An unlikely event dubbed the International Conference on Coronavirus and Rare Diseases scheduled for October in Vancouver has police and Canada's Anti-Fraud Centre concerned. The first guest speaker listed on the International Conference on Coronavirus and Rare Diseases website is Bernard J. Tyson, CEO of Kaiser Permanente. Several hours after an interview request, the Blader Group LLC sent a Facebook message saying the International Conference on Coronavirus and Rare Diseases had been cancelled. They know what they are doing," said Jeff Thomson, a senior RCMP intelligence analyst with the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. Since the beginning of March, there have been 2,770 reports of COVID-19 fraud in Canada, according to The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, involving 1,729 victims.
