A doctor who issued thousands of improper COVID-19 vaccine exemption certificates was sentenced to 9 months in jail after he pleaded guilty to four counts of access to a computer with criminal or dishonest intent.
Doctor Wong Ping-leung issued some 6,600 improper vaccine exemption papers between February and June in 2022, charging each certificate at prices ranging from 500 to 800 dollars.
Wong earned a minimum of 3 million dollars from this practice.
The judge believed Wong attracted clients seeking such certificates by granting them the maximum possible sick leave period of 180 days, adding that the doctor was tempted by greed.
