Vaccination center worker, 48, is arrested for selling stolen doses of Chinese COVID-19 vaccine Sinopharm for $53 on streets of Argentina
Leonardo Alvarado was arrested in Berisso, near Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Monday for selling four doses of the Chinese Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine
Cops set up an undercover operation after a woman approached the mayor of the town of Berisso and told him she had met a man who offered her the vaccine
Investigators recorded a conversation between the woman and Alvarado, who said he was selling the vaccine only because his employer had not paid him
Alvarado was busted with eight vaccine vials in a small plastic bag, and had at least 12 empty vials and syringes in his car
