A major vaccination fraud occurred in the Passau district.

Among other things, two doctors are said to have forged vaccination certificates and injected diluted vaccine.

Passau - The Bavarian Central Office for Combating Fraud and Corruption in the Health Care System (ZKG) is said to have uncovered vaccination fraud on a particularly large scale.

Five people - including two doctors - from the Passau district are suspected of having falsified vaccination records and injecting diluted vaccine.

On Thursday, December 23, a spokesman for the ZKG announced that five suspects are said to be involved in the vaccination fraud.

Therefore, two practices and several apartments were searched in the district of Passau *.

Specifically, the doctors are said to have stuck labels from discarded vaccine doses as confirmation in the yellow vaccination card for patients who did not want to be vaccinated.

Other patients are said to have administered diluted vaccine without their knowledge, according to the ZKG spokesman.

Vaccination fraud in the Passau district: around 1000 patients affected

Furthermore, in an as yet unknown number of cases of the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians of Bavaria (KVB) vaccinations are alleged to have been faked and unjustifiably billed.

The accused are said to have disposed of the vaccine.

According to the Passau District Office, around 1000 patients are affected.

These have now been written to by the authority.

Those affected should do an antibody test.

300 people had already been tested on Wednesday.

Testing will continue on Thursday.

During the searches, officials seized documents and prepared syringes.

According to the ZKG, the material is now being examined.

The accused are now being investigated for fraud, willful bodily harm and incorrect certification of vaccinations, among other things.
