Faking certs an act of betrayal

LIKE other right-thinking Malaysians, I am dismayed and appalled by the recent string of reports on fake vaccination certificates being sold by unscrupulous individuals in private clinics. I’ve read that 5,600 people in Selangor and another 1,900 in Terengganu have allegedly bought these fake certificates, but the number could be higher.

Then it was reported that a private clinic in Gombak certified by the Health Ministry to administer Covid-19 vaccines allegedly threw away the vaccines and returned the empty vials to the ministry as proof that the shots had been administered. To make things worse, the clinic also issued legitimate digital vaccination certificates to people who did not get the jabs.
