Experts call for change after investigation reveals doctors spreading COVID-19 misinformation
Description
January 20, 2022
Experts are calling for transparency and change after Global News revealed doctors in Ontario and BC are spreading information about COVID-19 that contradicts public health advice… and some were alleged to be heading out falsified mask and vaccine exemptions. As Jamie Mauracher reports there is concern having Canadian physicians and surgeons as self-regulating professions is part of the problem.
