The seven doctors form part of a group created back in August and which calls itself Doctors for the Truth. The group of doctors has repeatedly downplayed the severity of the new Coronavirus. A similar movement is reportedly also under investigation by the Society of Psychologists.

Those who dare to speak the truth gets punished.
This, fellow citizens is where the world has come to.
For those who follow the mainstream narrative, you may remain as sheep as it’s your prerogative.
For the rest of us the fight continues.
Darkness is on the cusp of a resounding loss.
The grand exposure of the global corona hoax is coming to it’s full circle.
The hijack of 2020 by nefarious beings is about to end.
2021 will be beautiful !

Punish the none-believers.

Fascism....... who said that.?

Germany has dozens, maybe hundreds of these doctors questioning this mess. Nobody has been disciplined.

In three months time C19 will be one year in duration. 12 million more people need to die to equal Smoking, Alcohol and Traffic related annual deaths, and they are legally accepted as our reality.

These dirty officials will get found out when the truth comes out and shows they overreacted to sell their rulers vaccine, make tons of money and take some of our freedoms away. Time will tell!

If you didn't believe it before, here's your proof, we no longer live in a democracy with free speech. Absolutely shameful to treat honourable people in this way.

I cannot applaud these groups enough who are brave enough to stand against this attack on humanity, science, medicine, law and the truth.

Please stand firm all of you, and know that you do have supporters out here who are very much appreciative of all you are doing.

One day, I hope anyway, if you keep fighting for us, we will be able to show our appreciation for you and forever be indebted to you.

Stay strong.

Goebbels was in favor of free speech for views he liked. So was Stalin.

You’re either in favor of free speech for everyone, or you're not in favour of free speech.

Well done to these doctors for standing up.

Support them, or there might not be anyone left to stand up when it is your turn.

Science should be promoting discourse and argumentation. This is scary!

Let the true science speak

This is wrong and scary. We all need more and better information and no official truth can be flawless when information for everyone is simply limited. Censorship will make this pandemic even scarier and more uncertain. Censorship is evil and it is hard to trust evil officials.
