Australia’s march toward medical authoritarianism continues.
Doctors are now being told they could face discipline for saying anything that contradicts “public health messaging,” even if what they are saying is “evidence-based.”
They may even face investigations for “authoring papers” that health authorities do not like. Unfortunately, I am not exaggerating.
Like all physicians, Australian doctors can face disciplinary investigations for medical errors or other problems.
In Australia, those investigations are called “notifications,” a nicely Orwellian euphemism. Ahpra, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency, oversees them.
On Feb. 28, a big Australian medical insurer warned physicians that to avoid Aphra notifications, they needed to “be very careful” not to contradict “public health messaging” in social media comments.
But the warning - although first mentioning social media - went even further.
It also warned against “authoring papers” that contradicted the authorities’ favored views.
SOURCE.
Today in Sunday School we heard of a track student in H.S. who collapsed with what was presumed to be a heart attack. A member of our class was present (in another state - watching the granddaughter's practice) when the young man suddenly collapsed. Saw the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteThese events were unheard of prior to COVID vaccines.
Yep.
ReplyDeleteWas there any media coverage?
Probably not, because these things have become so commonplace, and the government-media/academia complex messaging has been so totalitarian that everything bad is because of COVID and everything good is because of the vaccine.
