it was a scam. A global vaxxination directive implemented by global leaders at Warp Speed. Some leaders laid the ground and even issued directives in preparation for it before anyone had even heard of con-vid and Wuhan.

    Apart from its objectives, it turned out to be a brain kidnapping event aided and abetted by the MSM, governments, apparatchiks and widespread psychopants and spruikers who made it impossible for a person to earn a living and survive unless one did as they were told!!! Medical conscription by fear, terror and decree, deadly as it turned out to be for many.

    It must now hurt many people too much to feel so foolish, trusting and so very much deceived. Not to mention recycle their cowardice in quietly and obediently going along with the scam. They’d rather forget about it. “Don’t mention the scam, Major!!!”

  12. I looked up Fauci
    “Fauci serves as a Distinguished University Professor at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where he teaches, advises students, and engages in public-health research and policy work.”
    Trump is blagging about sending a hospital ship to Greenland, Fauci must have told them to reject it, or was that Cuomo, currently a radio host ( like his brother ) after losing two elections. Who is sick anyway ? The Danes are conscripting women to fight Trump, don’t they know what happened in Venezuela ? Danes, man, woman, or any of the other 17 genders, wouldn’t last 5 minutes. What is all this shit about these days. When in a hole, talk about Greenland. Everybody loves an Eskimo. Anthony Quinn. The Savage Innocents. 1960. Come on without. Come on within. You ain’t seen nothing like the mighty Quinn. I asked the bot for penguin recipes and it got very upset and started lecturing me. I’m sure the Maories used to eat all kinds of eggs. If they were va666ine injured they would have trouble pig-hunting. I asked the bot: “when will the white hats catch Fauci” and got a lot of mumbo jumbo. Nothing is happening !!! We await the WEF “Cyber Polygon” event. Texas gold money:

  13. Hey folks,

    Here’s a “lesson” that NO “Royal Commission” will EVER learn – our countries are owned and run lock stock & barrel by utterly remorseless foreign-owned genocidal mass-murdering highway-robbing GANGSTERS.

    Another “lesson” that will NEVER EVER see the light of day is that they categorically emphatically definitively DO NOT work for us.

    After all, why would the GANGSTERS running the whole ramshackle sorry excuse for a shakedown circus ever feel the need to admit any of that to US when they can just dance on our graves and stuff all their ill-gotten gains into their undies and run off laughing into the sunset just like celebrated paedophile and mass-murderer SNUFF SCOTTY?

  14. MR ROPE, I FIND YOUR REHTORICAL ENDLESS ATTACK ON THE PEOPLE THAT TRUSTED THE GOVT LIES AND PROPEGANDA, PERHAPS YOU COULD MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL AND GO OUT AND TALK TO PEOPLE AND ADVISE THEM OF THE DIRE SITUATION THAT AUS IS IN RATHER THAN SIT IDLY ON YOUR THORNY THRONE AND CRITISIZE.

  15. Many Australian truck drivers and health care workers and many others employed by many companies WERE FORCED to have the covid jabs or lose their jobs and not be able to pay rent or house payments or pay All their other bills and be able to buy food – there was a shocking surge in those going hungry and homeless and the horrendous consequences of it All have destroyed many including the destruction of their health and their lives.

  16. Pfizer’s “Secret” 2021 Declassified Report.
    CALL FOR IMMEDIATE WITHDRAWAL OF COVID “VACCINE” – Global Research – 9 February 2026.

    In recent developments (2025-2026) numerous peer reviewed reports (by outstanding medical doctors) concerning the mRNA vaccine have been published, several of which have identified the Covid-19 injection as a dangerous and toxic substance.
    In this regard, Dr. Peter McCullough, a prominent Cardiologist alongside Epidemiolgist Dr. Nicolas Hulscher have played a central role in refuting the official narrative concerning the mRNA “vaccine”.

  17. I laugh at those injured by the vaccines. They voluntarily took it – nobody held a gun to their head and forced them.
    Those injured by vaccines = deserve it = cattle.

  18. There are over 60 bio security weapons labs level 4 franchises globally. The head Oxford, with 12 in England and the rest placed strategically world wide proving we have one world government. Wuhan and Geelong sister labs for crying out loud. Since Covid we are replaced, being useless eaters in hunger games down under, NZ inclusive. That’s the thanks we get for contributing in building these 2 great nations.

  19. Don’t knock the vaxxx, it’s the only industry left in Oz (other than building one belt), with BSWL4 labs 3 in Victoria and 2 in Queensland.
    A prrrbright Doherty institution down under.

  20. .Head up !!!
    I’m getting hammered through my phone when I go onto ‘whistleblowing’ websites like CN.
    As the page starts to load it hangs for about 10 seconds and it is pumping 4 – 8mp/s which is HUGE… A non effected website like normal news etc loads quickly at around 250kb/s.
    So… This is the ‘killshot’ I’ve been talking about. ( turbo cancer etc if you’ve been faxed with the liquid chip coz it’s a receiver, and just sick feeling if not)
    Obvious Bob called it the ‘millimeter’ wave… I call it the EUGENICS WAVE.
    Be careful…
    Get a download meter app to show what is coming in real time…
    It’s not just CN… It’s all websites and people that the PTB don’t like… Run by ai I assume.
    Be careful…
    They are trying to pick us off one by one ATM.
    There’s been a few turbo cancer people around here ATM…
    Later I guess they’ll go full bore/boar in areas and say it’s a transmissible disease.
