Authorities in Germany Start Enforcing Actions Against Physicians Resistant to Administer Covid Vaccines
=========================================================================================
In a recent turn of events, Dr. Heidi Göldner, a German doctor, was fined 2,500 euros for warning her patients about the potential dangers of Covid-19 mRNA injections. This decision, made by the Hessen Medical Association, has sparked controversy and raised questions about freedom of speech in the medical field.
Dr. Göldner, who posted her warning in her practice in the fall of 2021, defended her stance by citing reports of sudden deaths and injuries linked to the Covid shots. She reiterated that her Christian faith and her oath as a doctor, to do no harm, prompted her to issue the warning.
The court's decision has left Dr. Göldner "stunned" and expressing disappointment with the Hessen Medical Association. However, it's important to note that German authorities have generally upheld Covid-19 vaccination policies but have not officially sanctioned doctors who refuse to administer them or who publicly warn of potential dangers.
The government's approach has involved public health measures and advisory bodies like the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO) that provide scientific guidance supporting vaccination. Disputes over mandates and measures have largely occurred through legal and legislative channels rather than direct repression of medical professionals' opinions.
The controversy surrounding Dr. Göldner's case is not isolated. Former CDC director Robert Redfield called the Covid shots "toxic" and stated that they should never have been mandated. Meanwhile, a large-scale study published in the prestigious medical journal BMJ Public Health found a "higher than expected" increase in neurological and heart problems following the jabs.
Additionally, a data analysis by the BMJ Public Health covering 47 countries, mainly in Europe and North America, found high excess death rates for three continuous years since the Covid-19 outbreak. The analysis attributed these deaths to Covid shots and other containment measures like lockdowns.
The public outcry over Dr. Göldner's fine was evident in a demonstration of solidarity held on August 17 in front of Wetzlar Cathedral. As the debate continues, it raises important questions about the balance between public health and individual freedoms, particularly for medical professionals.

- The controversy over Dr. Göldner's fine, along with statements from figures like former CDC director Robert Redfield and evidence from studies published in prestigious medical journals, has ignited debates about the potential dangers of Covid-19 mRNA injections within the broader health-and-wellness community.
- As the discussions around vaccine safety continue, there is an increasing focus on research and scientific articles addressing medical-conditions associated with the Covid shots, with many questioning the truth of the science presented by advisory bodies like the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO).
- The growing skepticism towards Covid-19 vaccination policies and the suppression of alternative viewpoints has sparked concerns about freedom of speech and individual freedoms within the medical community, paralleling issues in the political sphere.
- Interestingly, general-news outlets have reported on instances of medical professionals being fined or sanctioned for voicing concerns about the Covid shots, shedding light on the potential silencing of dissenting opinions within the field of health.
- As the debate on the role of medical professionals in liberal democracies unfolds, the public finds themselves grappling with questions about the influence of politics on medical decisions, as well as the tension between the pursuit of health and the protection of free speech.
