COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – A Cleveland doctor who falsely claimed coronavirus vaccines cause magnetism is under investigation by the state medical board.
Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, an osteopathic physician, is at risk of losing her license after she ignored investigators and failed to comply with a subpoena issued by the 12-member medical board that’s tasked with overseeing Ohio doctors and their licenses, according to a citation issued against her last month.
This nurse was inspired by Tenpenny, any questions?
A long-time vaccination opponent who received her medical license in 1984, Tenpenny made national headlines in June 2021 for erroneously asserting to state lawmakers that 5G cell towers can “interface” with the vaccine to magnetize its recipients. “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 told the Ohio House Health Committee. “They can put a key on their forehead. It sticks. They can put spoons and forks all over them, and they can stick.”
