Anti Vaxxer’s questionable actions on TikTok
Jasmine’s rather questionable activities weren’t just limited to Instagram. A TikToker, who goes by the handle @tizzyent, recently exposed Jasmine for “spreading anti-vaccine sentiment” on her multiple accounts, suggest reports.
Apparently, her bio on the app read, “DM for religious exemption letters”. When the TikToker approached her as an employee of Walgreen, Jasmine told her about another woman she had hired to enter people into the New York Vaccine system, referring to Nadayza.
Although Jasmine and Nadayza have been caught in their act, many including the authorities are surprised as to how the ring survived for so long.
AntiVaxMomma banned from social media
Jasmine’s Instagram account was soon banned after her alleged fake vaccine card business came to light. Facebook even issued a statement after removing her account from the platform earlier in August.
In a statement, one Facebook spokesperson said: “We prohibit anyone from buying or selling fake – or even genuine – COVID-19 vaccine cards. We removed Ms. Clifford’s account at the beginning of August for breaking our rules, and we will review any other account that might be doing the same thing.”
