Help Defend Dr. Hadi Mourad in Lebanon

The Issue

Dr. Hadi Mourad is a Lebanese doctor who is running an educational campaign in Lebanon to help prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. In a television interview, he strongly criticized the Minister of Health for continuing to allow the arrival of planes from Iran with individuals carrying the virus without even putting them in quarantine. Hours later, Health Minister Hamad Hassan issued him with an arrest warrant and stripped him of his medical license. THE MEDICAL LICENSE CAN ONLY BE WITHDRAWN FOR A SERIOUS MEDICAL FAULT.

Let us request from the Lebanese government to reverse its decision immediately and report this criminal act to the World Health Organization.

If you agree that it is important to protect this courageous doctor and defend free expression in Lebanon, sign this petition and send it to your friends.
