A pharmacist at a hospital in Wisconsin, USA, was arrested last Thursday on suspicion of sabotaging about 550 doses of Moderna vaccines against the corona virus. The vaccine doses are refrigerated to prevent spoilage. View Reuters report:

The pharmacist, whose name was not released, left about 57 vials of vaccine, with each vial containing about 10 servings. According to the Reuters news agency, the drugs were left out of the refrigerator long enough so that the vaccine became ineffective, thus erasing more than 500 vaccine doses that could have protected U.S. citizens from the global virus.
A modern company stated that receiving an injection of any of the vaccine doses left out of the refrigerator does not pose a danger to those who received the vaccine, but the vaccine cream is simply ineffective. That is, people who received the vaccine that was left out of the refrigerator are not immune to the virus, said Dr. Jeff Barr, director of Aurora Hospital. .
Local police said in an official statement that the pharmacist “knew the vaccines were useless and yet gave the vaccine doses to people who came to get vaccinated.” Apparently, the incident came in the wake of U.S. public opinion polls, which show skepticism about the safety of corona vaccines. Arrested and imprisoned in a state-run Milwaukee jail on charges of endangering public health, drug forgery and criminal property damage.
