The U.S. Department of Justice announced this Saturday that all charges against Dr. Moore, accused of issuing false COVID vaccination certificates, have been dropped. He faced up to 35 years in prison for these acts, even though they were committed in accordance with the Hippocratic Oath and the French Health Code.
Le Point Critique
12 July 2025
On July 7, the trial of Dr. Michael Kirk Moore, a 58-year-old plastic surgeon practicing at the Utah Institute for Plastic Surgery, began in the United States. Dr. Moore refused to vaccinate some patients against COVID during the pandemic, following the intense public outcry sparked by this case. Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced on July 12 that all charges had been dropped.
Dr. Moore was being prosecuted by the Department of Justice (DOJ) for having implemented, within his clinic, with the complicity of several co-defendants, a "scheme" to defraud the U.S. government and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) by circumventing the federal COVID vaccination strategy.
The charges alleged by the DOJ included the destruction of over $28,028.50 worth of Pfizer COVID vaccines, the distribution of nearly 2,000 vaccination certificates issued without administering the product, and injecting children with saline solution. For these various crimes, Dr. Moore faced a 35-year prison sentence.

An extraordinary trial amidst judicial relentlessness
Regarding the first count, although the doses were destroyed because they were not administered, Dr. Moore was officially charged with "conspiracy to convert, sell, transfer, and dispose of public property," in this case, $28,028.50 worth of Pfizer COVID vaccines supplied by the government. This was a drop in the ocean, considering the number of doses he himself had to destroy, now estimated by the Wall Street Journal at over 90 million doses.
Dr. Moore was notably accused of personally enriching himself by selling his false certificates, a claim he has always denied. On the contrary, he explained in an online interview that he treated patients free of charge during the pandemic. He also recounted in this interview the harassment he suffered at the hands of the Department of Justice, including the tapping of his phones and his incarceration for 22 days, with 22-hour solitary confinement, for attempting to communicate essential judicial information to his co-defendants.
Regarding the other two charges, the federal government ruled in 2023 that Dr. Moore had endangered "the health and well-being of his patients" by taking advantage of their weakness. However, these false certificates were all issued at the patients' request and solely to allow them to circumvent vaccination mandates, which have now been rescinded or deemed illegal in more than half of the US states. Similarly, the saline injections were all administered with the consent of the parents, who were concerned about protecting their children, for whom the new CDC team had recently removed the COVID-19 vaccine from the vaccination schedule.
A few days before the start of his trial, Dr. Moore recalled in an independent media outlet that the vaccine information leaflet given to healthcare professionals is a bulky pamphlet with the following inscription: "Intentionally left blank." It should be noted that the Hippocratic Oath and the French Public Health Code prohibit a physician from administering a product if they are not certain or firmly convinced that it will not cause harm to the recipient.
The decision to prosecute Dr. Moore in January 2023 was all the more surprising given that Utah passed House Bill 131 in March 2023, which prohibits businesses and public entities from discriminating against employees or the public based on vaccination status.
An Unexpected Twist During the Trial
This case deeply moved America, which mobilized in a historic way in support of the doctor. He notably received public support last April from the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy Jr. However, the spotlight remained on Attorney General Pamela Bondi, whose ties to Pfizer are currently the subject of controversy.
In a tweet posted this evening on her X account, she finally announced that she had put an end to a completely unfair situation, a few days after the public intervention of Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, much to the dismay of Le Monde:
At my direction @TheJusticeDept has dismissed charges against Dr. Kirk Moore.

Dr. Moore gave his patients a choice when the federal government refused to do so. He did not deserve the years in prison he was facing. It ends today.
Will this case set a precedent? Probably not, since it was closed based on a discretionary decision by the Department of Justice, without a decision being rendered on the merits. But it does suggest that citizens have understood that they suffered a historic attack on their fundamental rights during the pandemic and that they are now ready to stand with the doctors who refused to obey orders and who are the Schindlers of 2020.
