Sherri Tenpenny is no longer a licensed physician after airing fringe comments and ducking investigators.

'Sherri Tenpenny, an osteopathic doctor who says she’s been researching for 21 years vaccine adverse events, testified before a legislative committee this week that people can stick keys, spoons and forks to their foreheads after getting the coronavirus vaccine possibly because they've been magnetized.'

Yeah keys are brass or nickel and brass. Both are non-ferrous.

Don't believe this comment! He's been compromised by big magnet!

She was brave enough to stand up to big magnetism.

It is irrelevant, but some (not all) of my keys here in Germany are magnetic. I know because I have a magnet board for my keys to hang on. That being said, she's fucking crazy. It's a simple test that you can disprove... and if this was true, oh God what MRI machine would do to someone. If they were so strongly magnetic that things could stuck to the, they would be torn apart.

Was going to get an MRI on my brain, but was worried about the steel clip that was used for my vasectomy. The tech said, "Just let us know if you feel anything tingle once you get in the room." I literally walked into the room with both hands firmly on my junk, knowing full well that it wouldn't change anything.

Long story short, the metal clips they use are non-ferrous. :)
