FOI Letters we have requested from the Government, Regulators, and Policy & Decision Makers
Following the unsatisfactory response to our previous FOI to the MHRA on a possible link between Scottish Mortality data and Cardiac Deaths and the Covid vaccine rollout, we have sent a further FOI request asking for further data relating to:
Letter addressed to Dr Ranee Thakar (President of the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology) on behalf of the doctors group.
Follow-up Appeal Letter to RCOG signed by the original group of doctors expressing dismay at the lack of response from the letter sent in December to Dr Thakar and dismay that the RCOG latest position statement on COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy has not taken any of our concerns into account. We also submitted a number of Freedom of Information Requests.
Response from RCOG Information Governance (IG) Team stating that as the RCOG is not a public authority they are not obliged to provide any information requested under the FOIA.
Letter to the RCOG Information Governance (IG) Team to challenge their decision not to answer the FOI requests.
RCOG IG Team response reiterating their refusal to answer our FOI requests and stating "The College considers this to be a full response to your inquiries".
Letter of complaint to RCOG President Dr Thakar expressing deep disappointment at the failure of the RCOG to engage with the serious and significant issues that the doctors have raised and concluding that "It is now obvious that the RCOG has no intention in engaging in any kind of discourse on the subject, even though the referenced documents from the college are full of inaccuracies which do not stand up to scientific scrutiny".
Several UKMFA doctors have joined over 60 doctors in signing this open letter to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, Royal College of Midwives and UK Health Security Agency, calling for an urgent review of the evidence around the safety of COVID-19 vaccine use in pregnancy.
We argue that current official advice "is not grounded in robust data based on ethically conducted research" and evidence multiple serious safety signals and research data that should prompt an immediate halt to the rollout to pregnant women pending a full, independent safety analysis.
On 23/02/23 we sent a follow-up Appeal Letter, with a number of FOI Requests, to the RCOG expressing our dismay at the lack of response from a letter sent in December 2022 to RCOG President Dr Ranee Thakar, and that the RCOG's latest position statement on COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy had not taken any of our concerns into account.

UKMFA sent an Freedom of Information Request to Prof Jenny Kurinczuk, head of the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit (NPEU), to ask for data supporting their graphic entitled “Key Information on COVID-19 in Pregnancy” which presents selected data with the apparent purpose to convey two main messages (COVID-19 is dangerous for pregnant women and their babies and COVID-19 vaccines reduce this risk) with the aim of recommending COVID-19 vaccination to pregnant women.
We received this response from the University of Oxford Information Compliance Team regarding our request on the 31st October 2022, for an Internal Review of the NPEU response to our original FOI request.
We were not satisfied by their response, so we have sent a follow-up FOI request.
UKMFA sent an FOI request to Dame June Raine, Chief Executive of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), asking for to any and all documents or minutes of meetings analysing Scottish excess all-cause mortality data, as well as Scottish data regarding ambulance callouts for cardiac events in young people and their temporal associations with COVID-19 vaccinations.
We stated our serious concern that the temporal association between all-cause mortality and also cardiac morbidity and COVID-19 vaccination in different age groups is striking und undeniable.
We are not satisfied with their response, so we have sent a further FOI request asking for further data relating to:
