A physician-lawyer who has made headlines for participating
in a “White Coat Summit” in Washington, D.C., has had her op-ed published in
The Ohio Star.
Dr. Simone Gold had previously submitted her opinion
statement to USA Today, but they “deleted key phrases/paragraphs for their
print paper and then they refused to print it all online,” the Star says.
Gold begins her statement in the Star by pointing out “that
the disinformation about both Covid-19 and the Constitution has caused us to
turn a medical issue into a legal crisis.” She goes on to say that the “scientific
usefulness of a mask has been so aggressively overstated, and the foundational
importance of the Constitution has been so aggressively understated, that
we have normalized people screaming obscenities at each other while
hiking.”
July 27, 2020, Gold made a video with a group called
Frontline Doctors voicing their concerns about misinformation being spread on
the pandemic, particularly with the use of hydroxychloroquine as a treatment
for COVID-19. The video was quicky taken down from major social media. July 30,
2020, Gold told Tucker Carlson on Fox News that she’d been fired from her job
for appearing at the summit.
