From Reddit
As a community with an interest in providing the best resources to its members, the following wiki links are provided as historical reference until we can establish our own.
Milhoan isn’t just a pastor. He’s a pediatric cardiologist. That doesn’t mean he’s a vaccine expert, however, and critics have known that for years ever since Milhoan downplayed the safety of COVID shots during the pandemic and promoted the use of hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. He also falsely claimed the COVID vaccine caused cancer and miscarriages. He said having to carry around records of when you got your COVID shots was akin to “what happened when the Jews had to wear the yellow Star of David” during the Holocaust. During the worst months of the pandemic, Milhoan said that members of his Calvary Church of South Maui didn’t need to wear masks or practice social distancing.
He risked losing his medical license over all of this, but he and one of his allies were ultimately cleared of wrongdoing by a Hawaiian state agency in 2022. Still, that shouldn’t be mistaken as proof that they should be trusted on these matters.
Best I can do is letting him keep his medical license.
He's likely on RFK Jr's speed dial.
Genuinely is chilling to see the kind of public policy that can only create pain and lose triumphing in a system that's supposed to champion brutal logic-based business efficiency instead of hair-brained superstitious horseshit.
This might be more effective if he was also listed as a pediatrician rather than "just" a pastor. Pastors are not publicly accredited or licensed to practice (the 1st Amendment actually makes that impossible). It's more impactful to state that a licensed doctor is saying that.
They are optional, aren’t they?
Sure, and so is getting measles, or polio. Just ask North Carolina.
Yes, but it's horrible to normalize opting out for non medical reasons.
Absolutely. But it just seems like they’re complaining about shit that isn’t even true.
