SUSPENDED: Twitter silence Spiriman. CREDIT: Twitter
Social media giants Twitter have suspended the account of Granada-born doctor, Jesús Candel, who goes by Spiriman, over his “controversial” words about cancer.
TWITTER has silenced and suspended Spiriman’s account after the doctor, who became known a few years ago for his fervent fight against cuts in the health services of Andalusia, and who also suffers from cancer himself, wrote: “He who wants to be cured of cancer is cured and he who does not, dies”.
Jesús Candel continued: “Attitude is the ally of the scientific evidence of very harsh treatments. I repeat: he who wants gets what he wants. It is my way of thinking. He who does not want does not get it.”
The comments made by the Granada-born doctor caused “Spiriman” to trend on the social media platform on Sunday night, however, he suffered a lot of backlash for his comments and today his account has been suspended.
