THREAD: If you're sharing or watching a video from "America's Frontline Doctors," please know this. Local doctors right here in Kansas City say there are EXTREMELY misleading claims in this video about masks, medicine, and schools. See the docs talk here: https://www.facebook.com/kuhospital/videos/329772985095263/

I also did some digging. Someone created the "America's Frontline Doctors" website just 12 days ago.

The main doctor who makes these claims about Hydroxychloroquine's effectiveness, Dr. Stella Immanuel, just got her medical license in Texas last year.

Stella Immanuel operates a clinic in a strip mall next to a ministry where she regularly preaches (address taken directly from her medical license). She has also claimed women get cysts and other pregnancy problems due to sex with demons. ( https://archive.fo/G7wtb ).

I am tracking down local docs who are talking about the misleading claims. "It was disappointing to see our colleagues nationally get up on the steps in DC and say stuff that’s just so far off," said The University of Kansas Health System Chief Medical Officer Dr. Steve Stites.

Dr. Stites talked about the use of Hydroxychloroquine
"We’re building the airplane while we fly it, and sometimes we figure the parts don’t fit, and that’s hydroxychloroquine," Stites said.

"It looked theoretically like it was going to work, we even initiated a study here, the HERO study, trying to look at the use of hydroxychloroquine for front line workers. The reality is, it hasn’t worked, despite everybody’s trying to postulate that it should," Stites said.

As for claims of students need to go back to school no matter what...
"A blanket statement, 'Every kid should go back to school without a mask' is a fool’s folly," Dr. Stites said.

Please see the video linked above in the thread for full context around these quotes. Please also do your research and don't share misinformation. @kmbc
