One of the doctors who spoke in the "White Coat Summit" press conference promoting hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19 has been fired after the video went viral and received media criticism. Dr. Simone Gold was fired a couple of days after the press conference by the "American Frontline Doctors."Dr. Gold specializes in emergency medicine. She graduated from The Chicago Medical School in 1989, meaning she has more than three decades of experience in the medical field.As an ER doctor, Dr. Gold has been treating COVID-19 patients since the pandemic started. In the press conference that got her fired, she claimed that she observed remarkable improvement in COVID-19 patients after administering hydroxychloroquine.The video by the American Frontline Doctors, a group founded by Dr. Gold, was posted by Breitbart News on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. In the video, Dr. Gold said, "We’re here because we feel as though the American people have not heard from all the expertise that’s out there, all across our country. We’re America’s Frontline Doctors, we’re here only to help American patients, and the American nation."The video went viral – it had more than 17 million views on Facebook alone. However, the video has since been removed by all social media platforms who call the doctors’ statements misinformation.Dr. Gold has for months been promoting the use of hydroxychloroquine and has been using it to treat patients but, after the most recent video went viral, an online campaign to get her fired was started.Dr. Gold took to Twitter to express her disappointment with Big Tech and mainstream Media for censoring their expertise on COVID-19 and hydroxychloroquine.The series of tweets started with:"THREAD: We organized a group of practicing physicians, many of whom have personally treated COVID-19 patients, and we spoke directly to the American people about our experience and understanding of the virus, and it’s treatment options."She then wrote in another tweet that Facebook and Twitter removed the video, the media spread falsehoods about the American Frontline Doctors, and their web host, Squarespace, removed their website.In another tweet, she asked:"Why are social media company employees with no medical degree or clinical experience censoring the perspectives of practicing physicians?"Why are journalists claiming hydroxychloroquine is ineffective when there are numerous studies showcasing its efficacy against COVID-19?"Dr. Gold has not commented much about her termination from employment, except for confirming the reports on a tweet she posted on August 2."After our press conference, I was defamed by the media, censored by social media companies, terminated from employment, and viciously attacked, all for advocating for the right of physicians to prescribe what they believe is best for their patients."(2) Senate candidate Dr. Manny Sethi blasts Facebook and Twitter for censoring doctorshttps://reclaimthenet.org/dr-manny-sethi-facebook-twitter-censorship/Issue: August 3, 2020 Posted 5:26 pmSenate candidate Dr. Manny Sethi: "It’s time for Facebook and Twitter to get out of our business"By Tom ParkerSethi blasted Facebook and Twitter for censoring doctors.If you're tired of cancel culture and censorship subscribe to Reclaim The Net. Republican Senate Candidate Dr. Manny Sethi has blasted Facebook and Twitter for censoring doctors who share their experiences using the drug hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for the coronavirus.During a Knoxville event, Manny said:"Hydroxychloroquine, now look, I’m a doctor, I’m a doctor. And I’ve looked at the science and we’re not sure. Now personally, I’ve seen it save a colleague of mine’s life; an orthopedic surgeon who was sick in the ICU, almost on a ventilator."So where does Facebook getting off freezing the accounts of doctors who are talking about this? Did that Mark Zuckerberg guy get an MD? Where’d ‘he go to med school?"It’s time for Facebook and Twitter to get out of our business. I’m a doctor."In a tweet, Manny added: "The idea that the media and Facebook and Twitter are censoring doctors because they hate the President is outrageous to me. They need to butt out of this conversation and let doctors do their work."The censorship of doctors that support hydroxychloroquine on social media has led to strong pushback against the tech giants with many questioning why social media companies are branding the advice of health professionals "coronavirus misinformation."Facebook’s censorship even extends to countries where hydroxychloroquine is among is among the most commonly prescribed drugs and has been "overall chosen as the most effective therapy amongst COVID-19 treaters."Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Google CEO Sundar Pichai were quizzed about their escalating censorship of doctors that promote hydroxychloroquine during a July 29 House Judiciary Committee hearing on antitrust law but both CEOs defended their censorship with Zuckerberg vowing to take posts down if they say hydroxychloroquine is a cure for COVID.Before the hearing, Facebook, Google, and Twitter had engaged in one of the biggest acts of Big Tech censorship to date by censoring a viral White Coat Summit press conference featuring several doctors supporting hydroxychloroquine as a treatment option for the coronavirus.The press conference generated tens of millions of views within the first few hours of being posted but was then scrubbed by Facebook, Google, and Twitter for violating their coronavirus misinformation rules.After the hearing, the censorship of doctors continued with Twitter temporarily locking the accounts of Dr. Stella Immanuel and top New York medical doctor David Samadi.Immanuel had appeared at the White Coat Summit and spoke positively about hydroxychloroquine as a coronavirus treatment option while Samadi had tweeted out praise for hydroxychloroquine.(3) Dr. Stella Immanuel prescribed HCQ to over 350 patients & did not lose even oneStella Immanuel is from Nigeria, where CQ & HCQ have long been used to fight Malaria. Doctors in the video stated that in countries where HCQ is widely used against Malaria, Covid-19 has not had much impact.https://www.facebook.com/AmericasFrontlineDoctors/America's Frontline Doctors3 August at 10:26 ·After our press conference, we were defamed by the media, censored by social media companies, terminated from employment, and viciously attacked, all for advocating for the right of physicians to prescribe what they believe is best for their patients.We are asking the public's support to grow our organization of physicians so that we can make an impactful statement and advocate for solutions that both protect the rights of Americans, while also dealing with the current COVID-19 pandemic.Link: https://fundly.com/america-s-frontline-doctorsvideo - Dr. Stella Immanuelhttps://www.facebook.com/AmericasFrontlineDoctors/videos/2189705894509189(4) "You don’t need masks, there is a cure: HCQ, zinc, and Zithromax (azithromycin)"Dr Bob Hamilton, Pediatrician at Sta Monica, Ca, says:- mortality rate of children is only 1/5 of 1%- no documented case of kids transmitting Covid-19 to adults- get kids back to schoolhttps://heavy.com/news/2020/07/dr-simone-gold/Dr. Simone Gold: America’s Frontline Doctors Founder Is a California PhysicianBy Jessica McBrideUpdated Jul 28, 2020 at 2:43pmDr. Simone Gold is the Los Angeles-based doctor who is leading a group called "America’s Frontline Doctors" that held a press conference on COVID-19 on July 27, sparking a controversial viral video that was removed from multiple social media platforms.CNN confirmed that the group "is led by Dr. Simone Gold, a Los Angeles-based emergency medicine specialist who has previously been featured on Fox News for her views that stay-at-home orders are harmful." CNBC described the group as "comprised of some doctors and some who are part of the anti-vaccination movement."The video was first published on the conservative Breitbart News platform. The doctors in the video are wearing white lab coats and are part of the organization calling itself "America’s Frontline Doctors." They held a press conference in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, and the video quickly went viral before it was removed by multiple social media platforms for what they labeled misinformation and false claims. Dr. Stella Immanuel is a Houston doctor whose comments at the press conference were widely shared.That Breitbart video from the doctors claiming that Hydroxychloroquine cures the coronavirus has been going crazy in anti-vax, anti-mask, reopen Facebook Groups today. Its at >20 mil views on FB. And that doesn't include all the private groups it's been spreading through. pic.twitter.com/QJ8ocMf3aM— Brandy Zadrozny (@BrandyZadrozny) July 28, 2020The video can still be viewed on Bitchute here. <https://www.bitchute.com/video/yFYsM0bMYBpR/>"We’re here because we feel as though the American people have not heard from all of the expertise that’s out there all across our country," Gold says, opening the press conference. "We’re America’s Frontline Doctors. We’re only here to help American patients and the American nation to heal. … Americans are riveted and captured by fear at the moment. We are not held down by the virus as much as we’re held down by the spider web of fear. That spider web is all around us." She adds, "This does not make sense. … We can manage the virus intelligently, carefully.""This virus has a cure, it’s called hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and Zithromax," a press conference participant says in the video. "You don’t need masks, there is a cure." These claims are contradicted by the government and other scientists and doctors.The video was first posted on Monday and by that evening had been removed by Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, CNN reported. "We’ve removed this video for sharing false information about cures and treatments for COVID-19," Facebook told CNN, adding that the platform is "showing messages in News Feed to people who have reacted to, commented on or shared harmful COVID-19-related misinformation that we have removed, connecting them to myths debunked by the WHO."Twitter then upped the ante by suspending the account of Donald Trump Jr. after the president’s son and the president himself shared the video.In June, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration revoked the emergency use of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, writing that the drugs were "unlikely to be effective in treating COVID-19 for the authorized uses in the EUA. Additionally, in light of ongoing serious cardiac adverse events and other serious side effects, the known and potential benefits of CQ and HCQ no longer outweigh the known and potential risks for the authorized use.""While additional clinical trials continue to evaluate the potential benefit of these drugs in treating or preventing COVID-19, we determined the emergency use authorization was no longer appropriate. This action was taken following a rigorous assessment by scientists in our Center for Drug Evaluation and Research," said Patrizia Cavazzoni, M.D., acting director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation, in an FDA news release.In July 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention called on Americans "to wear masks to prevent COVID-19 spread.""We are not defenseless against COVID-19," said CDC Director Dr. Robert R. Redfield in that news release. "Cloth face coverings are one of the most powerful weapons we have to slow and stop the spread of the virus – particularly when used universally within a community setting. All Americans have a responsibility to protect themselves, their families, and their communities." ...
