| State Medical board had filed complaints over their support for certain treatments
Complaints have been cleared against two Maui doctors for allegedly “spreading misinformation” about COVID-19, specifically the use of hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin to treat the virus, which federal agencies have advised against.
The state Regulated Industries Complaints Office in the Department of Commerce & Consumer Affairs said last week on its website that “no legal action” was imposed on Dr. Lorrin Pang, who is also the state Department of Health Maui District health officer along with pediatric cardiologist Dr. Kirk Milhoan, who is also the senior pastor of Calvary Chapel South Maui.
The two came under fire last year from state officials and legislators after a Honolulu Star-Advertiser story broke in August saying that Pang was a co-founder of the Pono Coalition for Informed Consent that backed controversial treatments for COVID-19 and that Milhoan supported the use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19. Milhoan also participated in a panel discussion last year with Pang and Merlyn Travis, co-founder and executive director of the Pono Coalition.
