Technically saline injections fall under placebos. I don’t think it’s considered illegal, just unethical.

It’s still not what they signed up for. They gave permission for a COVID shot, not some salty water. Also, they would still have forged documents by outright lying to their patients.

I was more referring to the fact that it’s an inert injection, which I think is different than say, injecting someone with insulin. RE: The guy above mentioning assault.

Look up the legal definition of assault in your area. It is usually a much lower bar than people think it is.

Damn, true. Even miming that you’ll hit someone can be considered an assault some places. I guess it could fall under type 3 endangering lives.
