Midwife Fined $300K for Falsifying Vaccine Records for 1,500 Kids

Jeanette Breen, a licensed midwife in Nassau County, has been fined $300,000 by the state Department of Health for falsifying vaccination records for nearly 1,500 children by administering unauthorized oral pellets and falsely claiming they were immunized. The children's records have been voided, and they must show proof of up-to-date vaccinations before returning to school. Breen admitted to falsely stating that the children received various vaccines and agreed to the fine as part of a stipulation. This incident has raised concerns about public health and the integrity of the immunization system.
