Mayo Clinic censors and suspends doctor for refusing to adhere to ‘prescribed messaging' regarding COVID, trans athletes
[BLAZE] The Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science censored and briefly suspended an anesthesiology professor who refused to adhere to the clinic’s "prescribed messaging" regarding COVID and transgender athletes, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression reported.A letter from the Mayo Clinic obtained by FIRE revealed that MCCMS retaliated against Dr. Michael Joyner after he publicly shared his professional medical opinions about COVID treatments and the physiological advantages of male athletes. In June 2022, Joyner told the New York Times that testosterone allows male athletes to outperform females. "There are social aspects to sport, but physiology and biology underpin it," Joyner told the Times. "Testosterone is the 800-pound gorilla." Joyner was forced to meet with Mayo Clinic’s Personnel Executive Committee members to discuss his comments to the Times. Members expressed their concerns regarding what they described as his use of "inflammatory" language. Despite being scolded by the Mayo Clinic for his comments, Joyner participated in an interview with CNN in January, during which he slammed the National Institutes of Health’s handling of COVID.
