New York – Two Long Island nurses were charged with forging Covid-19 vaccine cards and entering the false jab information in the state’s vax database.

The fake Covid vaccine card scheme pulled in more than $1.5 million, according the Suffolk County District Attorney.

Julie DeVuono, 49, the owner of Wild Child Pediatric Healthcare in Amityville, and her employee, Marissa Urraro, were both arrested and each charged with one count of forgery in the second degree.

In another twist to this story, Julie DeVuono’s husband, Derin DeVuono, is a New York PD officer so he is being investigated for his possible involvement in his wife’s scheme.
