WHILE there are several doctors who have not lost their medical licences for sexual offences including rape, harassment and paedophilia, another has been struck off for ‘hurty’ words exchanged on social media. Critics say the real reason he was erased is that he engaged in online spats that highlighted vaccine injury.
Dr David Cartland, 42, a GP practising in Cornwall, was investigated by the General Medical Council (GMC) after three doctors, granted anonymity, and a practice manager accused him of harassment on the social media platforms X, Instagram and Gettr. Another charge of dishonesty was brought for writing covid vaccination exemption certificates when not clinically warranted, and he was accused of abusing the LBGTQ+ community. Last week 17 allegations against Dr Cartland were found proven by the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS). They decided he was guilty of serious misconduct and that he should immediately be ‘erased’ from the medical register.
This reflects the current trend of those found guilty of online abuse being handed harsher sentences than criminals who commit harmful crimes. Childminder Lucy Connolly, 51, was sentenced to 31 months last October for a racist tweet after the Southport murder of three young girls, while GP Dr Alan Trevor Campbell from County Londonderry was sentenced to just 75 hours community service for possessing more than 200 indecent images of children. The photographs and videos found on Dr Campbell’s six devices were in the categories A, B and C. The most serious, A, involved sexual activity, the rape of a four-year-old boy, and sadism.
In contrast, Dr Cartland was a covid harms whistleblower who felt a moral duty to inform people, especially pregnant women and parents of young children, of vaccine harms and other covid abuses, including that the injections do not work and can cause disability and death, that cases were exaggerated, there was no informed consent and covid as a cause of death was prioritised on death certificates over a patient’s long-term co-morbidities. He used X, where he has more than 300,000 followers, as his main form of communication, attracting many trolls and criticisms from other doctors whom he criticised back. The exchanges were often likened to playground spats, with both sides giving as good as they got, but the MPTS did not allow him to submit evidence against the three complainants.
Dr Cartland was reported to the GMC by a TV doctor, known as Dr B, who pushed covid vaccinations and took money from AstraZeneca to promote their flu vaccine, and a consultant obstetrician known as Dr A with a special interest in vaccinating during pregnancy. She and her team received a £250,000 grant to promote vaccinations to mothers-to-be. Dr C, a PhD sheep farmer, attacked anyone with a high profile questioning the official covid narrative. He boasted he was engaged in psyops for the 77th Brigade.
Dr Cartland, who received zero patient complaints and was said by his counsel Paul Diamond KC to be a ‘fine’ doctor, is distraught at being struck off. Luckily, he survived an overdose suicide attempt at the weekend, his second. He had considered taking his life during his hearing in October last year, but police persuaded him not to.
