Poverty and Medicine

The connection between poverty and ill health is well established in poor nations, where poverty increases the risk of illness and injury, which in turn limits the individual’s ability to earn an income whilst simultaneously increasing the need to pay for medical care. Across the globe many millions live with crushing debt caused by medical costs, often relating to preventable conditions, and very often relating to medical error.

Prevalent in the vaccine injury testimonies at Canada’s Allison Inquiry in Ottawa from 8-11 September 2026, was the experience of impoverishment caused by loss of income combined with unaffordable health care costs. As medical doctors working with the vaccine injured, we can confirm a similar trend amongst New Zealand’s vaccine injured.

Crowdfunding for Medical Costs

Defined as the practice of raising money from a large number of people, typically via the internet, crowdfunding has become an essential feature in the lives of those experiencing unaffordable health care costs. Today’s social media is teeming with video footage of young people seeking financial support to afford treatment for life threatening conditions such as cancer and motor neuron disease. All use crowdfunding platforms as a collection point for those wishing to contribute to their cause.

Crowdfunding platforms are private companies providing a central point for donors to send funds. The platform typically takes a percentage of donations before forwarding the rest to the allocated bank account of the recipient.  There are at least 75 such platforms in operation.

Two of the best known crowdfunding platforms used in New Zealand are GiveALittle and GoFundMe.

Headquartered in Auckland with eight staff, GiveALittle was founded in 2008 and acquired by Perpetual Guardian in 2020. With assets worth $4 billion, Perpetual Guardian describe themselves as New Zealand’s premier provider of estate planning services.

GiveALittle take a service fee of 5% of all donations, which is reduced to an average 2% cost to recipients due to most donors adding the service fee to the amount of their donation. Since 2008 they have taken a total of $361.2 million in donations, suggesting total company earnings of over $18 million.

Also founded in 2008, GoFundMe was rebranded in 2010 and became the world’s largest crowdfunding platform in 2017. The company takes 2.9% + 0.30c per donation. More than $50 million is raised each week, suggesting total company earnings of more than $1.45 million per week.

Impersonating Crowdfunders

It is no secret that crowdfunding is big business. Whilst serving a useful purpose, these platforms are yet another beneficiary in the pandemic business model that oversees harm and impoverishment for profit.

It should come as no surprise to anyone who understands the corruption of the pandemic industry, that an explosion in crowdfund platform impersonators is being seen on social media. The scam is very simple, and very easy to detect.

Imposters create a webpage that looks similar to any other crowdfunding platform, with a logo, an endearing or official-sounding name, and all of the appropriate buttons (Home, About Us, Contact Us, FAQ and Donate). They add the stolen photographs, video footage and edited profile of genuine fundraisers.

The page appears entirely genuine and often tens of thousands of dollars have been raised by unsuspecting donors. The only button that works on these fraudulent sites is the “DONATE” button. All other buttons lead to nothing.

We suggest that this is an inevitable evolution in a culture that is steeped in fraud and crime. The vaccine injured have been silenced, denied and attacked for over five years now. It is only natural that the next step would be to divert funds from their cause, abusing the empathy of decent people, in order to acquire ill-gotten gains.

Please be careful where you channel any financial contributions during our burgeoning health crisis. Explore any webpage posing as a crowdfunder. Do all of the buttons work? For example is there a Home Page? Is there an About Us page? Are there FAQs to read? Can you find what percentage of your donation will go to the platform vs how much will be sent to the actual cause? Is there a way to contact the website owners? Or is the only working website feature a Donate button likely leading to the private bank account of someone committing fraud?

There are ways to donate directly to the vaccine injured, bypassing all crowdfunding sources by making contact through those who support them such as our own NZDHHC Clinic.

    Behavioral conditioning for the big political policy projects (and as you say fraudsters) .
    The money raising business organizations are fraud umbrellas for the most . Hosting heaps of political, Big pharma’s lobbyists to push agendas .
    EG the woman who was going to die anyway (wasn’t in great pain) but led the campaign for further role changes in NZ medicine away from that of a physician .
    They pushed half of the drs into believing in the in$urers media campaign of “medical suicide” and you all know there always was legislation that already supported legally giving enough pain relief to relieve the pain when asked for by a terminal patient (even if its going to be fatal( the charity and campaign was fraud). Nowadays the health care provider mindset about euthanasia that turned to active euthanasia turbo “medical suicide”( called “assisted dying”) is bonkers. If there are real drs reading this they will agree with me we need to switch our warped insurance model (political medical ) ideology to focus on health and assisted living! Most people don’t know how to live with dignity, one need not worry about death( as a body its our common end of the narrative ) .
    ^My (unpaid) full time attendant carer couldnt even get onto either of those 2 creepy money raising sites to try to raise money for a legitimate urgently needed operation.
    I always find the scammers that prey of good natured charitable people like Red Cross( City Mission since management change and some of the so called charitable and disability Trusts -with 17 boards ) hard to swallow. (They were teaching the charitable how to scan QR codes while they infantilized scanned 50 occult alien faced wasps around wellington)
    The Walking Woke.

    I’m not donating to “vaccine injured” as there was no “vaccine” .
    Fear is also a cause of dis ease.
    Correlation is not causation, i dont know what was in the shot. Even saline can hurt some people.
    have you eliminated mass thyroid medications in water, EMF and chronic intense stress for years of media CONVID campaign , obesity toxic mined and body diets and many other causes of ill being?
    Its a priority to end the public’s belief in a now debunked 1861 germ hypothesis that is the profitable base of much fear and fraud.
