This doctor said vaccines magnetize people. Ohio suspended her medical license.
Sherri Tenpenny is no longer a licensed physician after airing fringe comments and ducking investigators.

What's funny is that magnetizing people is actually a good thing and can help cure mental illnesses like depression.
Yeah, but I think she meant it makes people magnetic somehow… as if that is a real thing a vaccine could do.
I know, she was claiming people had metal objects sticking to their bodies as an adverse vaccine reaction. This is a common magic trick any of us could do using a combination of sticky/clammy skin and an altered center of gravity. I was just pointing out that magnetic fields are used therapeutically and don't have a high degree of associated risk, making her claims that much more absurd.
It’s weird though - this was something grifters where making like unhinged TikToks about during the pandemic. Like some straight up Uri Geller shit.
Is she trying to pull the same grift? Or was she duped?
It’s not a stretch to think that someone who doesn’t comprehend how ferromagnetism works would maybe not have the capacity to see through the sea of propaganda. It it is kind of scary though that she is (was) a practicing medical doctor.
(No one tell her about Mirror World 😅)
I wondered the same thing. It's relevant that she's a DO as opposed to MD. Not that DO automatically equals quack, but there does seem to be a higher degree of quackery among osteopathic physicians compared to MDs.
