“You Must Do As We Say … Or Else!”

Hypothetically, let’s assume that you are a physician, and have been told, “you must prescribe this medicine, order this invasive test, or give this shot to all of your patients. There is no long term data as to the efficacy or to the safety of the med, the test, or the injection. However, you must do as we say because we know best!”

If you, as an experienced responsible practicing physician, did not think that the med, the shot, or the invasive test was in the best interests of your patient, you might resist … you might choose to follow the Hippocratic Oath and choose to do no harm.

The response from those that know best could be, “Doctor, if you do not do as we say, we will accuse you of “disseminating misinformation.”

“Vaccine hesitancy,” “vaccine misinformation,” and “denigrating the vaccine” are terms that have caused a lot of trouble for some physicians who have questioned the mainstream media, big pharma, big tech, and political narratives that the COVID vaccines are “safe and effective.”

The Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) apparently knows best. It  supports its member state medical licensing boards, and it issued a statement saying that providing misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine contradicts physicians’ ethical and professional responsibilities, and therefore may subject a physician to disciplinary actions, including suspension or revocation of their medical license

“Those who know best” typically comprise organizations such as 

the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM), the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM), and the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP),all of which support FSMB’s position when they said that they 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 statement reads.

In September last year, the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) issued a statement that threatened physicians who “provide misinformation” about the COVID-19 vaccines—without defining what “misinformation” entails. According to ABIM no physician is allowed to have an opinion separate from that of the Board of Medicine. In other words … “you must do as they say, or else!”

Probably, one of the first questions you might have would be … In which communist country did this occur? 

Actually it occurred repeatedly in the U.S. 

A recent 5/11/22  article in The Epoch Times documented the individual stories of four experienced physicians in the U.S. in different sub specialties who were railroaded  by “those that know best” because they each did what they thought was ethical and right. In future years I predict we will look back in disbelief at how these principled physicians were bullied. If this sort of reevaluation does not occur, God help us!
