Tullio Simoncini is an ex-doctor and cancer quack. He is known for promoting the idea that cancer is a fungal infection caused by Candida albicans, which in turn can be treated by copious amounts of sodium bicarbonate.[1]

Simoncini was expelled from the Italian Medical Association after he was tried and found guilty of fraud and manslaughter for the treatment of a patient.[2][3][4][5]

In January 2018, Simoncini received a five year jail sentence for killing another patient with intravenous sodium bicarbonate in 2011.[6]

Nevada state assemblywoman Michele Fiore has endorsed Simoncini’s claims. Fiore is also known for supporting domestic terrorism and saying she wanted to shoot Syrian refugees herself.
