New California Law to Punish Doctors for
‘Covid Misinformation Conduct’

Original Article

Posted By: Harlowe, 1/4/2023 2:09:53 PM

When seeing a doctor in California now, it is important to understand that you are now visiting a servant of some politicians, not an evidence-based medical professional, a doctor posted on Twitter. Effective January 1, 2023, Assembly Bill 2098 authored by Assemblyman Evan Low (D-Campbell), and signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom, is to circumvent due process against doctors over “Covid misinformation conduct.” AB 2098 will punish physicians and surgeons for “unprofessional conduct” for advocating for the potential benefits of early treatment with off-label drugs, or those who dare to ask questions about COVID vaccine safety.

Comments:

This Bill threatens the doctor-patient communication relationship by preventing a physician from providing honest information believed necessary for a patient to make personal informed medical decisions due to the risk of the physician losing a medical license.

The medical profession has totally failed to debunk any of the counterfactual, motivated nonsense spouted by antivaxxers. I wonder why not? And now we need legislation to regulate speech? Sigh!

Maybe drs should take an oath to practice ethical standards. Which I think includes telling the patient the truth, and doing no harm, no matter who orders a dr to do otherwise! We could call it the Hippocratic Oath.

Does the law detail specifically what is "misinformation conduct"? Considering what's been released in the "Twitter files", we can now see the gov't agencies pressuring Twitter to restrict certain people and comments. So, who will determine what is actually misinformation? After all, isn't the CDC now saying Ivermectin is okay for COVID treatment, and even now stating they never said not to use it?

A rather low law by Mr. low who is not the highest in the brain department to begin with. I guess, being Chinese he wants to shove Chinese products down our throats rather than using medication that is inexpensive and works and is not produced in China. BTW, what does Mr. Low know about medicine anyway since he did not study anything in that area!?

Physician patient communications are federally protected by HIPAA. Unclear to me how any actual unprofessional conduct can ever be proven. It's more theater.

And where was the AMA during Covid? Thats right......demanding an end to disinformation. Defined as anything that contradicts the prevailing dogma. Congratulations!!! With their willing participation in censoring speech, the precedent has been set. Censoring unfavorable speech will get easier and easier, happen more frequently, and what's labeled disinformation will change day to day depending on who's in power this week. I swear, the higher a person's IQ, the lower their common sense. The greatest collection of idiots that I've ever had to deal with was at the University of New York School of Medicine. Oh, and then the collection of degreed Doctors of Philosophy employees. You DO NOT want these idiots in charge of anything. Not if you actually want to get something done and have it work...............

And who decides what is misinformation? The Ministry of Truth? Like a certain bakery, if you want to get rid of a doctor you don't agree with, send in a patient with questions about covid, and then report him to the Ministry of Truth.

Lying to the base is a red line for me, and that’s what five of my closest colleagues are doing when they claim a consensus House Speaker candidate will emerge as they oppose Kevin McCarthy.

A stunning pre-print study by the Cleveland Clinic published Monday at medRxiv shows that MRNA vaccines raise the risk of contracting COVID-19 and that each MRNA vaccine booster increases the risk of contracting COVID-19, while those who have not received any MRNA vaccine have the lowest risk of contracting COVID-19. While the increased risk was relatively minimal, the result is the opposite of how the vaccines have been sold and mandated by government authorities. The highest risk was for those who received more than three vaccines.(Snip)ABSTRACT: Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a bivalent COVID-19 vaccine protects against COVID-19.

Americans are obliged to help bring more foreigners into their American society, White House spokesman John Kirby told reporters in a briefing ahead of President Joe Biden’s meeting with Mexico’s president on Monday and Tuesday. “You can’t forget that … we do, as a nation of immigrants, have an obligation to provide better tools and pathways for them to come in,” Kirby told reporters in the White House. The “Nation of Immigrants” narrative was invented in the 1950s by advocates for more migration. Biden and his deputies are pushing that claim to justify their importation of more illegal migrants above the limits set by Congress.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is set to open public comment on the dangers of gas stoves sometime this winter.

This is not to be confused with humorous “nicknames” — the most clever of which I enjoy, and have coined a few — but rather attempting to paint an adversary into a particular corner defined by you. Third-party “you,” that is. And of course, the most popular label by far among certain factions of the Republican Party is “RINO.” The definition of “RINO” — Republican in Name Only — not only used to be easy to understand; it was easy to identify Republicans who fit the RINO mold.
