A nurse in Germany was arrested this week for allegedly giving thousands of people saline shots instead of COVID-19 vaccines.
“Today I have the sad duty to inform around 8,600 people ... that it cannot be ruled out they may have received a saline solution instead of their vaccination at their vaccination appointment. For peace of mind we would recommend people get an additional vaccination,” said the district administrator of Friesland, Sven Ambrosy, in a statement, according to a German-to-English translation.
