On October 2, Dr. Peter McCullough was a key speaker at the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons’ 78th Annual Meeting, where he shared the concerns he has of COVID-19 vaccines to those in attendance both in-person and online. Taking place in Downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the 3-day event welcomed Dr. McCullough as one of the last speakers as he discussed Winning the War Against Therapeutic Nihilism and the Rush to Replace Trusted Treatments with Untested Novel Therapies.
Something Isn’t Right
Introducing himself as an internist, cardiologist, and trained epidemiologist, Dr. McCullough mentioned that he “stepped forward in COVID-19” because “something was going very wrong, very early” and he “wasn’t going to stand for it.” His hour-long speech highlighted the great gamble associated with vaccine development and several shortcuts that were taken.
Specific risk groups such as “pregnant women, women of childbearing potential, individuals who were Covid-recovered, and those with positive serologies,” Dr. McCullough said, were agreed to be excluded from participating in clinical trials by the FDA and all the Institutional Review Boards. Yet, for some reason, those groups were encouraged to take the vaccine once it was readily available.
“They should have excluded those who were excluded from clinical trials … because they knew that vaccines weren’t going to work or cause excessive harm,” Dr. McCullough said. “Under no circumstances should a human being have ever taken one of these vaccines because they weren’t allowed in (a) clinical trial. Full stop.”
Key Points Argued
Some other key points during McCullough’s speech:
mRNA vaccines include spike proteins, which are being injected into the human body. “It is a deadly protein. By itself, it is a deadly protein. It’s the first time in human medicine where we are injecting vaccines and we are asking the human body to make a potentially lethal protein.”
As of Sept. 24, according to CDC database VAERS 15,937 vaccinated Americans have died, over 250,000 vaccinated Americans have gone to hospitals or had an office visit, and over 20,000 vaccinated Americans are permanently disabled which he described as “bigger than some major cancer groups.” Of those deaths among the vaccinated, 50% occur within 48 hours of the shot, 80% occur within a week and 86% have no other explanation for their death other than the vaccine. The government denies these claims.
The virus is figuring out how to thrive among the vaccinated. By now we should be seeing 3-12 different strains. Dr. McCullough said that the “Delta variant is here to stay until the vaccine changes.”
Vaccines have had no impact on the epidemic curve. What reduces mortality is expedited treatment and how we respond to the virus.
Hospitals don’t know who is vaccinated so where are these numbers coming from that are swirling in the news and on social media? If 23% of Americans who were hospitalized with COVID-19 had been vaccinated, then the narrative that 99% were among the vaccinated was made-up propaganda. It has never been 99%.
