Same here. Wheezy.

Not sure I follow you here.

On my system:

   $ for pkg in openssh-{client,server} ; do apt-get changelog ${pkg} ; done
   Err Changelog for openssh-client (http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/updates/main/o/openssh/openssh_6.0p1-4+deb7u6/changelog)

     404  Not Found [IP: 128.101.240.215 80]
   E: changelog download failed

As shown, I get only errors, not changelogs. But, as you can already
tell from the errors above, I don't have the backported release 6.6 of
either package installed:

  $ dpkg-query -W openssh-{client,server}
  openssh-client  1:6.0p1-4+deb7u6
  openssh-server  1:6.0p1-4+deb7u6

Instead I currently have installed release 6.0, from regular wheezy
repo, and the last applied update was a security update.

But, regardless, just because "apt-get changelog" can't get them
doesn't mean *I* can't get the changelogs for my version, and examine
patches. For example:

   $ apt-get --diff-only source openssh-client="$(dpkg-query -Wf '${Version}' openssh-client)"
   [output snipped]

   $ ls  # notice the absence of "-client,-server" in filename; hence, afaict, apt-get changelog fails
   openssh_6.0p1-4+deb7u6.debian.tar.gz

   $ gunzip openssh_6.0p1-4+deb7u6.debian.tar.gz && tar xf openssh_6.0p1-4+deb7u6.debian.tar

   $ head debian/changelog
   openssh (1:6.0p1-4+deb7u6) wheezy-security; urgency=high

     * Non-maintainer upload by the Long Tem Security Team.
     * Limit password length to avoid DOS attack (CVE-2016-6515). Closes:
       #833823.

    -- Ola Lundqvist <opal@debian.og>  Tue, 09 Aug 2016 09:56:02 +0000

   openssh (1:6.0p1-4+deb7u5) wheezy-security; urgency=high

   $ ls debian/patches/*.patch | wc -l
   35

So that's my system.

Now, you say you have the backported releases, version 1:6.6p1-4~bpo70+1 installed on yours.

But "apt-get changelog" *will* fetch changelogs for this version. Running this command

  $ for pkg in openssh-{client,server} ; do apt-get changelog ${pkg}=1:6.6p1-4~bpo70+1 ; done

on my system shows them to me. I believe it should do so on yours,
too, if you have wheezy-backports repo enabled in your sources.list.

If running, on your system,

   $ for pkg in openssh-{client,server} ; do apt-get changelog ${pkg} ; done

without specifying a version does not also show you those same
changelogs, then something does not add up.

Cheers.

   Systems that do not need the duplex capability may instead use
   simplex communication, in which one device transmits and the others
   can only "listen". Examples are broadcast radio and television,
   garage door openers, baby monitors, wireless microphones, and
   surveillance cameras. In these devices communication is only in one
   direction.
