Man in Germany gets '90 COVID jabs to sell forged vaccine passes'

In Germany, a man was allegedly given the COVID jab as many as 90 times to make fake vaccination cards.

According to news agency dpa, the man has not been identified in accordance with German privacy laws, but has been taken into police custody.
