Police say they have arrested two doctor’s assistants in Amsterdam on suspicion of selling fake COVID-19 vaccination registrations
THE HAGUE, Netherlands -- Two doctor's assistants in Amsterdam have been arrested on suspicion of selling fake COVID-19 vaccination registrations, police in the Dutch capital said Wednesday.
Vaccination registrations are needed to get a COVID-19 pass that people have to show to get into bars and restaurants in the Netherlands.
The announcement came a day after the Dutch government said it is extending the use of COVID-19 passes to more public places starting Saturday, amid sharply rising infection rates and hospital admissions.
“Investigations show that the women helped dozens of people get a proof of vaccination without them having had a shot,” Amsterdam police said in a statement. The women allegedly were paid 500-1,000 euros ($580-1,160) for a vaccination certificate.
The women, aged 30 and 31, both worked in a general practitioner's practice in Amsterdam. Police said they discovered the fraud during an investigation into illicit drugs.
Police said they are continuing their investigation into people who bought a fake registration.
