Articles by Dr. Guy Hatchard PhD [Hatchard Report]

In this opinion, Dr Guy Hatchard examines the retraction of a prominent Covid vaccine research paper following findings of fabricated data and falsified images. He questions the integrity of biotechnology research, raises concerns about possible links between mRNA vaccination and autoimmune disease, and challenges New Zealand health authorities to release comprehensive health data for independent scrutiny. His central argument is that public…

Dr Guy Hatchard questions why New Zealand's rising emergency department presentations have not prompted a comprehensive investigation into possible contributing factors, including Covid-19 vaccination history. He examines research into IgG4 immune responses, challenges assumptions about mRNA vaccine safety and calls for greater transparency from Health NZ. His opinion also considers how political parties and the media have responded to the…

Dr Guy Hatchard examines new emergency department data showing a sharp rise in patient numbers and serious presentations across New Zealand. He argues the deterioration accelerated after 2021 and challenges claims that increased funding and staffing alone can resolve the crisis. Linking the trend to Covid vaccination and wider biotechnology, Hatchard calls for a fundamental reassessment of health policy and greater emphasis on diet, exercise…

Dr Guy Hatchard warns that New Zealand's worsening health crisis cannot be resolved through increased funding and policy changes alone. Citing overcrowded hospitals, rising illness and growing healthcare pressures, he questions the impact of modern pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, processed foods and mRNA vaccines. While welcoming proposed health reforms, Hatchard argues that prevention, improved nutrition, exercise, meditation and personal…

Subtitle · Biotechnology is moving beyond GM crops and into everyday products · Summary Intro · Dr Guy Hatchard argues that the debate over gene technology now extends far beyond genetically modified crops. He points to the growing use of biosynthetic compounds in cosmetics, food production, medicine and consumer products, questioning whether regulation and safety testing have kept pace. From hyaluronic acid to chemicals that alter fruit…

Younger generations are ageing faster and experiencing rising rates of early-onset cancer, but what is driving the trend? Dr Guy Hatchard examines research into biological ageing and questions whether modern exposures — including industrially fermented ingredients increasingly found in cosmetics, foods and supplements — deserve greater scrutiny. He argues that rapidly changing manufacturing processes and biotechnology warrant far more…

Guy Hatchard argues that New Zealand’s latest mortality figures should be treated as a warning sign, with deaths rising in the year to June 2026 while birth and fertility rates continue to fall. Pointing to excess mortality, cardiac and cancer concerns and unprecedented pressure from winter illness, he calls for Health NZ to investigate health outcomes by age, vaccination status and disease type, and make the findings public. The year ended…

Biotechnology is transforming medicine, agriculture and scientific research at an unprecedented pace, while raising important questions about safety, ethics and public oversight. In this opinion piece, Dr Guy Hatchard argues that the risks associated with genetic technologies and gain-of-function research deserve greater public scrutiny, and that lessons from the Covid-19 pandemic should prompt a reassessment of current scientific and…

Much loved Kiwi actor Sam Neill has died suddenly. · In March 2023 Neill announced he had been diagnosed with Stage 3 angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (a rare form of blood cancer) the previous year. Neill underwent chemotherapy which failed to stem the cancer progression so he switched to bi-weekly infusions of a rare specialised anti-cancer drug which initially showed promise, until it too failed. · In 2025–2026 Neill enrolled in an…

On the 25th January 2026, two men stepped off an arriving plane at Detroit Metropolitan Airport en route from the Congo carrying a black case. At the border they declared that the case contained instruments, but customs officials found it contained vials of Monkeypox virus and human DNA in violation of federal law. Both men worked at the National Institute of Health (NIH) Rocky Mountain Laboratory where one of them was Chief of the Virus…
