COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio plastic surgeon’s state medical license was permanently revoked Wednesday after a medical board determined she harmed patients while livestreaming their surgeries on the social media app TikTok. The Ohio Medical Board voted to ban Katharine Grawe — also known as Dr. Roxy in her plastic surgery practice “Roxy Plastic Surgery” and to her many TikTok followers — from ever practicing again in the state. The notice also listed three patients of Grawe’s who suffered severe complications and needed intense medical care after she operated on them. One woman’s intestine was found to be perforated a week after her surgery, a procedure that Grawe partially livestreamed on TikTok. Report for America is a nonprofit national service program that places journalists in local newsrooms to report on undercovered issues.

In this article, EBR’s Eden Teshome assesses the paradox of digital aspiration and the limited Internet access on which digital services heavily depend. The advent of social media is changing that in a way. Foreign investors are hesitant to invest in a country where internet access is unreliable and has the risk of being arbitrarily discontinued for a while. The government accuses Social Media of being a platform for spreading false information that, at times, is used to incite widespread violence. Citizens have a right to access information both online and offline.
