“When governments start practicing medicine, the story never ends well.”
Key Points About California's Newest Law
Dr. Governor knows best!
When I was in 4th grade, I became very ill with a high fever, sore throat, and a rash. My chain-smoking mother rushed me to our chain-smoking GP and he diagnosed me with Scarlet Fever. He said that he would have to report it to the health department and our entire family (except my mother, who had it when she was a child) would have to be quarantined for two weeks. My dad, an electrician, was the only bread-winner in our family: two weeks off would have meant a minor disaster. Dr. Marlboro agreed with my Virginia Slims mom that he would diagnose me with strep throat to avoid that. No one else in my family, or school got ill and I got a two-week vacay to read and watch Jeopardy, (the Art Fleming, daytime version) although I was really ill with the fever.
The reason I regale you with scenes from my childhood is because things that happened in Doctor’s offices used to be between the patient and the Doctor. Now, nothing is sacred and we MUST know when anyone has got the jab, hasn’t got the jab, tested positive for a condition, and the sanctity of the doctor/patient relationship has been illegally violated here in California—coming to a Democrat state near you!
Not to reinvent the wheel, but I would like to bring out some key points from an article from Children’s Health Defense about the newest law from Newsolini’s state.

Doctors Speak Out Against ‘Medical Totalitarianism’ as Newsom Signs Bill That Punishes Doctors for COVID ‘Misinformation’
California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday signed a bill that subjects the state’s doctors to discipline, including the suspension of their medical licenses, for sharing “misinformation” or “disinformation” about COVID-19 with their patients.
California Assembly Bill 2098 (AB 2098) defines “misinformation” as “false information that is contradicted by contemporary scientific consensus contrary to the standard of care” and “disinformation” as “misinformation that the licensee deliberately disseminated with malicious intent or an intent to mislead.”
Newsom said the law applies only to physicians’ speech with patients during discussions directly related to COVID-19 treatment.
Language in the bill points out that the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) has warned that physicians who spread misinformation or disinformation “risk losing their medical license, and … have a duty to provide their patients with accurate, science-based information.”
The FSMB, as previously reported by The Defender, takes money from Big Pharma and has a history of challenging and attacking non-pharmaceutical medical approaches used by integrative doctors as falling outside the “standard of care” as they define it.
This “standard of care” bullshit also reminds me of another vignette from my life:
After having a very uncomfortable experience giving birth to my oldest Casey (at Kaiser), and feeling that not one of the attending nurses, or doctors, listened to one thing I, or Casey’s father said, I decided to have my 2nd child at home.
We found an OB/GYN who supervised trained midwifes and had a glorious experience from beginning to end, and a very healthy daughter, to boot. Shortly after Carly was born, our OB/GYN started a huge struggle with his local medical board and lost his license to practice! Why? His C-section rate was BELOW the standard of the area: his was only about 3% and the rest of the area was between 25-30% Another example of how Western medicine made childbirth an unnatural event, and how medical boards only care about profit, not people (mothers/babies).
From the founder of CHD, Robert KENNEDY, Jr about this new Cali law:
“ (The law) fundamentally changes the sacred relationship between physician and patient that has existed since Hippocrates.”
“Under the new rubric, the doctor no longer serves the best interest of the patient but acts as an agent of state policy.
“History is replete with nightmarish examples of what happens when doctors stop healing and act instead to advance ‘the greater good.’ Governments have variously cited that phrase to justify euthanasia of the elderly, mental defectives, homosexuals and other ‘useless eaters’ and to enforce ‘one-child’ policies.
“When governments start practicing medicine, the story never ends well.”
My question is, how will the boards know about doctors spreading covid-”misinfo?” Only if their Karen patients report them? Or will every interaction now be monitored by the state? Ugh! While Fauci murdered many people by preventing early treatment, he will retire with a very healthy pension and with an elevated Covid fortune (seven-million, plus of ill-gotten gains during Covid). However, MORE good doctors will risk losing their livelihoods.
Rational minded folks are sure that the court will have to strike down this law, but, only time will tell!

“Under the new rubric, the doctor no longer serves the best interest of the patient but acts as an agent of state policy."
That's been the situation for a long time. This new rubric/law simply codifies the practice.
As usual, CA State Senator Pan is a co-author of this tyrannical California medical bill. He has destroyed health freedom, bill by bill, in California since 2015. He has not only terrified the people of California, but other states as well, since CA is the pHARMa bellwether state. Of course, he has a den of devils that co-author with him, but he is usually the leader of the pack. If you were ever so inclined to run for office again, Cindy, Senator Pan's seat would be the one to replace. You could actually not show up and be 1000% a greater public servant to Californians than the evil CA State Senator Pan.
