"Midwife's Fake Vaccine Scheme Invalidates Thousands of Children's Immunizations"

A Long Island midwife, Jeanette Breen, has been found to have administered nearly 12,500 fake immunizations to approximately 1,500 school-aged patients, leading to voided state immunization records for affected children across New York. The scheme involved administering oral pellets instead of authorized vaccinations, affecting children in various counties. Breen has been fined $300,000 and permanently banned from administering reportable vaccinations or accessing the state's immunization records system. Affected schools are being notified to exclude non-compliant students and inform parents of their responsibility to vaccinate.
