Canadian doctor: Smear against Hydroxychloroquine drug in stopping COVID ‘needs to stop’
Ontario-based doctor Kulvinder Gill said bans on the drug have caused an ‘unprecedented violation of the doctor-patient relationship.’
(LifeSiteNews) – A Canadian doctor said the “smears against Hydroxychloroquine” as an effective treatment for COVID-19 “need to stop,” and she raised concerns that a physician could get into trouble for even talking about the drug.
In a Sky News Australia interview during an August 29 episode of “Outsiders,” Dr. Kulvinder Gill alleged that in most of North America, along with a large portion of European nations and Australia and New Zealand, a doctor prescribing Hydroxychloroquine could invite an investigation from their local doctors’ college.
“In some jurisdictions, they’re even starting to investigate doctors who are merely talking about it,” Gill said. “They’re being censored as being spreading dangerous information when they’re simply talking about evidence-based medication.”
Gill, who practices medicine in Brampton, Ontario, is the president and co-founder of Concerned Ontario Doctors, a grassroots, non-profit organization advocating for healthcare issues affecting frontline doctors.
In May, Gill said a now dead Canadian government deal with China to produce a coronavirus vaccine is a “dangerous endeavour” and that Canada should instead fund vaccine trials with allied nations.
She has been a very vocal advocate for Hydroxychloroquine as an effective treatment in fighting COVID-19. She has come under fire in Canada and abroad for her pro Hydroxychloroquine stance.
During the interview, Gill also talked about how the physician-patient relationship worldwide has seen a dangerous level of government intrusion due to the “extremely politicized” discussion around the prescription of Hydroxychloroquine to treat coronavirus.
“It’s absolutely appalling that we are seeing this unprecedented violation of the doctor-patient relationship where we have many of the developed countries around the world that are actually prohibiting doctors and sanctioning them if it is prescribed to their patients,” Gill said.
