Emily Skala -- who once posted that COVID-19 was "created in a lab" at the University of North Carolina -- has been fired by the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra.
A flutist for the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra who was
publicly rebuked for her conspiracy-laden social media posts has been fired from the prestigious group.
Emily Skala, whose posts on COVID-19 and November's presidential election led the orchestra to distance itself from her in February, was terminated as its principal flutist Tuesday in accordance with its "progressive discipline policy,"
the Baltimore Sun reported.
"Ms. Skala has had discipline imposed upon her over these past few months," BSO's president and CEO, Peter Kjome, said in a statement. "Unfortunately, she has repeated the conduct for which she had been previously disciplined, and dismissal was the necessary and appropriate reaction to this behavior."
Skala said she was fired Tuesday after 33 years in her role.
"I've only ever wanted to state my truth," Skala, 59, told the newspaper. "I'm not going to publicize what I'm going to do, but I'm not going to sit passively by. The BSO can expect to hear from me."
A BSO spokeswoman confirmed to
The Post Wednesday that Skala had been terminated, but said she had no additional information to provide beyond its statement, citing internal personnel matters.
Comment: It's rather telling as to the state of the world that much of the emergency legislation, as well a number of recent laws currently being rammed through parliaments, are being ruled as unconstitutional and a violation of the fundamental rights of citizens; it perhaps should also be a source of hope that there are still some areas of the legislature that have not yet succumbed to total ponerization:
- Russia's human rights chief slams 'dishonest' mandatory Covid-19 vaccine programs, warning people shouldn't be FORCED to take jab
- STRIKES declared by France's firefighter & hospital unions against 'unconstitutional' vaccination mandate
- "This is what a police state is like": UK's ex-supreme court judge lambasts policing, 'collective hysteria' and the lockdown
- Spain's top court rules lockdown unconstitutional
