Christopher Thanos

Dear Therapeutic Goods Administration,

I am requesting information under the freedom of information act.
The information I am requesting is related to the current PCR tests in use by state governments to test for Covid-19. As these tests are intrusive and invasive, millions of DNA samples have been taken unknowingly from Australian citizens under the guise of testing for Covid-19. I would like to know where this information and DNA profiling is stored, why it is stored and what the government is planning to do with this information.
You can email me on [email address]

Yours faithfully,

Chris Thanos

FOI, Therapeutic Goods Administration

Dear Mr Thanos,

 

I refer to your request below received by the Department of Health (the
department) on 1 August 2021, seeking access under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOI Act) to the following:

 

              The information I am requesting is related to the current
PCR tests in use by state governments to test for   Covid-19. As these
tests are intrusive and invasive, millions of DNA samples have been taken
unknowingly      from Australian citizens under the guise of testing for
Covid-19. I would like to know where this information     and DNA
profiling is stored, why it is stored and what the government is planning
to do with this        information.

 

As your request refers to state governments, we advise that the request is
better suited for the State and Territory Health Departments to respond.

 

Please respond by Wednesday 18 August 2021 if you wish the department to 
continue processing your request. If you do not respond by this date, the 
department will consider your request withdrawn.

 

Kind regards,
