Hopefully we can find photo/video evidence of this ingenious attempt to fight back against the evil state.

Italian tries to dodge Covid jab using fake arm

Some may be accused of trying to dodge the system to get a vaccine certificate, but maybe none as resourceful at this Italian man.

He presented health workers in Biella, north-west Italy, with a fake arm made of silicon. But despite its realistic colour, nobody was fooled by the limb.

The man, in his 50s, was reported to local police on Thursday night, AFP news agency reports.

"The case borders on the ridiculous, if it were not for the fact we are talking about a gesture of enormous gravity," the head of the Piedmont regional government, Albert Cirio, said in a statement on Facebook.

Such an act was "unacceptable faced with the sacrifice that our entire community has paid during the pandemic, in terms of human lives, the social and economic cost", he added.

Hopefully we can find photo/video evidence of this ingenious attempt to fight back against the evil state.
