A German man is suspected of injecting up to 90 doses of Covid-19 vaccine

A 60-year-old man in Germany is said to have vaccinated against Covid-19 dozens of times to sell fake vaccination cards with batch numbers of real vaccines to people who do not want to be vaccinated.

The man is believed to have received around 90 shots of the Covid-19 vaccine at vaccination centers in the eastern German state of Saxony for months until police arrested him earlier this month, the news agency said. German news DPA reported on 3-4.

The identity of the man from the city of Magdeburg, in the state of Saxony-Anhalt (also in eastern Germany), was not released under the country's privacy regulations.

The suspect was not arrested but is being investigated for illegally issuing vaccination cards and forging documents, the DPA reported.

He was spotted at a vaccination center in Eilenburg in the state of Saxony when we went in for a Covid-19 shot for the second day in a row. Police confiscated several blank vaccination cards from this person and started criminal proceedings.

Police said that every time he went to a vaccination center, the man brought a new and blank vaccination document. After being injected, the man took down pages with information related to the shot and sold them to people who did not want the vaccine.

It is not clear whether about 90 doses of Covid-19 vaccine, of different brands, given to the man mentioned above have any impact on his health.

German police have carried out several raids related to the forging of vaccination certificates in recent months. Many people refuse to get vaccinated but want a certificate of vaccination so that they can easily participate in public life as well as enter restaurants, theatres, swimming pools or workplaces.
