Top Medical Licensure Board Creates Misinformation Policy — Because What Could Go Wrong With A Science Hive Mind?
The Federalist ^ | May 11, 2022 | Kylee Zempel

Anyone claiming to be a champion of science but quick to flag new evidence as ‘misinformation’ is no scientist at all.

The Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), an authority on medical licensure and the discipline in the United States, recently passed a policy on medical misinformation and disinformation that will guide state medical boards and the health care workers they license and could even “become state law.” What could possibly go wrong?

Like the other obsessive “misinformation” pushes — from Silicon Valley to CNN’s Brian Stelter to the White House — this one once again uses the Covid rationale to legitimize it.

“More than 2 years into this pandemic, the largest threat next to the spread of the virus itself is the spread of disinformation and misinformation,” claimed FSMB’s President and CEO Humayun Chaudhry.

Ah yes, on the list of biggest threats, so-called “misinformation” is right up there next to a virus that reportedly contributed to the deaths of almost 1 million people in our country alone. To tackle this allegedly deadly misinformation, this premier medical licensure board is advising against exemptions for vaccines and “other preventative measures” (read: mask-wearing) and calling on each state board to adopt policies for their licensees’ conduct related to what’s been deemed dis- and misinformation.

In other words, the FSMB is setting up an ideological infrastructure for disciplining physicians who don’t follow the so-called scientific consensus on medical causes, treatment, prescriptions, or advice. It’s reminiscent of the way hospitals treated the hard-working nurses and doctors who looked at the available evidence on the Covid shot and opted not to take it, firing them en masse during what was already a staffing crisis, to the detriment of ailing patients.

This heavy-handed ideological crackdown by the FSMB is an affront not only to science generally but also to everything we’ve learned so far during the Wuhan virus. How many times did Americans hear, after their Covid posts had already been nuked from Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, that “the science has changed”? The “trust the experts” refrain from health bureaucrats, the medical establishment, and the media became an echo of “whoopsies” as The Science was proved wrong time and time again.

Remember when we learned that Clorox wiping our groceries and quarantining our library books was all a bunch of bunk because, actually, this airborne virus isn’t transmitted on surfaces? A similar switcheroo happened with almost every single piece of pandemic “consensus.”

For instance, after two years of masking, health experts finally admitted that covering our faces in fabric actually doesn’t stop the spread. After thousands of Americans lost their jobs for refusing to inject an experimental vaccine into their veins, we learned that the real misinformation was coming from the talking heads including the president who said the virus would keep us from getting Covid and spreading it, neither of which was true. And despite health experts telling us lockdowns were worth the risk, the shutdowns’ failure to protect Americans while bankrupting them exposed that short-sighted scientific evaluation as a lie too.

THE biggest danger was the Boards and Pharmacies
and government STOPPING doctors from prescribing
therapeutics, preventatives, and cures.

THEY should pay with their jobs, their homes,
their pensions, and their liberty.

Real science is the only thing that should replace disproven old science.

Just another sub-committee of Biden’s Ministry of Truth.

” The guidance, written by FSMB’s Ethics and Professionalism Committee, provides recommendations both for state medical boards when drafting their own policies, and for licensees regarding best practices and “clarifies the board expectations regarding the dissemination of misinformation and disinformation by licensees.” The guidance also urges caution around off-label prescribing.”

Does it also include the “science” of boys becoming Girls?

History may not repeat, but it does rhyme. I've read this book:

The Nazi Doctors: Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide

What the Federalist author is describing is enforcement of political orthodoxy via coercion. The licensing boards could end up making themselves irrelevant, except by at the point of a gun.

“Real science is the only thing that should replace disproven old science.”

You are so right. Real science is just one thing. It is an agenda to control the sheep, it is votes. I know of nothing that is 100% to include life or death depending on who you ask and how much power and money they get from their retort.

I’m reminded of the guy that built a building on loan. He then took in people’s money paying them a partial amount of the interest he gained from loaning it out to others so they could do what they wished. So starting with nothing, he lived on future money until the payments from the people started coming in. Then he invested in whatever he wanted and made money from his investments. That’s our banking/credit union industry. Start with nothing and make the public pay for everything. Sounds like Amway or Shaklee doesn’t it. Only difference is that the bank is making more, faster, than they’re interest is paying out. And as they get the feds behind them, they are guaranteed results.

The feds doing the same thing and have been doing it for a number of generations. They earmark funds, then borrow from it for another warm fuzzy, then never pay it back as they just borrow from another warm fuzzy to cover costs. It is the feds answer to free market.

Perfect. Take action against the quacks that offered up misinformation: two weeks to flatten the curve, Ivermectin is not for people, masks will stop the spread, lockdowns will stop the spread, big pharma faux vaccines will stop the pandemic, faux vaccines are safe and effective. Need to strip the medical licenses from those quacks and publicly mock and humiliate them.

This FSMB is a non profit organization, has no real power. They don’t license doctors.

“President and CEO Humayun Chaudhry”

I think I found the problem; the damned org is headed up by an adherent to godless eastern philosophies. Even a western atheist would be better.
