Land and Red Cross rule out vaccination fraud
CORONAVIRUS
There are currently no signs of fraud in the Salzburg Impfstraßen and ordinations. At least that is what the State of Salzburg and the Salzburg Red Cross assume. In Vienna, employees in a vaccination street are said to have filled out vaccination certificates for money without anyone actually being vaccinated.
The fraudulent cases and attempts at fraud at Austria’s largest coronavirus vaccination route in the Austria Center in Vienna have been preoccupying the authorities since the end of December: First, several employees are said to have filled out and stamped vaccination passports for money, ALTHOUGH the people were not vaccinated. This week is from bribery attempts in the vaccination booth to get proof of vaccination without vaccination.
Salzburger Impfstraßen: “No incidents”
There are no reports of such incidents from the Salzburg Impfstraßen, emphasize both the police and the public prosecutor’s office as well as the Red Cross, which operates the Impfstraßen. The teams there would work very conscientiously, says Red Cross spokeswoman Roberta Thanner.
No reports from ordinations
There are also no suspicious reports from the around 400 impfordinations of resident doctors across the country, according to the vaccination coordination of the State of Salzburg. Here you trust the ordination team. But one thing is also clear: the doctors are responsible in this area. Should irregularities become known, they would be followed up and reported, emphasizes the State of Salzburg.
