NBA Hall of Famer Sues Washington State Medical Board for Silencing Dissent During COVID-19 Pandemic
NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton is hoping to score some points against those who used the COVID-19 pandemic to silence health professionals who expressed dissenting views about the coronavirus and the vaccines.
Stockon, along with several doctors, has filed a lawsuit against the Washington State Office of Attorney General and the state’s medical commission. The legal action alleges that these agencies unlawfully stifled the free speech of medical professionals who refused to toe the government line on mask and vaccine mandates, as well as other topics related to the pandemic.
“The only thing we’re interested in is the First Amendmet issue,” questioning the constitutionality of the medical board to sanction doctors for having different views on the virus.
