The medical license for Simone Gold, MD, JD, founder of America's Frontline Doctors, was automatically placed on inactive status by the Medical Board of California after she reported to a Miami prison earlier this week to serve her sentence for participating in the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Gold has long argued against COVID-19 vaccines, instead promoting disproven treatments such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. During the January 6 riot, she made speeches about COVID treatments in National Statuary Hall as violent protesters were invading the building.

The medical license for Simone Gold, MD, JD, founder of America's Frontline Doctors, was automatically placed on inactive status by the Medical Board of California after she reported to a Miami prison earlier this week to serve her sentence for participating in the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Gold has long argued against COVID-19 vaccines, instead promoting disproven treatments such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. During the January 6 riot, she made speeches about COVID treatments in National Statuary Hall as violent protesters were invading the building.

Gold was found guilty on one count of entering and remaining in a restricted building, despite law enforcement officials' attempts to prevent her from entering the building and to get her to leave along with the other rioters.
