The fake COVID vaccination entry was made on October 3 (yesterday), which record was deleted soon after the entry. The health department has announced to forward a separate plea to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to probe the matter.

Similarly, Nawaz Sharif was administered the first dose of China’s Sinopharm vaccine at the Khwaja Saeed vaccination centre on September 23, according to the fake registration on the Nadra portal.
