Common card · No. 378242

Pierre Kory is an American critical care physician who gained attention during the COVID-19 pandemic for advocating widespread off-label use of ineffective drug treatments for COVID-19, as president and co-founder of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). Kory testified twice to the U.S. Senate regarding COVID-19. During his testimony in December 2020, Kory erroneously claimed that the antiparasitic medication ivermectin was a "wonder drug" with "miraculous effectiveness" against COVID-19. In August 2023, the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) informed Kory his certifications were to be revoked for spreading medical misinformation. As of August 2024, Kory's three certifications are listed as "not certified, revoked" on ABIM's website.
