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.

There may be a downside to free speech in that people can share all sorts of crazy ideas and even present them as facts. But I’d much rather face this risk than the rich, powerful, and influential of the world dictating what speech is allowed.

This article cites some crazy ideas, such as vaccines magnetizing people so that keys will stick to their foreheads. That’s nuts.

But reasonable opinions are also treated with equal contempt, such as the protocols for Covid at hospitals killing people. They are, and they have.

If the Polio vaccine worked like the Covid vaccines, almost everyone who posts here would have been stricken with polio.

Honestly, you should be out front and representing people.

You civil conversation and well put phrases are welcomed in this type of arena.

Big Pharm has thousands that invest and thousands that make or lose with them

Oh, it's everyone's fault. Then I guess that makes it OK to cause illness and death in tens of thousands of people. Society at large is causing the misery with their greedy investments in 401Ks - it's not the top brass or the boardroom's fault.

In fact, they are the saints in this fiasco, because their companies will be supplying medicines to treat all these side effects, G d bless them. And we'll be all the happier because our 401Ks will benefit from their huge profits. (Although the bonuses to the company elite will cut into that profit - just a teensy little bit).

I did not see any mention of Drs. Malone, McCullough, Kory, Marek, or Zelenko...

Wonder why?

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

You're kidding, right chemical warfare boi?

I bet they'd make even huger profits if they played the covid hoax game. There's tons of government tax payer money to be had that way.

And it might be more profitable to not have your license and practice threatened by the vax rabbit establishment.

Dogway, when will you grow tired of the lies you tell supporting medical tyranny and the evil, evil vax? It's almost as bad as your life long support for chemical weapons.

You are a walking, talking crime against humanity.

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.

But the thing is, vax shill, you can't compare this chemical compound with the vaccines of the past. And we ain't your daddy's 'anti-vaxxer', as much as you would like to paint us thusly.

See, those things you talk about are actual vaccines. This is a whole 'nother kettle of poison. And if you do your research, you will find that us 'anti-covid fake vaxxers' were never 'anti-vax' ever before. But you go on trying to fold us into that 'discredited' movement. The derp work to make that movement seem kooky has already been done.

You are a clownish cliche, Dogway. Your rhetoric seems like it was focus grouped in a derp state conference room for dissemination on the internet. You are maybe the most nasty and transparent government vax shill of them all on FreeRepublic.com.

The good news is, you have stiff competition just to make it interesting. Fauci says, 'keep up the good work'.

Not all misinformation is claiming Covid is a hoax (which is a disgrace to the deceased).

Wait. Aren't you the guy that mocks the families of the vaxxed dead as hoaxsters, liars, and kooks? And aren't you the male nurse vaxtard that laughs as ivermectin as 'horse paste' despite the lives it has and could have saved? And Aren't you the guy that pushes the derp state government agenda of the entire covid/vax hoax, making YOU responsible for untold numbers of death?

The sad truth is, vaxo, you people have blood on your hands and future generations will shake their heads in disgust at how so many people were responsible for and taken in by this preventable tragedy and the human suffering that goes along with it.

I would say you should be ashamed, but there is no shame in you. Nor is there truth.

DC logic:

Someone made a claim that “the shots magnetize the human body”
DC says that that someone is “anti-vaxx”, and says that their statement is false.
Therefore all “anti-vaxx” claims are false.

Fauci is an idiot, Anti-Trump, Media Whore. I don’t even the Left listen to him any longer.

Funny. You still seek to distance yourself from Fauci to maintain your 'conservative street cred' on this website. But at the same time, you toe the Fauci line in it's entirety. You, and the other vaxtards, all play from the same song sheet in that.

You people also claim you are against 'vax mandates' while EVERYTHING you preach supports and justifies the call for mandates. You are Fauci's biggest supporters.

Sorry, vaxtard, but nobody's buying what you're selling. You and your coven are NOT freedom loving patriots. You are an enemy of the people and should be treated as such. And your ignorance will not be your sheild.

I could make a list that include waffles and say it had 27 studies with 300 test subjects.

You could use your fatbody as evidence.

There are a few Doctors here on FR that work in the field with Covid patients even. They are sometimes referred to as quacks, murderers, shills, fake, liars, employees of any number of organizations like the CDC, Fauci, China, Pfizer, Moderna.

But they're mostly just government apparatchiks and slave to socialized, top down medicine. There's not a free-thinking bone in their quack bodies.

Same as you.

Ever Intubated anyone? Ever maintain a vent? Ever shoot drugs down an ET Tube?

I never jumped off a cliff or lit myself on fire to know that its bad either.

What exactly does that have to do with anything, Chase? There you go again pretending that your male nurse experience gives you some type of credibility and special knowledge.

But I guess its okay, you don't 'claim to be a doctor'.

So, according to your vast medical experience a vaccine must be 100% effective in preventing illnesses? If 100% effectiveness is the standard, then there are no vaccines since no vaccine is 100% effective.

It would be nice if they didn't kill people. We can start there. We already know they don't work.

I’m saying it isnt true that these Doctors in question are risking anything, so we can (dispense?) with that Honorable excuse.

And what you're saying is a lie, but what's new about that?

I had a long talk (for a doctor’s office visit) with my doctor. I asked her about that vax when it was first introduced, telling her that 1) it wasn’t a ‘vaccine,’ and 2) I was uneasy with getting one because of my medical profile.

She agreed. “It isn’t a vaccine, and I’m a bit of an outlier on the subject and treatment (e.g., the party line on treatment).” She also told me that she agreed about my profile and that I probably shouldn’t get the ‘vaccination.’ She has never wavered from that.
