Gagging through Medical Boards
WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 29, 2021) – The Federation of State Medical Boards’ Board of Directors released thefollowing statement:“Physicians who generate and spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation are risking disciplinary
action by state medical boards, including the suspension or revocation of their medical license. Due to their
specialized knowledge and training, licensed physicians possess a high degree of public trust and therefore have apowerful platform in society, whether they recognize it or not. They also have an ethical and professional
responsibility to practice medicine in the best interests of their patients and must share information that is factual,scientifically grounded and consensus-driven for the betterment of public health. Spreading inaccurate COVID-19
vaccine information contradicts that responsibility, threatens to further erode public trust in the medical profession
and puts all patients at risk.”
Medical Boards Threaten Doctors Spreading COVID Misinformation With Decertification (newsweek.com)"We also want all physicians certified by our Boards to know that such unethical or unprofessional conduct may
prompt their respective Board to take action that could put their certification at risk," the joint statement read.
"Spreading misinformation or falsehoods to the public during a time of a public health emergency goes against
everything our Boards and our community of board-certified physicians stand for.""The evidence that we have safe, effective and widely available vaccines against COVID-19 is overwhelming," itcontinued. "We are particularly concerned about physicians who use their authority to denigrate vaccination at atime when vaccines continue to demonstrate excellent effectiveness against severe illness, hospitalization anddeath."
Gagging through Social MediaNew York City Health Department commissioner Dr. David Chokshi wrote a letter to Facebook CEO Mark
Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey urging that the so-called “dirty dozen” social media posters who areallegedly responsible for 65% of all vaccine misinformation be kicked off of social media.
Even the White House has chimed in on whether or not people should be kicked off of social media. Press SecretaryPsaki says that if you have been banned from any social media platform for spreading misinformation, you should
be banned from all of them. That is despite the fact that such coordination between Big Tech companies would
surely trigger antitrust legal action since the companies would be acting as a cartel.
However, the government should not be trying to work around the First Amendment by outsourcing censorship toprivate companies.

In such an environment, where every doctor is threatened not just with loss of a job, but loss of the right to practice
ANYWHERE, is it any wonder that most have chosen to remain silent. In addition, doctors and hospitals received
large sums of money for following the party line. It was a case of “plata o plomo” – a formula used successfully bycartels to pull in an entire society.
But even under such threats and bribes, many thousands of doctors have spoken out and chosen to lose their jobs
and careers rather than comply. The lives of all of our children are at stake…the price of silence is just too great.
