Woman placed false QR check-in codes to spread anti-vax message
A Queensland woman has been charged after reportedly entering a country bar and displaying signs with fake QR codes that directed patrons to anti-vaccination sites.
Customers were left confused when they tried to register their attendance at the Wondai drinking hole in May and instead found themselves being warned about the dangers of vaccination programs.
