82 Teachers Accused Of Using Fake Vax Cards Ordered Back On City Payroll

The teachers are believed to have skirted the city’s vaccine mandate, which required every municipal worker to show proof of vaccination or be terminated, unless granted a religious or medical exemption. Close to 1,000 DOE employees who refused to comply have been fired.

The DOE suspended the 82 teachers without pay on April 25 after their names popped up as customers of a Long Island pediatric center accused of selling bogus vaccine cards.

The nurse practitioner-owner and two staffers at Wild Child Pediatric Healthcare were charged with racking up $1.5 million in sales, charging adults $220 for each dose falsely marked on the card, or $440 for both doses, according to the Nassau County District Attorney’s office.
