US seizes 3,000 fake COVID-19 vaccination cards in Alaska
The Peninsula
ANCHORAGE - U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents in Anchorage seized more than 3,000 counterfeit COVID-19 vaccination cards sent from China, officials said on Thursday.
The cards were of "low-quality printing" but closely resembled authentic Centers for Disease Control and Prevention certificates provided to vaccine recipients, the agency said in a statement. The Alaska shipment follows a similar seizure that Customs and Border Protection reported last week in Memphis, in which counterfeit cards were also sent from China.More Related News
