BERLIN - A nurse in Germany is accused of allegedly injecting thousands of people with saline solution instead of giving them a COVID-19 vaccine, according to a Reuters report.
The nurse is suspected of injecting more than 10,000 individuals with saline solution at a vaccination center in Friesland, a rural district near the North Sea.
Sven Ambrosy, a district councilor, posted on his Facebook page on Friday announcing that new evidence shows the nurse may have injected more than the original 8,600 believed to be affected when the deception was discovered. "In total, this affects another 1.626 people.
