Interpol, the International Criminal Police Organization, has made direct contact with the Irish Government and other EU member states, warning them to be on high alert regarding the expected sale of fake, black market, Covid-19 vaccines.
Interpol have stated that there is a real possibility that criminal organisations will now begin selling the fake vaccines online.
They state that people should be aware that such sales won’t be actual official vaccines, they won’t work and won’t come with a digital vaccination passport.
This warning comes as an Tánaiste Leo Varadkar officially confirmed that vaccine will be provided to everyone in the Irish state who wants it, at no initial cost.
These vaccines however will cost the Irish State more than €117m, but Mr Varadkar has informed Dáil Éireann that the burden would be met by general taxation, with no further new cost imposition placed on the Irish public.
