DOJ drops charges against Utah doctor accused of falsifying Covid-19 vaccine records

UTAH, UNITED STATES, JUL 13 – Charges against Dr. Kirk Moore, accused of destroying $28,000 in COVID-19 vaccines and issuing nearly 2,000 fake vaccine cards, were dropped by Attorney General Pam Bondi.

  • Federal charges against Utah plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Kirk Moore Jr. for falsifying COVID-19 vaccination records were dropped on Saturday.
  • The dismissal followed an indictment in January 2023 accusing Moore and three co-defendants of destroying $28,000 worth of vaccines and issuing nearly 2,000 fake vaccine cards.
  • Prosecutors alleged the group administered saline shots to patients, including minors, while distributing fraudulent vaccination cards instead of real vaccines.
  • Attorney General Pam Bondi shared on social media that Dr. Moore provided his patients with options that the federal government did not offer and stated that he should not have had to face a lengthy prison sentence.
  • The charges' dismissal ended the trial amid praise from political figures, including Republican Senator Mike Lee and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, but some controversy remains over the case's handling.
