The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) Board of Medicine suspends licensed physician Lorraine Marie T. Badoy from practicing medicine for six months, according to reports citing the PRC resolution dated May 8. The suspension follows public statements Badoy made that linked health workers to the Communist Party of the Philippines–New People’s Army–National Democratic Front (CPP–NPA–NDF), which is designated as a communist terrorist group by the Philippine government. A counsel for the complainants, Tony La Viña of Movement Against Disinformation (MAD), said the group received the resolution and that the Board found Badoy liable based on the statements covered in the complaint. Multiple outlets describe the case as part of a series of professional penalties involving “red-tagging,” noting that Badoy had previously faced sanctions connected to similar accusations involving other individuals, including lawyers and a judge. The reported decision bars Badoy from medical practice during the six-month suspension period. The outlets also frame the action as a regulatory response to statements they say associate health workers with a rebel organization.
