Ohio Doctor's Medical License Reinstated After Controversial Vaccine Claims

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny regains her right to practice medicine in Ohio following a suspension for non-cooperation with a medical board investigation.

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny's medical license was restored by the Ohio State Medical Board after a suspension for failing to cooperate with an investigation into her COVID-19 vaccine claims.
Tenpenny had claimed that COVID-19 vaccines could make people magnetic and interface with cell towers, leading to approximately 350 complaints filed against her.
The medical board voted 7-2 to reinstate her license after she agreed to pay a $3,000 fine and promised future cooperation.
Tenpenny's controversial statements were made during a 2021 legislative session aimed at blocking vaccine and mask mandates.
Her reinstatement has sparked mixed reactions, reflecting ongoing debates over vaccine misinformation and medical professionalism.
