image for Doc who claimed COVID shots cause magnetism gets medical license back

An anti-vaccine doctor best known for losing her medical license after falsely claiming that COVID-19 vaccines cause people to become magnetic and "interface" with 5G towers, has had her medical license restored, according to local media reports.

"I'm sure you've seen the pictures all over the Internet of people who have had these shots and now they're magnetized," Tenpenny said in her viral testimony.

You can put spoons and forks all over and they can stick because now we think there is a metal piece to that.".

Her testimony was in support of a bill that would largely ban vaccine mandates in Ohio.

In August 2023, the board indefinitely suspended her medical license on procedural grounds for failing to comply with the investigation and issued a civil fine of $3,000.

The board voted to reinstate Tenpenny on April 10, and the reinstatement is effective upon processing the paperwork, the spokesperson said.

I'm thrilled to share that my medical license has been reinstated. »
