Prominent anti-vax doctor has license permanently revoked

Dr. Aryeh Avni, a prominent figure in what is commonly known as the "anti-vax" movement, has had his license to practice medicine permanently revoked, after the Jerusalem District Court rejected his appeal filed after the Health Ministry stripped him of his license a year ago.

"We must distinguish between having an opinion and incitement," stated Judge Nimrod Flax in his ruling, adding that Avni had "conducted a smear campaign against health authorities in an effort to persuade people not to abide by their directives. A doctor who decides to act in such a way, delegitimizing the medical authorities, places himself outside the health system."
