    A public health expert says a former doctor used their privileged position to discredit Covid-19 vaccines


    Open Justice reports former TVNZ presenter Samantha Bailey has had her medical registration cancelled, and ordered to pay more than 148-thousand dollars after sharing misinformation online.

    Her You Tube channel has racked up more than 18-million views.

    Dr Michael Baker says her views may have caused issues including long covid or death.

    He says she did this a very knowing and calculated way.
