This "fake Indian medical degrees" has been going on for literally at least a decade that I personally have followed. I'm VERY glad it's coming to light now, but it goes back far. As a matter of fact, before the purchasing of fake degrees to come to the USA (and the UK, etc) to work, the medical universities there were and are rife with cheating. While the 'student' is inside the building taking exams, their friends and family stand outside and hold up signs, climb the building to bring cheat sheets, etc. to the window and more. I saw the coverage on this probably 10-15 years ago. Now, they just buy the fake degrees outright and come work for the hospital and medical centers treating... you. Ponder that over your coffee.
According to Kayleigh McEnany on Fox News, Indian and Chinese companies have been manufacturing false diplomas for H-1B visa applicants, and those applicants have used the fake degrees to land high-skilled jobs in the United States. McEnany said, “One former official tells Newsweek that 90 percent of applications from India contain fraudulent documents or involve unqualified applicants. A finance force in India claims it has uncovered a network of universities that produce fake degrees, which were possibly used to obtain these high-skilled H-1B visas, including one school, which allegedly sold over 36,000 fake degrees. It costs as little as $1,400 for one of those.”
She added, “While these are supposed to be high-skilled employees, during almost all of Biden’s time in office, 83% got junior or entry-level positions. And now Texas is taking action — cracking down on those abusing the program.”
