Last week, Pete announced that he will be opening his new ‘healing clinic’ in Byron Bay next month – despite having no medical qualifications.
The anti-vaxxer shared the news on Facebook, and hinted at franchise opportunities by offering fans a chance to open their own clinic if they ‘stay tuned for more information’.
After being dropped from Channel Seven earlier this year following a spate of controversial conspiracy theories, Pete relocated to Australia’s hippy capital of Byron Bay, where locals are more likely to be receptive to his pseudoscientific ideas.
The announcement of Pete’s new ‘healing clinic’ comes after he revealed he had purchased a home device to ‘mitigate’ the supposedly harmful effects of 5G.

After courting controversy during the COVID-19 pandemic by railing against the new mobile technology, the avid conspiracy theorist said his ‘biology of beliefs’ had forced him to ‘err on the side of the caution’.
Discussing the matter with Jason Reynolds on his Evolve podcast, the former My Kitchen Rules star admitted he was aware his new purchase could just have a placebo effect, but he felt it was better to be ‘safe than sorry’.
‘I bought it because I wouldn’t say I have a state of fear of 5G, but maybe it’s better to be safe than sorry? And maybe this device that I’ve ordered could help mitigate it,’ he said.
Pete was also fined $25,200 by the Therapeutic Goods Administration in April for promoting a lamp he claimed could help treat coronavirus.
