Multiple incidents of people using counterfeit tests results to work around coronavirus restrictions laid out by various countries have been reported in recent weeks.

Last week, French police arrested six men and one woman who were selling falsified negative test results at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. All seven were charged with forgery, use of forgery and complicity in fraud.

The fake testing certificates showing a negative coronavirus diagnosis were allegedly going for about $180 to $360 a piece.

I find this highly amusing. I've been wondering if I'll ever be able to travel again, as I will refuse to get a vaccine.

Perhaps you should contact the guy who printed Obama’s birth certificate. He might be able to give you a discount on a forged health certificate.

Just tell him Barry sent you.

Why would you use counterfeit TESTS,when you could just get a counterfeit PAPER showing results?

Elon Musk recently tweeted that he took 4 CV19 tests in the same location on the same day. 2 were positive and 2 were negative.

This could be in all of our futures.

We’ve seen some steps towards this happening, such as how some businesses are now doing temperature checks when you visit an office.

The next step would be that you need to prove you have been tested and test negative for a disease. If this happens, it will likely extend not only to this Corona virus, but to a whole host of diseases. You will need to carry around your immunization records, to prove that you have had a flu shot, or whatever shot our government bureaucrats deem important at the time.

I heard someone talking about this on TV, and they said such requirements, if they happen, would be no more difficult to comply with than how we all carry our driver’s license when we drive a car. We’ll see how far they take this concept.

The fake tests are probably just as reliable as the real ones.

I’m waiting for the apps to give fake green screen on my smart phone.

Not quite that simple, but, just wait.
