This website was created to inform people about Town of Port Hedland's Council Motion to suspend Pfizer and Moderna's COVID-19 vaccines due to DNA contamination.  

Last updated 24 March 2025

Overview

DNA contamination discovered

Excessive DNA contamination has been discovered in Australian Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccine vials (including a Pfizer kids’ dose).

The DNA contamination was reported by Dr David Speicher of Canada. The levels of DNA contamination discovered in the Australian vials tested exceed the Therapeutic Goods Administration regulated amounts by between 7 and 145 times the legal level.  Synthetic DNA contamination at these levels should not be in vaccines. Nor should the SV40 enhancer that is also in the Pfizer vials.

Dr Speicher's findings of DNA contamination in Australian vials mirror what has been reported by researchers in Germany, Canada, the USA, France including more recently vials sourced from Ireland and Slovakia.

MP Broadbent's letter to the PM

When MP Russell Broadbent learned of Dr Speicher’s Australian test results he immediately wrote to the Prime Minister Albanese to inform him of the concerning discovery. Mr Broadbent called on the Prime Minister of Australia to immediately suspend use of these mRNA injections and called for answers. Mr Broadbent has now sent three letters to the Prime Minister and not received a reply from him, although he has now received a reply from the Department of Health dismissing the DNA contamination.

Port Hedland Council's Motion

Similarly, at a local government level, when several concerned Town of Port Hedland Councillors learned of Dr Speicher’s Australian test results, they organised a Special Council Meeting held 11 October 2024.

Passing with a 5 / 2 majority, the Town of Port Hedland Council agreed to send letters about the DNA contamination in Australian COVID-19 vaccines to:

1. The Prime Minister to immediately suspend the use of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines (like the letters sent by Mr. Broadbent).
2. Every registered health practitioner and medical clinic operating within the Port Hedland Local Government Area.
3. All other Australian Local Government Councils.
4. The council agreed to a number of further actions that you can view in the Notice of Motion Tile below.

Each letter is to include Dr Speicher's Report of his testing of the Australian vials and Mr Broadbent's letters.

The Town of Port Hedland Council has taken this affirmative action having recognised that it has a moral responsibility for the health and well being of its people along with any State and Federal Government legislated responsibilities. Given the severity of the possible issues, the councillors are duty bound to take steps to address the potential DNA contamination issues.

All Councils notified

On 23 October 2024, Town of Port Hedland Councillor Camilo Blanco (in his personal capacity) sent all Councils in Australia the Letter outlined in the Motion that informed them of the DNA contamination in Australian vials and Mr Broadbent letters to the Prime Minister.

Cr Blanco has sent five further follow up letters to all 537 Councils and their Councillors throughout Australia (including newly appointed councillors in NSW and VIC).
