This I found and posted on the Threat Matrix thread, last night.
I was looking for the fake flu shots given by a muslim man about the same time (2003) in California, Nevada and Washington state.
He also had a 'school for the medicine arts' or something close to that.

Man gave unlicensed flu shots, state says
- Registered counselor was charging $45
for each shot

BELLEVUE -- A man with no medical license who gave $45 flu shots
here is under
investigation by the state Department of Health and the Bellevue
Police Department,
officials said Tuesday.
Officials and at least one parent are wondering if the shots actually
contained vaccine.
Shahid Sheikh gave flu shots in an office space at 1611 116th Ave.
N.E., but on
Tuesday the doors were locked and phone disconnected.
``He's not licensed as a doctor, nurse or medical assistant,'' state
Department of
Health spokesman Donn Moyer said. ``This person is a registered
counselor and that
category of provider has no authority to give injections.''
Moyer said the department has opened an investigation into Sheikh, a
registered
counselor since June, and asking questions of Dr. Clarence Niles, a
registered doctor
and surgeon since 1984 who might be affiliated with Sheikh.
No comment
Neither Sheikh nor Niles could be reached for comment Tuesday.
Moyer said the state is also investigating whether Sheikh
misrepresented the vaccine.
``If a person doesn't have a license, it calls everything about that
service into
question,'' Moyer said.
The state asked local police to seize the vaccine or stop the injections.
Some of Sheikh's clients were referred by other doctors. A Woodinville
pediatrician
referred Lori Miller of Redmond to Sheikh for her daughter, Ashleigh,
age 12.
Miller said she became suspicious speaking to Sheikh on the phone
before Ashleigh's
Friday appointment. She was told to have $45 in cash, to knock on a
door and wait in a
conference room. The appointment went well, though.
``He seemed like a nice guy, and did a good job with Ashleigh,'' Miller
said. The family
saw a TV report about Sheikh and got nervous.
``My concern is she has not been immunized for the flu.

Muslim????
Why would anyone trust any Muslim no matter what his degree is or what company he works for, manages or owns.
Here's more on the 2003 case:

Washington State Department of Health:
""In December 2003 the Counselor Programs charged counselor Shahid H. Sheikh (RC00047280) with unprofessional conduct. Sheikh allegedly represented himself as a doctor and provided flu vaccines to numerous clients for a fee.

""In February 2004 the Unlicensed Practice Program issued an order against Sahid Sheikh to permanently cease and desist from engaging in the conduct constituting practice as a medical doctor.

In February 2004 the Counselor Programs revoked his license to practice as a registered counselor (RC00047280).""
