Ecuadorian police have caught an alternative medicine clinic in administering tens of thousands of doses of a fake coronavirus vaccine. It is reported by the El Comercio edition.
The center offered patients injections of an unknown substance worth $ 15, promising immunity from COVID-19 after three injections. The authorities estimate that the clinic has received about 70 thousand vaccinations.
At the same time, the owners of the clinic themselves claimed that they were not selling vaccines, but “serums and vitamins” to strengthen immunity. The owner of the clinic said she had cured 20,000 patients.
