Alaska doctors who prescribe vitamin therapies and early treatment for Covid such as ivermectin are facing a backlash from a group of angry physicians who claim there is no place for doctors who express concern about Covid shots or offer alternative ways of treating the virus that do not involve the experimental injections.

Dr. Ilona Farr speaks at the Oct. 30 Early Treatment Summit for Covid in Anchorage.

Controversy erupted last month when a high-powered group of globally recognized scientists gathered in Anchorage with local doctors to warn Alaskans against vaccinating children or those who have recovered from previous Covid infections.

Titled, “The Early Treatment Summit for Covid,” the event included a renowned panel of scientists who shared advice with local health care workers on early treatment options, including use of ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine and combinations of vitamins and drugs that have proven successful. The conference, which included some 1,200 attendees, also challenged Alaskans to band together in resisting vaccine mandates and closures of schools, businesses and social institutions.

Now, an angry group of Alaska doctors is asking the Alaska Medical Board – which oversees medical licenses – to investigate local physicians who contributed to the conference and its message.

According to a Nov. 14 article in the Anchorage Daily News, some 100 Alaska physicians signed an online letter urging the Medical Board to investigate Alaska doctors who recommend the use what they call “unproven COVID-19 treatments.”

“We are writing out of concern that medical misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine and treatment is being spread in Alaska, including by physicians,” the ADN article quotes from a letter drafted by Anchorage psychiatrist Merijeanne Moore. “We hope that you will investigate this seriously, as the spread of misinformation has been identified as a threat to public health by the US Surgeon General, the Alaska Chief Medical Officer, and three medical specialty boards.”

Farr and her colleagues who provided information on preventive vitamin therapy and early treatment, to include the use of Ivermectin and Chloroquine, are under a direct attack by the medical establishment

Moore told the ADN that she penned the letter due to her concerns about the early treatment summit held on Oct. 30 at Change Point Church. Moore plans to submit her letter this week, ahead of the Medical Board’s Nov. 19 meeting.

The two most prominent Alaska doctors featured at the early treatment summit were family practitioner Dr. Ilona Farr and Hillside Family Medicine co-founder Dr. John Nolte. Both are strong advocates for early treatment options like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.

Moore and those opposed to the Oct. 30 summit said they have “grave concerns” about the event, according to the ADN. They reference a statement from the American Boards of Family Medicine, Internal Medicine and Pediatrics which says physicians who “spread COVID-19 misinformation risk jeopardizing their medical license or facing other disciplinary actions from state medical boards.”

In response to this letter, the Alaska Covid Alliance – which hosted the early treatment summit – posted a call to action on its website. It urges Alaskans to contact the State Medical Board in defense of Dr. Farr and other physicians who are willing to help Covid patients who want access to early treatment options that may not include the experimental shot.

There is no greater fight than to stand up for these Alaskan hero doctors as they fight for your medical freedom.

“Farr and her colleagues who provided information on preventive vitamin therapy and early treatment, to include the use of Ivermectin and Chloroquine, are under a direct attack by the medical establishment,” the Nov. 14 statement from Alaska Covid Alliance says. “Science and reason flourish in an environment where questioning and open discourse are allowed and encouraged, not where those who question the status quo are censored and vilified.”

The statement notes that “our own good doctors are under attack from the establishment doctors who are attempting to take medical licenses away through the Alaska Medical Board. These providers promote the current so called ‘best practices’ that leave few options other than Covid vaccines and if sick enough, hospitalization, Remdesivir (which only works in the first phase of the disease) and placing the seriously ill on ventilators.”

According to Alaska Covid Alliance, Dr. Farr has treated over 720 Covid patients and has only lost one who was “unable to get a prescription filled for Ivermectin and was admitted to the hospital that then was refused Ivermectin treatment.” It adds that Alaska physicians “put their license on the line to educate us and help keep us safe from this terrible disease. Now it is our turn to stand up and be counted. THERE IS NO TIME TO LOSE.”

The Alaska Medical Board meeting is open to the public, but board members will only take one hour of testimony from those who have pre-registered to speak. Most Alaskans who wish to support of Dr. Farr and Dr. Nolte will need to write to the board directly before the Nov. 19 meeting.

“In clear terms, voice your concern regarding the refusal to allow pharmacies in Alaska to fill orders for Ivermectin and the Chloroquine drugs and the outright refusal of hospitals to administer these drugs, if ordered by a doctor, to patients infected with the Covid virus,” Alaska Covid Alliance advises. “Additionally, we cannot allow the establishment to stack the deck with testimony supporting the refusal of hospitals to treat early intervention with proven drugs and not allowing patients their right to choose.”

The letter ends by stating “there is no greater fight than to stand up for these Alaskan hero doctors as they fight for your medical freedom. It may be the fight for life of a family member, a friend, or your own life. Please act now!”

The State Medical Board consists of five physicians, one physician assistant, and two public members. Board members are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Legislature. The board adopts regulations governing the practice of medicine in Alaska. It also makes final licensing decisions and takes disciplinary action against people who violate licensing laws.

    The only misinformation is that an experimental RMNA vaccine is the only way to beat C19.

  • Ken says:

    How do we get a list of the Doctors that signed on to this witch hunt

    • Tsamacuus says:

      I want that list also someone needs to let everyone know who the commy doctors are! And also the ones who aren’t pushing experimental jabs!

    • CNOME says:

      All of those doctors need reported to the Medical board for being complicit with crimes against humanity and genocide.

    • Marlene C. says:

      That was my first thought. Who are these Drs. I know a couple in Kenai who are pushing it and one of them puts down any of the others because he thinks they don’t know the truth. He only believes what the AMA reports. I’m thinking that there are a lot of them who push it as they are paid for each one they give.

    • NC says:

      I want this list too for myself and family!
      These so called doctors are out of control!
      It’s my body, my choice, not theirs!

  • Jesse says:

    What a fantastic summit. The courage of these true medical professionals is awesome. They should be celebrated and absolutely defended. They have been isolating everyone to demoralize and convince them that is hopeless. This should give everyone real hope that they are not alone, 1200 professionals. Hooray For Truth! Hooray For Good Americans! Hooray for Anchorage for hosting it!
    Call, email, and write to defend these doctors

  • Jul says:

    Let us see the covid treatment successes or lack there of
    from these doctors that are going after the hero doctors . What are their percentages for recovery and death? Let them show proof.

  • david Boyle says:

    Joel D thanks for putting this information out. It seems as if the medical community wants to shut down all debate as to the effectiveness of early Covid treatments. That is shameful and non-scientific.

  • Steven Chappell says:

    Must like how they schedule public comment during the middle of the day when productive Alaskans are hard at work.

  • Deborah E Peterson says:

    The above listed date is incorrect: (“Click here to see the agenda for the Nov. 20 Alaska Medical Board meeting”)

  • Toni says:

    If the Medical Board revokes the licenses of these doctors who are clearly advocating for their patients, what is the Board going to do with the hospital doctors who let patients die rather than administer ivermectin as had been prescribed by the patients’ own doctor? Sounds like malpractice, if not negligent homicide, to me.

  • Veronica knight says:

    The medical board should be ashamed of themselves if they try to take allow these medical professionals licenses . Ivermectin and other alternatives medicine have saved people’s lives. If they want to prescribe it they should be allowed . They are doing nothing wrong .

    • Theresa says:

      The medical board should disclose how much money the hospitals take in for each patient on a ventilator, and how much they receive for each patient death.

  • Proud Alaskan says:

    Both are strong advocates for early treatment options like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
    My doctor or any doctor has the RIGHT to prescribe any medication that they think will work for there patients. Not everyone believe in aspirin ok it’s not for you. But works for others it’s there choice, or exercise every day or not. It’s my choice between myself and my doctor. It’s none of your business. Who care what your doctor prescribe. It’s all this woke control, Follow the money.

  • C. Peterson says:

    I emailed my letter to the Alaska Medical board last night. The Medical Board will only accept emails until Wednesday Nov. 17.
    So please stand up for these valiant doctors who do more than “best Practices.” and email the medical board ASAP. Our Alaskan doctors actually do the research and put the patients welfare first. They ARE hero’s because they are fighting for our medical freedom.

  • Tamra+Nygaard says:

    As usual, it’s apples to oranges. Nobody who is saying to treat early is denying any of the other doctors the chance to put truly ill people on ventilators (which then kills them). Early treatment and late treatment are two different protocols, and so far the late treatment folks aren’t having much luck. Has anyone shown harm caused by ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine? No. Nothing of the kind. But what it does show is that some doctors are unable to do their own research and determine what is in the best interest of their patients. We need that list, so we know who to leave off our Christmas card list.

  • Sally Pollen says:

    It shouldn’t be too difficult to get a list of the 100 doctors who are against freedom, unless the ADN won’t fork it over. Yes, against the freedom for other doctors to practice and prescribe meds for their patients. Amazing that Dr Farr has lost only one Covid patient out of 720! And that death was likely avoidable. Let’s hope the governor picked doctors who are sitting on the medical board right now who are not tied into the world wide agenda to depopulate the masses so they will be easier to control.

  • Steve P Peterson says:

    What I wrote:
    Dear Medical Board,
    I am writing this email as a private citizen who has lived through COVID and survived, as has my wife, due to taking Ivermectin. We are both in our mid-60s and are heathy now.  I am scandalized by the antagonism that the mainline medical community has demonstrated toward those physicians who have prescibed Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin and who champion early treatments rather than the mainline approach of physicians who advise patients to wait it out until they get so sick they are placed on a ventilator in a hospital and given that horrific drug Remdesivir. Many die there. 
    Leave these doctors alone. Do not take action against them to censure or stop them, as this group of other doctors is advocating. This is (still) a free country and people should have the right to seek the treatment they desire. Doctors should have the right to advocate for and prescribe medicines and treatments other than the ones approved by big pharma and the medical-industrial complex. 

  • Carrie+Harris says:

    Tyrannical doctors now telling you not only do you not have the freedom to choose your medical care but they’re going to take the freedom to choose your doctor away.
    Alaska laws need to require that along with a doctor’s medical license hanging on the wall that they’re also be his list of conflicts of interest including every pharmaceutical drug is he she invested in. They should also be required to tell you how much your information and medical history is worth when they sell it to the pharmaceutical companies that includes your history if you die and it should be deducted from your medical bill including the final medical bill.

  • Nita+Young says:

    Anyone who is not supporting our real doctors who are saving lives with Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine that are 100% life saving….belongs to this wicked establishment of pro medical-government people ….who see nothing but $$ signs….these medical people are making a fortune at the cost of lives of our families and friends…..they are so delusional they cannot see the truth!……it is all about Fauci and Gates and Soros and Schwab and their New World Order and eradicating the population world wide by 90%. They do not have the God given sense to see the truth……my friend who lives in OK….their hospital has given Ivermectin since day one and they have not lost 1 person to this since March of 2020……what is it that for all the ‘education’ these establishment doctors get they have swallowed the lies of this wicked government-medical tyranny……or they don’t give a dam……and they keep lining up for boosters……real education is right there on the internet…..we have 2 choices left…..SLAVERY or FREEDOM! What do people not understand these mRNA vaccines kill T-cells….change your blood composition to clotting factors and it cannot be reversed! you will be dead within 2 or 3 years….and this vaccine attacks the brain, the heart, and all major organs….and you have no immune system left to fight……and you think oh well….I have life insurance for my family……no, no…..life ins. does not pay anything ……they are exempt…because it is experimental….and if anyone tells you different ….they are lying to you……there is no need for a vaccine for this covid and it can be simply treated……but the establishment medical system of Alaska does not want that…..they want government monies….and lots of them…….any doctor who encourages you to get this vaccine does not give a dam about you……you are worth a lot of money….alive and more if your dead……Open your mind to the truth and let’s get some real doctors on our medical board who have some common sense and see the truth and the reality of what is really going on……this is genocide……it is completely unconstitutional….the elites and big money people are behind this…Gates just got possession of his new yacht for $657 million dollars thanks to this vaccine of which they, Gates and friends……. own many patents…..the truth will set you free and hopefully save your life for not taking it…..

    The 100 so Called Doctors that are in opposition to the facts are the very ones who are taking CARES ACT FUNDING. For services not rendered! They are all in the perpetual lie 100%

  • Greg in Homer says:

    The vaccines are failing. The country of Gibralter with 100% of the population vaccinated, with an average vax per person of 2.7 doses, is currently undergoing a surge in covid cases. If the vax worked this would be impossible. Conclusion – the vax doesn’t work. Doctors opposed to therapeutics better wake up and smell the coffee. Therapeutics like Ivermectin will be the only way to stop Covid.

  • hj says:

    THE ALASKA STATE MEDICAL BOARD MAY DO A “WITCH HUNT” ON ALASKA DOCTORS WHO HAVE SAVED COUNTLESS LIVES OF PEOPLE WITH COVID. WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN!!

    I COMMEND THE ALASKA DOCTORS WHO ARE SAVING PEOPLES LIVES THAT GET COVID BY USING THE IVERMECTIN COCKTAIL. THESE ARE DOCTORS WHO DON’T CARE ABOUT MAKING $415,000.00 FOR EACH COVID PATIENT THEY ADMIT TO A HOSPTIAL.
    CONNECTIUCUT HOSPITALS OFFER IVERMECTIN!!! ( IVY LEAGUE DOCTORS!)
    DOCTORS IN ALASKA MAKE $415,00.00 FOR EACH SICK COVID PATIENT THAT IS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL IN ALASKA. THE HOSPITALS ALSO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY.. PATIENT ALMOST ALWAYS DIE IN THE HOSPITAL. PATIENTS ARE WORTH MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE!!! THIS IS THE TRUTH!!
    IT IS THE HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATORS THAT ARE REFUSING TO USE IVERMECTIN IN THE HOSPITALS.
    ATTORNEYS ARE NOW SUING HOSPITALS OVER “THE RIGHT TO TRY”
    THE IMPORTANCE OF EARLY TREATMENT OF COVID-19 IS TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF THE HOSPITAL AND TO SAVE THEIR LIFE!!!!
    A COVID VACCINATION IS ALSO IMPORTANT, BUT ONLY WHEN WE HAVE A SAFER COVID-19 VACCINE, LIKE THE “NOVAVACC.” IT SHOULD BE AVAILABLE SOON. THE NOVAVACC IS MADE MORE LIKE OUR TRADITIONAL VACCINES, LIKE THE FLU SHOT.
    THE NOVAVACC IS NOT MADE LIKE THE mRNA SHOTS THAT WE HAVE NOW; PFIZER, MODERNA, JOHNSON &JOHNSON.
    THE COVID CLOT SHOTS THAT WE HAVE NOW ARE EXPERIMENTAL SHOTS!!!!
    P.S. PFIZER’S NEW ANTI-VIRAL COVID TREATMENT IS IVERMECTIN!!!! (WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU?)

  • MHS says:

    In September my husband went into Mat-Su Regional Hospital. I was told he was in renal failure and had Covid. I asked the doctor if they could give him Ivermection and Hydroxychloroquine as they might help and wouldn’t hurt him. Dr. Ling told me they did not have ‘good results’ with those and refused my request. They put him on a ventilator. Three days later Dr. Ling was explaining to me that my husband would not survive. I was told that what happens when they use the ventilator is the air pressure is so high it literally shreds the lungs so the patient will never be able to breath again. So considering that is the ‘treatment’ Dr. Ling choose to use even when he knew in advance what the end results would be, as opposed to a treatment that might work and would not harm, I can only assume shredded lungs are the ‘good results’ he was working for. As far as I’m concerned the cowards who refuse to at least try Ivermection and Hydroxychloroquine before they shred a person’s lungs are murderers. So are the pharmacists who refuse to fill the prescriptions. They make me think of the spineless Germans who whined after the war that they had no choice but to help murder millions. They might have lost their jobs or their homes so instead they allowed children to be baked alive. I wonder if when these worthless doctors and pharmacists go to their homes and their families do they ever think about the people who will never go home to their families again and those families due to medical ‘professionals’ who are complicent in allowing our country to become a country that allows stockholders profits and political hatred to dictate medical treatment.

    The Hippocratic Oath
    According to a 1989 survey, barely half of U.S. medical schools used any form of the Hippocratic Oath and only 2% used the original.
    Today’s doctors face a number of important ethical issues that are not included in the Hippocratic Oath. For example, it makes no mention of:

    • honoring patients’ preferences
    • sharing medical information with patients
    • avoiding conflicts of interest, such as profiting by ordering unnecessary tests or treatments
    • protecting patients who enroll in research studies
    • treating all patients equally, regardless of ability to pay, social class, education, race, or suspicion of criminality
    • avoiding the practice of medicine while impaired (due to physical or psychological disease).

  • John Henry says:

    I would also to know the names of these 100 Doctors For starters, there was a Dr. published in the ADN who called the early treatment conference a bunch of lies and miss information. Maybe we should all look him up and let everyone know what we think of Doctors like him.

    I think Its time We the People of Alaska cancel the Anchorage Daily News (ADN)

    Washington, DC, Nov. 10, 2021
    Paul Marik, MD, one of the most highly published critical care physicians in the world and the Director of the ICU at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, was recently told by Sentara Healthcare that he could no longer administer a range of highly effective COVID-19 treatments to critically ill patients—the same treatments he has successfully used to reduce COVID deaths in the ICU by as much as 50%. The result of the prohibition has been a sharp increase in patient mortality. Because Dr. Marik can no longer stand by while patients needlessly die without proper treatment, he has filed a lawsuit to allow him and his colleagues to administer the combination of FDA-approved drugs and other therapies that has saved thousands of critically ill COVID-19 patients in the last 18 months.
    The Complaint filed today in the Circuit Court for the City of Norfolk, Virginia states that Sentara Healthcare is “preventing terminally ill COVID patients from exercising their right to choose and to receive safe, potentially life-saving treatment determined to be appropriate for them by their attending physician.” Under Virginia law, every patient has the right to receive treatment deemed appropriate for them by their attending physician, and terminally ill patients have the right to try investigational medicines that their treating physician recommends. Through its arbitrary prohibition of the COVID-19 treatment protocol developed by Dr. Marik and his colleagues, Sentara is violating the law and unjustly depriving critically ill patients of lifesaving treatment.

    “This case is about doctors, having the ability to honor their Hippocratic Oath, to follow evidence-based medicine, and to treat our patients the best we know how. Corporations and faceless bureaucrats should not be allowed to interfere with doctor-patient decisions, especially when it can result in harm or death.” according to Paul Marik, MD, chief, Division of Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine, Eastern Virginia Medical School, who practices in the Sentara Norfolk General Hospital. “I refuse to watch another patient die from COVID-19 knowing that I was not allowed to give them proven treatments that could have saved their life.”
    Doctors take an oath to do no harm. Dr. Marik says he can’t think of a way of doing more harm to a patient than to not administer a treatment that you know can help them. No doctor should be forced to watch their patient die knowing that more could have been done to save them and that is exactly what Sentara Norfalk General Hospital is doing.”

    @ Davidson Joel:

    Under “taking action” it says the meeting is on the 20th…might wanna change that to the 19th.

    • S says:

      Joel, are you willing to publish a piece for our citizens and your readership about the number of patients (nation wide and specifically in Alaska) who are put on vents after testing positive with Covid and then who are denied normal medical protocols (like normal iv hydration and NG tubes for nourishment)??? I believe this topic is closely related and that locals need to know the facts. How can any sick person recover from any sickness without proper hydration and nourishment???

  • hj says:

    Dr. Iiona Farr and Dr. Nick Nolte are not peddling disinformation about Covid. Both doctors have extensive experience and great success in treating coronavirus patients through an early proactive treatment combination, of ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and supplements. These doctors are helping their patients. They have saved lives and prevented hospitalizations.
    I hope Dr. Ilona Farr and Dr. Nick Nolte continue helping their patients by treating Covid early and aggressively to save lives.
    The Angry Alaska Medical Board is conducting a “REVENGEFUL WITCH HUNT” TO PUNISH DR. IIONA FARR, DR. NICK NOLTE AND OTHER MEDICAL DOCTORS WHO PRESCRIBE THE IVERMECTIN COCKTAIL, THAT SAVE PEOPLE’S LIVES FROM COVID.
    STOP THE WITCH HUNT NOW!

  • juuj says:

    Did Dr. Moore even attend the early treatment summit???

  • William Parlier says:

    I attended the seminar. Made an appointment with Dr Farr and told her I would be traveling and wanted her prescription medicine to travel with me. In my younger years when going on extended trips into the wilderness we would ask our doctors for pain pills in case someone got hurt.. The doctors complied. I am 76 years old and started having headaches on Wednesday, Thursday I felt tightness in my chest and tried two places to get a quick turnaround Covid test. Both places said I would need an appointment. Woke up early Friday morning feeling worse and said the heck with this and started taking the medicine. Next three days sick like I have not been in over a decade. Day 7 now and feeling much better. I have previously had the 2 pfizer shots and the pfizer booster. I am convinced that in the future this covid debacle will turn out to be the largest medical and financial scam ever perpetrated in the world. God bless Dr Farr and the other truth tellers! Will stand 100 % behind Dr Farr!
