American Doctors Address COVID-19 Misinformation with SCOTUS Press Conference

*We embedded this video from Facebook when we first posted this item on July 27th. Within 24 hours Facebook had removed access to the video for everyone saying it was not true according to their “fact-checkers”.  We had no idea the fact-checkers at Facebook had medical degrees, but thought you should be able to see it. Click here or on the screenshot above to watch the press conference in its entirety on BitChute.

As a corollary to the above story, America’s Frontline Doctors reported on the 28th that their host provider had taken down their website. It’s strange, if their treatment protocols have no merit why fear the message? Where’s the willingness to exchange ideas and debate the pros and cons of a particular treatment? Many of those opposing the use of HCQ as a treatment for COVID seem to rely on Dr. Fauci’s more recent comments, but since NIH research appears to substantiate its efficacy why should those findings be questioned at this particular point in time?

New! July 31st. Dr. Simone Gold falls victim to a further act of censorship, reporting she was fired for appearing in the America’s Frontline Doctors press conference video.

HLSA Regular Stan Marett Interviewed by Temple Daily Telegram

We’re always proud to report on the successes of our regular attendees! A recent article by Janice Gibbs of the Temple Daily Telegram underscores the points made by MR3 President, Stan Marett, earlier this year at the Temple Health and Bioscience District’s pitch competition at its annual Med-Tech Symposium. MR3 took third place at the competition with a presentation on the importance of RPM (Remote Patient Monitoring) as an indispensable tool for physicians in maintaining the health of their patients. In addition to diabetes, there are a number of chronic diseases, including hypertension, congestive heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with simple physiologic indicators that can easily be monitored remotely on a daily basis. Changes in such indicators can generate alerts for physicians allowing them to react quickly to adverse conditions. The preventive benefits of routine daily monitoring are significant, a fact recognized by Medicare in the creation of new reimbursement codes for physicians who offer RPM services.
