Articles by Dr. Guy Hatchard PhD [Hatchard Report]

This article addresses some of the most profound philosophical and spiritual questions that we ask as we seek to understand our existence. It challenges some popular notions that have derived from the discoveries of Darwin and modern genetics, from the perspective of an interdisciplinary comprehensive scientific understanding. On June 5 a paper was published by the prestigious journal Cell entitled “Replaying germinal center evolution on a…

Given NZ’s vulnerability to natural disasters, this article raises questions about new legislation that should be of concern to everyone. · Two weeks ago we had a flood in our house after a water pipe burst in the ceiling cavity. Within 2 days our insurance company had assessed and settled the claim. We were able to start work immediately to remedy the damage. In contrast, on January 18th we suffered a devastating rain event. Over 300mm of rain…

By Guy Hatchard · A bill containing amendments to the HSNO (Hazardous Substances and New Organisms) Act passed its first reading in Parliament on May 14 with the support of Labour and the Coalition. It is hard to escape the notion that this bill is simply the Gene Technology Bill Mark 2. There are provisions in the amendments which allow for fast tracking of genetically modified organisms if they are approved overseas. It seems the government…

In our latest release “The Fall of the House of Biotechnology”, I began by saying it was among the most important articles we have published. One subscriber wrote back saying “If it is so important why can’t you say it in one sentence?”. This was an interesting question, because I realised that we live in a one sentence age, where our leaders and multinational corporations entrap us with empty slogans like “safe and effective” which are…

After the failure of the Royal Commission on Covid-19, we are all wondering ‘where to from here?’ We are not alone. The entire biotech industry is now planning future expansion bolstered by the ‘findings’ (???) of pandemic inquiries in multiple countries which have failed to criticise biotech experimentation. Bucking the trend of ‘all systems go’, Alina Chan, a molecular biologist and postdoctoral fellow at the Broad Institute of MIT and…

In our recent article “The Royal Commission Report is a Scientific and Ethical Failure", we reported on some of its key deficiencies. With the benefit of some more time to reflect, we want to address additional significant factors that the Commission overlooked which it should have highlighted and addressed. During the last five years the Hatchard Report has published more than 500 articles covering every aspect of the pandemic, we have had a…

In his column Biosafety Now, Dr. Simon Wain-Hobson revisits controversial gain of function research conducted in 2014 funded by US NIH contract HHSN26620070001 which successfully managed to transfer the H7N1 avian (bird flu) virus from ostriches to ferrets. Once transferred, the virus established itself in the ‘captive’ lab ferrets sufficiently to cause airborne transmission to other ferrets without loss of virulence. H7N1 is as deadly for…

This is among the most important articles that we have published not just because it challenges the current tsunami of polypharmacy that is being thrust upon us, but it also cites research evidence that begins to reveal the limitations of the standard interpretations of genetic function.

Following global giant Kraft Heinz’s decision to close their iconic NZ Watties growing and processing operation, rival company McCain, also a food multinational with an annual turnover of NZ$17 billion, is following suit. McCain has announced the closure of their Hastings vegetable processing operation, effective at the end of the 2026 growing season. A McCain spokesperson said “the decision follows a strategic review of our Hastings operations…

For far too long the government, its advisors and the media have been maintaining the fiction that criticism of mRNA Covid vaccines is outside of “settled science”. In other words, safety concerns being widely voiced are false and unfounded. In fact mRNA vaccines are wrongly being claimed as safe in the face of incontrovertible evidence of risk. Last week the Royal Commission on Covid-19 Phase 2 opened the lid of Pandora’s Box, but it didn’t…
