Florida @GovRonDeSantis met with California physician Mark McDonald

“'There is no medical rationale for vaccinating children'...he also suggested both masks and vaccines 'don’t work.'"

The Medical Board of California said it will be "looking into it."

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Meets with Wild L.A. Vaccine Skeptic Despite Flooded Hospitals
The strange meeting came just hours before the CDC went in the opposite direction with new mask guidance—and as his state’s medical workers were back in hell.

The Medical Board of California is looking into Mark McDonald, anti-vaccine doctor who met with @GovRonDeSantis.

Here, McDonald tweeted about a “study” published by Epoch Times, a far-right propaganda site, as proof of his anti-vaccine theories.

Hours before federal officials on Tuesday issued new mask guidance to combat the surge of the Delta coronavirus variant across America, and even as his state’s hospitals were veering toward disaster, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis quietly met with anti-maskers.

Among the attendees at the Monday night meeting behind closed doors was at least one L.A.-based doctor who embraced conspiracist rhetoric about the same vaccines DeSantis has purported to champion as his only strategy to fight COVID-19.

The event, held at the state Capitol in Tallahassee, principally featured various COVID-19 masking skeptics. They included a Stanford professor with a history of opposing lockdowns, and a Tallahassee private school student who was “very concerned about masks being required this year.”

Still, the standout may have been Mark McDonald, a Los Angeles clinical psychiatrist.

Of course, some of those might actually give you correct recommendations, if only accidentally or coincidentally... Unlike this P.O.S.


[and before anyone objects that Oz is an actual medical doctor, I want to say he's a fucking woo-monger treading upon his formerly legit credentials and you'd get better medical advice from Doctor Watson or Doctor Strange, who are also supposedly medical doctors]

And perhaps a better question is why this shitbag still has a medical license!
