Belmopan. July 29, 2021. 11:30 a.m. 

The Ministry of Health & Wellness is aware of several reports of falsification and forgery of COVID-19 vaccination cards. The ministry strongly condemns this action and the matter has been referred to the police department.

The ministry reminds the public and every public vaccinator of the Public Health Act Chapter 40, Revised Edition 2000, 162 (2) which states, “Every person who wilfully signs a false certificate or return under this Part is guilty of an offence and is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months.”

The Ministry of Health & Wellness advises the public to report any suspicious COVID-19 vaccination card or document to the nearest public health clinic or the ministry.
