New Subset Of Voices For Freedom, Nurses For Freedom, Runs Media Campaign

On June 28 a new group named Nurses for Freedom NZ (NZFF), created by Voices for Freedom Local Coordinator Deborah Cunliffe, protested outside hospitals in 12 main centres. Their rallying cry was “end the mandates for unvaccinated nurses” amidst the New Zealand shortage of medical professionals and hospitals in crisis.

The seemingly innocuous call hides a darker agenda. Many of these medical professionals are spreading conspiracy theories about a shadowy New World Order, that the vaccine is going to cull the population, and a desire to stage show trials and executions of pro-vaccine doctors, MPs, academics, and judiciary under the guise of "Nuremberg 2.0.”

Right now, the NZNFF are rolling out a campaign to get press coverage via a letter posing as a “concerned citizen” (see attached). This is to spread their message and soften the public to their ideas, focusing on “the wobbly middle” that all Voices for Freedom groups try to attract.

FACT Aotearoa is concerned that people will unwittingly give Nurses for Freedom and therefore Voices for Freedom, a platform to air their disinformation. Unfortunately, there has already been media coverage of the protest, uncritically platforming people who would like to see their own colleagues tried for “crimes against humanity.”

FACT Aotearoa is happy to provide evidence and comment.
