Pediatrician Paul Thomas MD dared to publish health outcomes comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated children. The Oregon Medical Board stole his medical license 5 days later.
But, they do stand on principle. The principle just happens to be who is funding their appalling activities, even writing their policies. It’s obvious those sitting on these boards are truly ignorance people, since anyone with intelligence wouldn’t allow themselves to be bribed for nothing more than fiat money and the supposed status of some made up pharma controlled pseudo organization.

Quite important piece: "Where does the FSMB derive its authority to regulate United States medical boards and, through its apparent international partner, the IAMRA, direct medical councils around the world to discipline doctors?" and "It is high time for a bona fide investigation of this agency...." Indeed, way overdue. We can hope that Dr Thomas forces discovery in his lawsuit.
medical science hasnt changed in 400 years, they still deny the obvious because it threatens the status quo and their 'superiority', yes theres pharma money too but its really psychological stupidity to reject new thinking and behave like sheep
humans really are stupid creatures and (most) doctors are amongst the worst offenders
i mean the mind set of these doctors, to reject anyone that doesnt follow their procedures, that comes up with other ideas, to dismiss and ridicule only to realise much much later that they were right. all they are interested in is maintaining their position as a 'better'
look up Ignaz Semmelweis and see what they did to him
Every day, Doctor Huber, it seems like some new horror comes to light.
The Oregon medical board's censure tactics are nothing new, but as the various boards are discredited by their own perfidy, my mind goes back to an incident that occurred four decades ago.
A clinical psychologist and dispensing psychiatrist shared a small office complex. They cross-referred, with the psychiatrist prescribing at the behest of the psychologist. A pattern emerged over time, one that revolved around Medi-Cal (California's version of Medicaid, health underwriting of last resort for the poor) fraudulent billing and over-prescribing of psychiatric medications.
It took several years, but both practitioners lost their licenses to practice in California.
My point is that these medical boards are now being discredited, and rightfully so, but they are important correctives to harmful physician activity.
The layers of damage to our nation's infrastructure just keep multiplying.
Yes, the boards historically have typically "circled the wagons,"
Yes, the boards have supported the unsupportable.
But deeply flawed as anything run by human beings usually are, they are important and necessary. By their recent actions, they have made serious contributions to the erosion of public confidence in the entire medical regulation infrastructure.
I'm tellin' ya, Colleen, it's getting more difficult to maintain one's emotional and intellectual equilibrium, every day. The hyperbole from both "sides" is understandable, but also presents a terribly attractive nuisance.
We can speculate that it's more a matter of seeing for the first time what has always existed, but the complexity arising from oversimplification fails to consider that there has been some good resulting from our regulatory apparatus. However small a signal that good may have been among the noise of general apathy and incompetence, it represented a mechanism for justice and harm reduction.
We allow that edifice to be dismantled, at our very great peril. I hope the suit against the Oregon board is successful, but the necessity for it is a tragedy and outrage beyond compare.
I agree with everything you wrote here. If boards would return to simply regulating and acting against those who violate First Do No Harm, then they will carry out what the public expects and has tasked them to do.
However, the more I listen to the Arizona naturopathic medical board's meetings, the more I hear doctors who have actually assaulted patients being dismissed one after another, while doctors who are perceived competitors of board members being nitpicked over chart note style and other frivolous harassment tactics, even for years on end. This utter abrogation of duty does not serve the public.
This looks more like a political regulation board rather than a professional regulation board.
From wikipedia:
The Oregon Medical Board is established and granted authority by Oregon Revised Statute 677, the Medical Practice Act.[1] The Board implements this authority through rules adopted under Oregon Administrative Rules chapter 847.[2]
The Board investigates complaints against licensees and takes disciplinary action when a violation of the Medical Practice Act occurs.
The 14 members of the Board are appointed by the Governor of Oregon and confirmed by the Oregon State Senate. Board members serve three-year terms and may be reappointed for one additional term."
This is a political problem and must be tackled at the political level. Who is contributing to the governor and who is contributing to the senate. Follow the money and follow the politics. Appeal to the people.
You all make me proud as an Oregonian, so glad to see this suit move forward. So so glad.
Wishing this good doctor get everything he is seeking. He has excellent data on his side.
I’ve been waiting far too long for these censorship lawsuits to commence. I hope to see many more filed.
Corruption makes me sick to my stomach. In my eyes there are few things worse than people who don't stand on principle.
But, they do stand on principle. The principle just happens to be who is funding their appalling activities, even writing their policies. It’s obvious those sitting on these boards are truly ignorance people, since anyone with intelligence wouldn’t allow themselves to be bribed for nothing more than fiat money and the supposed status of some made up pharma controlled pseudo organization.

It's my firm belief that deep inside their dark, little Grinch hearts they know they're doing wrong.
It’s hard to read all of these allegations without getting really upset.
But, thank you Colleen! It’s because of doctors like you with integrity fighting the good fight that we will win.
Very true! You have to have an iron will!
Know your enemy. Fed state med boards and the Pharma people behind them are psychopaths. See https://robertyoho.substack.com/p/149-testing-for-psychopathsthe-stuff#details to learn what they are doing and how they operate.
I respectfully suggest investigating the writings of those who opposed licensing all along.
A recent example https://mises.org/wire/occupational-licensing-unnecessary-evil
Professor Murray N. Rothbard made the case against licensing as far back as 1977: https://mises.org/wire/deception-behind-government-licensing-laws
All good points but here we are and our problem is now the next bad guy.
CHD has another article about this https://www.globalresearch.ca/subverting-medicine-role-federation-state-medical-boards/5790759

Could you explain what you mean by "hasn't changed in 400 years"?
I remember a time before gene-jabs. That seems like a change to me.

Fantastic article! Thank you, Dr. Thomas for holding the line! Awesome writing, Dr. Huber!
I wish other doctors would follow suit so there is a cavalcade effect and more of this retribution by the medical boards is exposed.
How can anyone look at any of this and not be horrified?
He should have demanded $95million (for that 95% con).
Hoping for a huge win for Dr Paul Thomas & the children & parents!

I'd like to know if the Arizona board is doing similar actions.
