Who is Peter McCullough?

Dr. Peter A. McCullough is board certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular diseases, and clinical lipidology. He cares for advanced patients with common medical problems including heart and kidney disease, lipid disorders, and diabetes.

Here's more on McCullough from his page at Linked In:

After receiving a bachelor’s degree from Baylor University, Dr. McCullough completed his medical degree as an Alpha Omega Alpha graduate from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. He went on to complete his internal medicine residency at the University of Washington, cardiology fellowship including service as Chief Fellow at William Beaumont Hospital, and master’s degree in public health at the University of Michigan. Dr. McCullough is a practicing internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist in Dallas Texas and the volunteer Chief Medical Advisor of the Truth for Health Foundation.

Dr. McCullough has broadly published on a range of topics in medicine with > 1000 publications and > 680 citations in the National Library of Medicine. His works include the “Interface between Renal Disease and Cardiovascular Illness” in Braunwald’s Heart Disease Textbook. Dr. McCullough is a recipient of the Simon Dack Award from the American College of Cardiology and the International Vicenza Award in Critical Care Nephrology for his scholarship and research. He served on the editorial boards of multiple specialty journals. He has served as member or chair of data safety monitoring boards of 24 randomized clinical trials.

Now consider this testimony McCullough gave to Congress.  Here is a description of the hearing:

Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green (Representative (R-GA 14th District) since 2021) will host a second hearing on COVID-19 vaccine injuries and for the first time, the House will hear from medical subspecialists who have managed patients first hand, extensively published and presented on the topic, and have been recognized as the clinical leaders in pandemic response. Testimony will begin on January 12, 2024, at NOON ET, in the The Rayburn House Office Building, US House of Representatives, 45 Independence Ave SW, Washington, DC 20515.

Peter McCullough:

I never supported these vaccines. I never told a single patient that it was safe to take a vaccine. I didn't take a COVID 19 vaccine myself because it wasn't safe. And I published an op-ed in The Hill in August of 2020 before they came out. The title of that op-ed is "The Great Gamble of a COVID-19 vaccine pandemic. The reason why it was a gamble is because of the vaccines. Of Americans who took the vaccine, roughly 75% of Americans took at least one shot according to COVID State's program. Of those, 94% took a messenger RNA vaccine, so we can restrict our comments to messenger RNA vaccines provided by Pfizer and Moderna.

These vaccines are a brand new technology that installs the genetic code for the lethal part of the virus, which is the spike protein, the spine on the surface of the virus. This was an extraordinary gamble, because there was no knowledge of what was going to turn this off. Once the genetic code gets in the body, there was no knowledge of: Does the body get rid of the genetic code? What shuts it off? Will some people produce too much genetic code and have it keep moving from cell to cell and too much spike protein?

It was known then that the spike protein was lethal. And to give a genetic code for a potentially lethal protein that was devised in a Chinese biosecurity lab to Americans was the most dangerous proposition our government agencies could have ever put forward to our country. And what we've learned on this is extraordinary.

Kastriudah and colleagues has published that the messenger RNA is physically circulating in the blood for at least 28 days. That's as long as they've looked. Cassin and colleagues from Harvard has shown the messenger RNA is stuck in the human heart 30 days after the vaccine when people die. And there's inflammation around it presumably due to the spike protein. Vohlken and colleagues from Stanford have shown the messenger RNA is stuck in human lymph nodes for at least two months and that's as long as they've looked.

Now the spike protein which is produced by the messenger RNA is widely circulatory in blood as showed by hybrid by Ogata and colleagues, Swink and recently Brogna in Germany. Now Brogna in Germany looked six months afterwards and at least half the people that took the shots had vaccines by proteins circulating in their bloodstream. That's as long as they've looked and they can identify it because Pfizer and Moderna have an amino acid signature on their spike protein to let us identify it. We know that it's Pfizer, Moderna doesn't come from the natural virus is coming from the vaccine. That's proven.

The spike protein now in 3400 peer reviewed papers, and growing, is proven to cause heart damage and myocarditis. Our regulatory agencies agree every regulatory agency in the world agrees--there's actually guidelines now in the UK and Australia about how to diagnose and manage vaccine myocarditis. That's how common this is. It accelerates atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, causes tremendous swings in blood pressure and heart rate called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or POTS, causes neurologic injury, stroke, both ischemic and hemorrhagic, paralyzing syndromes, including Guillain-Barre Syndrome, small fiber neuropathy, ear ringing.
