As more people across the United States and the state of New Jersey begin to roll up their sleeves to protect themselves against COVID-19, the risk of scammers selling fraudulent vaccination cards is now higher than ever.
To combat this issue, Assemblyman Nicholas A. Chiaravalloti (D-31) proposed legislation on Wednesday that would criminalize the act of making, selling or displaying fake COVID-19 vaccination cards. Those caught buying, selling or possessing fake COVID-19 vaccination cards are subject to a fine.
“As we begin the slow recovery back to normalcy, we must not allow people to cheat the system at the expense of others,” said Chiaravalloti. “Falsifying medical documents poses a serious risk to those around you, and it must be taken seriously.”
