A pharmacist who was arrested last week for destroying over 500 doses of the Moderna coronavirus vaccine has told police that he believed the vaccine was capable of altering the human DNA and had thus kept the vials out of the refrigerators.
The pharmacist identified as Steven Brandenburg was an employee of Aurora Medical Center in Grafton, Wisconsin. He initially had spoiled 57 vials of the Moderna vaccine, later the number went up to 500 as the medical center found more doses left out of the refrigerator by him.
According to reports, Steven Brandenburg has told the court and police that he believed that the vaccines were unsafe. The district attorney also noted that the accused pharmacist was upset because of his ongoing divorce process.
Out of the vaccine doses that Bradenburg destroyed, nearly 60 had already been administered to people before the hospital officials found out that the medication had been left unrefrigerated long enough leading to the ineffectiveness of vaccine.
The police said in a statement that the pharmacist “knew the spoiled vaccinations would be useless and that people who received the vaccinations would think they had been vaccinated against the virus when in fact they were not”.
