Daily Monitor understands that a joint health intelligence team on June 17 raided Kiswa Health Centre, a vaccination centre in Kampala, and found that nurses there were charging people between USh100,00 and USh200,000 for each dose.
During the operation, the detective impounded a book with a list of people who have been vaccinated with the drug . The book had names of persons and serial numbers of certificates awarded to those who had been vaccinated.
“We got a social media story and information from the Resident District Commissioner for Nakawa about people who were carrying out Covid-19 vaccination. We informed the police, State House intelligence team and Chieftaincy of Military intelligence to do undercover work. In the process, two nurses, who were vaccinating individuals and people in corporate institutions with Covid-19 vaccine , were arrested and taken to Jinja Road Police Station for investigations,” he said.
Two people have been arrested in Uganda for giving out fake Covid-19 vaccines. One more is on the run.
It is believed that they may have injected up to 800 workers at private companies that had arranged vaccinations for their staff.
They were charging between 100,000 Ugandan shillings ($28, £20) and 200,000 Ugandan shillings per jab.
State House s Health Monitoring Unit (HMU) says it received a tip-off via local leaders that the two were travelling around some neighbourhoods of the capital, Kampala, claiming to be hospital healthcare workers.
HMU’s Dr Warren Namara said that it was not yet clear what was in the fake jabs, but his team was testing the fluid.
