SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – AB 2098, recently signed into law by California Gov. Gavin Newsom, qualifies spreading COVID-19 “misinformation” as unprofessional conduct and makes it punishable as such.

Attorneys say AB 2098 is unconstitutional and a violation of 1st Amendment.

The parameters for misinformation regarding the pandemic are widely debated, with studies continuing to contradict one another well into society’s recovery from the global crisis — especially in relation to vaccines.

I wasn’t aware that doctors were out there combatting The Big Lie. Some, but a disgustingly small minority.

Our GP agrees with my assessments that the vax is more likely to do harm than good, masking is useless, and my wife's onset of Parkinson's is probably connected to her third booster a week and a half before the onset.

The state cannot take away a person’s livelihood as a physician based on the vague term - “misinformation.”

Amerika hasn't been a free country for decades.
