Dr. Peter McCullough
In case you are a blinded Sheeple, you might be unaware that
Dr. Peter McCullough has been one of the most revered
Cardiologists and accomplished science peer-reviewed author. BUT
when Dr. McCullough’s expertise began to contradict the CONTROL-THE-PEOPLE
mostly bad science edicts, Dr.
McCullough went from revered to smeared. EVEN THOUGH nobody
discredited his science dissent with actual facts, but used the typical
Leftist baseless ad hominem attacks of bad claims of false,
misinformation or disinformation.
With no cited proof other than the baseless ad hominem,
Dr. McCullough is now facing Board Decertification. Substack and book co-writer
to Dr. McCullough - John Leake – comes to Dr. McCullough’s defense
against this Medical Tyranny with a great historical analogy of past absolutely
correct scientists yet were vilified, persecuted and some cases tortured to
death for not recanting truth in favor of bad science.

Imagine the history of medicine if—every time a new disease
emerged or was described for the first time—an Official Cure was
quickly imposed by government authorities, and any doctor who questioned
this Official Cure was branded a dangerous spreader of
misinformation.
To students of history, such a scenario is reminiscent of
the Roman Catholic Church’s Holy Office of the Inquisition, founded to
prosecute anyone in the church’s jurisdiction deemed to have publicly uttered
or written statements that questioned Church orthodoxy on spiritual and
temporal matters. In the scientific realm, the Inquisition’s most notorious
prosecutions were of Giordano Bruno (1548-1600) and Galileo Galilei
(1564-1642). Both were convicted of heresy for their heterodox views. The
former was first publicly humiliated by being hanged upside down on Rome’s
Campo de Fiori and then burned at the stake. His ashes were then thrown in the
Tiber River. The latter spent the last nine years of his life under house
arrest.
For a while I lived in Rome in the Via Tor di Nona, in an
apartment on the site of the Tor di Nona prison in which Giordano Bruno was
incarcerated for seven years before he was put to death, and I often walked
past his stately monument on the Campo de Fiori—a monument to his life and death,
and also to the inhumanity, illiberality, and shame of the Holy Office.
By all accounts, Bruno was an exceedingly adventurous and
courageous man. At his trial, upon receiving his dreadful sentence, he
reportedly gazed directly into the eyes of his judges and said, “Perhaps you
pronounce this sentence against me with greater fear than I receive it.”
Because the US Constitution was so ingeniously framed, the
American people lived in a free republic for over two centuries. Sometime
during the last ten years or so, we lost sight of the fact that the great
advances our people have made in science, technology, and medicine were
entirely predicated on free speech and the free exchange of ideas. James
Madison, the author of our constitution, understood that the danger of
infringing free speech greatly exceeded the danger of people making erroneous
utterances. The reason for his conclusion is simple: The only way to
correct erroneous perceptions and beliefs is to discuss and debate them.
Six months ago, Dr. Peter McCullough received a letter,
dated May 26, 2022, from Richard J. Baron, M.D., who is President and CEO of
the American Board of Internal Medicine. The letter was a formal notice that
the ABIM was considering potential disciplinary sanction of Dr. McCullough. As
Dr. Baron stated:
ABIM has learned that you have
made numerous, widely reported and disseminated public statements about the
purported dangers or lack of justification for Covid-19 vaccines.
Because of Dr. McCullough’s statements—which the Board
deemed to be misinformation—the Board was considering revoking Dr. McCullough’s
ABIM certifications in Internal Medicine and Cardiovascular Disease. In other
words, the ABIM has assumed the function of maintaining/defending the official
orthodoxy of Covid-19 vaccines.
It doesn’t matter that these are a based on a novel gene
transfer technology, developed at Warp Speed, and deployed on the public by
means of an Emergency Use Authorization. According to Dr. Baron, the ABIM’s
understanding of these products and how the body reacts to them is a completely
settled matter. Therefore, doctors who question the safety and efficacy of
these products are, in effect, committing scientific heresy and subject to
disciplinary action.
As Dr. McCullough and I document in
our book, the COVID-19 vaccines—especially the mRNA products
developed by Moderna and PfizerBioNTech—were (already in March of 2020)
heralded as the solution to the pandemic, even before they were tested. As Bill
Gates proclaimed in a
press interview on April 6, 2020, he considered it imperative that
mass manufacturing of these vaccines commence even before they were tested.
This and countless other statements by Gates and his friends in public health
agencies and the mainstream media indicated that the forthcoming vaccines and
their mass deployment were a fait accompli.
As a medical scientist and treating physician, Dr.
McCullough knew all too well the history of drugs that initially seemed safe
and effective, but were later revealed to cause adverse reactions. OxyContin
is a notorious recent example. Since SARS-CoV-2 arrived in the United
States, Dr. McCullough has been at the forefront of researching the COVID-19
syndrome it causes and how to treat it. When the new vaccines were rolled out,
he was at the forefront of investigating their safety and efficacy in the
general public.
In the late spring of 2021, Dr. McCullough grew increasingly
alarmed about the emerging vaccine safety data. According to the CDC, 6,207
deaths of people who’d received the COVID-19 vaccine were reported to the
Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) up to July 26, 2021. This was a
staggering number. By
comparison, the 1976 Swine Flu mass vaccination program was shut down after
about 25 deaths and 550 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome were
reported. [Blog Editor Bold Emphasis]
McCullough pointed this out in his media interviews to the
consternation of his hospital administrators who regarded his statements as
grounds for termination. Since then, he has been systematically stripped of
three professorships, multiple editorial positions at academic medical
journals, and a host of other professional memberships and benefits. All that
remains of his long and distinguished career are his Texas Medical License and
his Board Certifications in Internal Medicine and Cardiovascular Disease. Now
the ABIM wants to strip him of his certifications.
In a letter dated October 18, 2022, the ABIM gave Dr.
McCullough notice that its Credentials and Certification Committee (CCC)
had “determined to recommend that your board certifications be
revoked.”
The ABIM’s CCC claimed that Dr. McCullough’s primary
offenses were:
1). Understating the risk of COVID-19 death for people under
the age of 50.
2). Overstating the risk of death from COVID-19 vaccines.
In making this determination, the ABIM ignored the obvious
fact that both of these risks are highly complex and multifactorial and are
therefore matters of ongoing inquiry and debate. Again the ABIM made the
erroneous assertion that its understanding of these complex phenomena is final,
settled, and therefore codified in official orthodoxy.
By inflicting this grave punishment, the ABIM ignores the
other salient fact that Dr. McCullough has, in the course of his career,
achieved decades of perfect clinical performance, board scores, and hundreds of
peer reviewed publications. His patients—including a growing body of
vaccine injured patients—consistently give him glowing reviews as a healer.
Since I started working with him over two years ago, I have
gotten to know him not only as a compassionate doctor (who frequently takes
calls from sick patients in the evening and makes house calls) but also as a
devoted family man and loyal friend. Beyond his boundless passion for medical
scholarship, he is deeply interested in the entire human condition and the
integrity of our Constitutional Republic. In the two years I've known him, I've
never once heard him complain. He has borne his ongoing persecution with
perfect stoicism and dignity.
He and his lawyer are doing everything they can to challenge
the ABIM’s determination, but doing so is an extremely time-consuming and
costly endeavor. If his stripping is finalized, it will impair his status with
medical insurers and therefore his ability to be paid for his services as a
physician. Welcome to the New American Inquisition.
