KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 8 — The ongoing Covid-19 vaccination drive and the subsequent easing of restrictions for fully vaccinated individuals have turned the vaccination certificate into a valuable commodity.
Not surprisingly, allegations of unimmunised individuals paying certain private clinics — which also serve as Covid-19 vaccination centres — RM10 to RM15 for a fake vaccination certificate have gone viral on social media recently. Last month, the government decided to ease certain social restrictions for the fully vaccinated community. The move also served as an incentive to those who have yet to get the vaccine so that the government can achieve its target of vaccinating 80 per cent of the population by the end of October to attain herd immunity.
“Some people have also tried asking us if we knew of any clinic that offered the digital certificate,” said Dr Mohd Shafiz, who did not refute allegations that some clinics are offering fake vaccination certificates. He himself has not heard of any clinic that offers fake vaccination certificates but “as the person in charge of a vaccination centre , I have been informed that there are some parties selling blank vaccination certificates at PPV”.
Corruption in Malaysia is just INSANE.
Not surprised..
