Doctors Stripped of Medical Certifications for Questioning Covid Shots

Prominent doctors have been stripped of their medical certifications by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) after they questioned the safety and efficacy of Covid mRNA shots.

Drs. Pierre Kory and Paul Marik had their certifications revoked last week following a two-year investigation.

Aside from raising concerns about Covid mRNA injections, the doctors had openly supported the use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as treatments for the virus.

In addition to Kory and Marik, another doctor also said her certification was revoked without her knowledge.

After their certifications were revoked, the corporate media used the ruling to attack the doctors, accusing them of spreading “misinformation.”

According to The Washington Post, the two physicians continued “to promote ivermectin, an anti-parasitic medication, as a treatment for Covid long after the medical community found it to be ineffective.”

However, despite the claims from the Post, multiple studies have found that the Nobel prize-winning “wonder drug” is effective in treating Covid and several other life-threatening diseases, including cancer.

Kory and Marik are co-founders of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC).

The FLCCC promotes alternative treatments for Covid.

Citing unnamed experts, the Post claimed the FLCCC “spread misinformation about the coronavirus pandemic.”

MedPageToday quoted an ABIM spokesperson, who said the organization “does not comment publicly on the reasons for the revocation of certification.”

However, in a summary of the ABIM’s decision, the organization stated that the doctors’ “conduct poses serious concerns for patient safety and undermines the trust that the public and the medical profession place in the meaning of ABIM board certification.”

In a press release, the FLCCC Alliance said it “categorically disagrees” with ABIM’s decision.

“We believe this decision represents a dangerous shift away from the foundational principles of medical discourse and scientific debate that have historically been the bedrock of medical education associations,” the press release states.

Marik told The Defender:

“The bottom line is we’re disappointed because we stand up for the truth. To censor science is to censor progress.

“Science is based on dialogue and people can have different points of view.

“That is the principle of science: it’s people having different points of view.

“We’ve never been in a situation before where physicians who have opposing points of view are silenced …

“It sets a really bad precedent that you can’t really challenge the status quo, and as we know, in medicine, there have been very dramatic changes based on changing understandings of science.”

In the FLCCC Alliance press release, Kory said, “This fight is about more than just our right to speak — it’s about protecting the future of healthcare.

“When doctors are silenced for questioning the prevailing narrative, we all lose.”

Kory and Marik participated in an ABIM hearing in May.

However, a third doctor, internist Dr. Meryl Nass, said her certification was revoked by the ABIM without her knowledge.

Nass, the founder of Door to Freedom, said she was blindsided by ABIM’s decision to revoke her license.

She said she only discovered that she had been punished when she searched for herself in the organization’s database of certified physicians.

Nass told The Defender:

“After the Maine Medical Board suspended my license illegally — even though none of my alleged transgressions met the statutory requirement for an immediate suspension — the board later found me guilty of things I had not done and continued the suspension …

“All of this with never a single patient complaint.

“Now I learn, by chance, that the ABIM has suspended me without ever informing me I was even under an investigation, which is illegal according to the ABIM’s process.”

Other prominent doctors have also faced similar issues with the ABIM over their Covid injections.

World-renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough also had his certification revoked in 2022, according to MedPageToday.

However, as of today, ABIM lists him as certified.

“The ABIM is violating principles of equal protection, due process, rules of evidence and has gone ex post facto to find reasons to attack qualified ABIM-certified doctors who innovated and saved lives early in the pandemic,” McCullough said.

The ABIM also revealed that the doctors’ positions on Covid mRNA infections played a role in the decision:

“[The doctors’] statements about the purported ineffectiveness and dangers of COVID-19 vaccines are false and inaccurate because they are unsupported by factual, scientifically grounded, and consensus-driven medical information,” the ABIM said.

“There is extensive factual, scientifically grounded, and consensus-driven medical information demonstrating that the COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective, and lead to better health outcomes.”

In response, McCullough said:

“ABIM never updated its members on important risks such as fatal vaccine adverse events, including myocarditis, nor failing theoretical efficacy necessitating boosters that skipped human testing altogether.

“Setting a new dark milestone, ABIM is decertifying highly qualified physicians for nonclinical reasons and ignoring the evidence for early therapeutics and COVID-19 vaccine safety.”

Nass warns that organizations such as the ABIM are engaging in “medical lawfare.”

“Creating crimes that do not exist, using procedures that do not exist, to try and silence people like me,” Nass said.

“What did I do wrong? I read the literature and told the truth about what it said, publicly.

“The Covid vaccines are very dangerous.

“They don’t prevent Covid.

“Drugs can effectively treat Covid.

“And I prescribed those drugs and helped hundreds of Maine citizens.

“That was my crime.”
