A B.C. doctor known for spreading false information about COVID-19 and who has been linked to a website selling fake vaccine exemption certificates has been suspended from practising medicine.
An order issued by the the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia on March 24 prohibits Stephen Malthouse, a physician on Denman Island, B.C., from practice as the college investigates his actions.
An inquiry committee determined there would be a risk of harm to the public if Malthouse continues to practise during the course of the investigation and says his conduct would likely persist without the suspension.
The order can be cancelled if information arises that shows the public would no longer be at risk.
