SINGAPORE, Jan 31 (The Straits Times/ANN): Iris Koh, the founder of anti-vaccine group Healing the Divide, was denied bail in the High Court on Monday (Jan 31), as the prosecution revealed that at least 20 patients were involved in an alleged vaccination fraud conspiracy that she has been charged with.

Koh, 46, was charged last Friday with conspiring with general practitioner Jipson Quah to make false representations to the Ministry of Health (MOH) that unvaccinated people were given the Sinopharm vaccine, when they were not.
