What Employers Can and Cannot Force Their Employees to Do In COVID Pandemic World

What Employers Can and Cannot Force Their Employees to Do In COVID Pandemic World

Comments 10 comments

I am getting many emails, VM’s comments from employees telling me they are being forced to get the Covid shot or tell their bosses things which the employee thinks violates their privacy rights, they feel they are being discriminated against for not having received the shot. That is a lot of ground, some of it is still unsettled because the shots are still not full FDA Licensed, and as you all know, the feds take the position that federal law…

Kelly Sutton’s Medical Board Case Goes to Hearing On June 14th

Kelly Sutton’s Medical Board Case Goes to Hearing On June 14th

Comments 6 comments

We are getting close to the hearing date of Kelly Sutton’s hearing on her writing 8 medical exemptions which were not in compliance with the ACIP guidelines. Given all my recent posts about the revocation of ME’s written by disciplined doctors, I don’t have to remind any of you what is at stake for the families who are holding and counting on ME’s written by Dr. Sutton. I started a GoGetFunding campaign a short time ago and I just posted…

Some further thoughts on the Upcoming Revocation of Medical Exemptions

Some further thoughts on the Upcoming Revocation of Medical Exemptions

Comments 26 comments

I have received some very astute comments in response to my recent post which discussed appealing the revocation of your child’s medical exemption due to the disciplinary action against the ME writing physicians. The information has caused me to rethink what I presented (and didn’t present, for reasons I don’t want to make public) and I want to share some concerns, and give some more details than I had not originally planned on discussing in public. The law seems to…

Is Anything Happening With California Schools Revoking Medical Exemptions from Disciplined Physicians? Yes, and it’s Hail Mary Time! (Updated with New Information

Is Anything Happening With California Schools Revoking Medical Exemptions from Disciplined Physicians? Yes, and it’s Hail Mary Time! (Updated with New Information

I have been asked about that. For what it’s worth, I have been receiving reports from parents that they are receiving letters from schools indicating that their child’s medical exemption is being revoked as of the coming school year based on the fact that the ME was written by a physician who has been disciplined by the Medical Board. I guess that the overwhelming majority of ME’s issued under SB 277 were issued by physicians who have already been disciplined…

The United States vs Your Own Stem Cells: Trial days Three and Four

The United States vs Your Own Stem Cells: Trial days Three and Four

Comments 5 comments

The FDA’s case against the California Stem Cell network went forward last Thursday and Friday for the third and fourth days. Yesterday, Monday was an off day. The trial resumes today at 8:30 PDT. Very briefly, (I hope because I have a lot on my plate today) here are my main observations: 1. The judge has already made up his mind about the case. In a sense that is an obvious implication of his decision denying the government summary judgment….

Although many, many of my posts lately have been about the vaccine issue, I view myself as a health care attorney who focuses on novel and unconventional treatments and technologies. The legal contexts may be different, i.e., medical board work, civil litigation, or federal criminal cases (FDA and health care insurance issues) but the overarching commonality is constant, unconventional health care and ensuring the broadest possible access to it. In my FDA-related work, that basically pits me against the government…

Some Quick Takes on the Second Day of the California Stem Cell Treatment Trial

Some Quick Takes on the Second Day of the California Stem Cell Treatment Trial

Comments 5 comments

While working yesterday, I had the zoom California stem cell trial playing sort of as background music. Here are some of my quick takeaways. 1. My strongest impression was of the Judge. As a lawyer who does trial work, he was wonderful to watch. He is very, very sharp, but he’s also very laconic. Lawyers object. He thinks about it for a second, then gives a short response, usually 1 word. I think he was on the money every time….

Where are we Really on the on the Adipose/Fat Stem Cell and other private Stem Cell Business

Where are we Really on the on the Adipose/Fat Stem Cell and other private Stem Cell Business

There have been recent reports about the FDA’s impending forced closure of the autologous adipose stem cell business because the three-year grace period (to come into compliance with the FDA’s view of the law) is expiring soon. (The three-year grace period was extended for six months because of the pandemic.) The big dog has dutifully reported the FDA’s pronouncement about the end of the adipose and other non-FDA compliant business model and he is (as he has often done in…

Pfizer Announces that it will Seek Full FDA Approval By the End of the Month, So guess what’s coming?

It is being reported that Pfizer will seek full FDA approval (a biological license) for its COVID vaccine by the end of the month. That’s surprising in terms of timing because it’s still only what, about one year since the first human subject received the shots. That is going to drive anyone with vaccine concerns nuts. But this isn’t a normal clinical trial process, far from it. I don’t know the actual numbers of people in the US who have…
