Pressure builds against doctors peddling false virus claims

They have decried COVID-19 as a hoax, promoted unproven treatments and pushed bogus claims about the vaccine, including that the shots magnetize the human body.

The purveyors of this misinformation are not shadowy figures operating in the dark corners of the internet. They are a small but vocal group of doctors practicing medicine in communities around the country. Now medical boards are under increasing pressure to act. Organizations that advocate for public health have called on them to take a harder line by disciplining the doctors, including potentially revoking their licenses. The push comes as the pandemic enters a second winter and deaths in the U.S. top 800,000.

At least a dozen regulatory boards in states such as Oregon, Rhode Island, Maine and Texas recently issued sanctions against some doctors, but many of the most prolific promoters of COVID-19 falsehoods still have unblemished medical licenses.

I thought the Anti-Vaccine Doctors were putting it all on the line…….sticking their necks out to save us from vaccines and Covid itself. Losing their licenses. Threats of arrest.

It appears that’s not true. Like everything from these people, nothing is ever true.

I think there are a lot of doctors who are using alternative treatments, but don’t say the disease is a hoax, or that te vaccine magnetizes people. After all, if the virus was a hoax, the doctor wouldn’t need to prescribe Ivermectin, or something else?

Organizations that advocate for public health

Many organizations advocating for public health, are not in the public health field, like the media and the democrats in Washington and in the White House.

So, who to believe? The lying media and the lying politicians, or the doctors out in the field who actually treat people and see the consequences of acting to advance political agendas?

Do your research and you’ll find many, if not all, of these ‘doctors’ are profiting from selling ‘fake cures’ and pushing misinformation. They are not ‘sticking their necks out’ for anyone but themselves.

BTW, do some more research on the history of opposition to vaccines and you’ll find these complaints about vaccines haven’t varied since the first vaccines in 1790. Now, they claim the vaccines are poison and will destroy your body, back then they claimed vaccines were made out of the blood of rats and bat feces and would turn you into a cow.

It’s about time these ‘doctors’ paid the price for needlessly exposing people to unnecessary illnesses and deaths.

Censor never censor lies—they only need to censor the truth.

The CDC admits the “vaccines” don’t actually prevent the illness, but your hoax-detector doesn’t care.

Very strange.

These ‘doctors’ are making huge profits on ‘consultations’ and those ivermectin prescriptions.

Who will punish Big Pharma for their lies?

These “fake doctors” you cite have no legal protections like Big Pharma.

Now where did the CDC admit that these vaccines don’t prevent illnesses?

The CDC has changed the definition of “vaccine” twice because the Fauci/China biological warfare virus vaccines don’t work as promised.

Isn’t that bait-and-switch?

Ownership of “Truth” is fast becoming the #1 issue in American life. We ceded it to experts for a long time, not realizing the pressures being put on those experts to warp reality in service of collectivist ends.
