Is it possible to catch patients faking their own vaccinations?
The criminal charges against a GP practice nurse have raised questions about whether you can detect whether someone has been vaccinated
The world of general practice has certainly become a strange and slightly bizarre place in recent times.
Last week came news reports of a nurse recruited to administer COVID-19 vaccinations at a clinic in WA.
The police were alerted when the practice owner, Dr Sean Stevens, allegedly spotted her inserting the needle into a teenager’s arm but not pushing the plunger and then disposing of the full syringe.
She is then said to have made a false entry into the practice’s records that someone else in the practice had administered the vaccine.
