(ANSA) - TURIN, 02 DEC - He presented himself at the vaccination hub with a silicone forearm, thinking he was deceiving health workers - who did not fall into the trap - and obtaining the Green pass without the vaccine. A 50-year-old will be reported to the carabinieri and the ASL will report the case to the prosecutor. It happened tonight in Biella, in a vaccination center with direct access for the first doses. "The case borders on the ridiculous, were it not for the fact that we are talking about a gesture of enormous gravity, unacceptable in the face of the sacrifice that the pandemic is making the whole community pay", underline the governor Alberto Cirio and the councilor for health, Luigi Icardi.
Although the silicone application was very similar to real skin, the color and the perception to the touch made the healthcare worker involved in the vaccination suspicious, who then asked the person to show their entire arm. Once discovered, the subject tried to get the operator to turn a blind eye.
"The promptness and skill of the operator have ruined the plans of this subject who will now answer to justice - add Cirio and Icardi -. Our thanks, on the other hand, goes to all health workers who have been continuously involved in our vaccination campaign without interruption for months. never lower attention and professionalism, starting precisely with those who acted promptly this evening in Biella, one of the first ASL to have also already achieved virtuously more than 93% of the daily administration target that the Region has given to its companies to run faster and faster with third doses ".
