Presentation by Dr. Peter McCullough

The medical standard of care for COVID-19 has been to withhold treatment until a person is sick enough to be hospitalized. Normally, it takes two or three weeks for someone with COVID-19 to get sick enough to be hospitalized. During that period of time, early treatment could have treated, cured, and saved a life.

The excuse used to not treat patients early on was that there were no large, randomized trials conducted to know which treatments were safe and effective. Dr. McCullough said, "We can't wait for large randomized trials...Something got in the minds of doctors and nurses and everyone to not treat COVID-19. I couldn't stand it." Dr. McCullough is a cardiologist, internist, and epidemiologist. He collaborated with colleagues to figure out an early treatment plan. So the question is: why didn't national health organizations step up and do the same?

Dr. McCullough continued, "Our government and other governments, and the entire world, has not lifted a finger to reduce the risk of hospitalization and death anywhere," McCullough said. "If there was a kid with asthma, would we let the kid wheeze and choke for two weeks before the kid has to go to the hospital? No, we give the child medications. We don't have randomized trials for every single thing that we do."

Dr. McCullough and his colleagues realized that there were three major phases to COVID-19. First it starts with virus replication, which then triggers inflammation, or a cytokine storm. Then, this leads to blood clotting. If enough micro blood clots form in the lungs, a person can't get enough oxygen and dies. No single drug can be expected to treat all the symptoms and so Dr. McCullough uses a combination of drugs, as is done to treat HIV and other infections.

However, around the world, doctors are being threatened with loss of their license or even prison for trying to help their patients. French doctor Didier Raoult suggested, early on, putting up a tent to try to treat COVID-19 patients. French authorities placed him under house arrest. He had promoted the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), which initially was available over the counter — until France made it prescription only.

In Australia, if a doctor attempts to treat a COVID-19 patient with HCQ, they are threatened with prison. McCullough says, "Since when does a doctor get put in prison for trying to help a patient with a simple generic drug?" In South Africa, a doctor was put in prison for prescribing Ivermectin.

In August 2020, McCullough's landmark paper Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Infection was published online in the American Journal of Medicine. The follow-up paper was titled Multifaceted Highly Targeted Sequential Multidrug Treatment of Early Ambulatory High-Risk SARS-CoV-2 Infection (COVID-19 ) and was published in Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine in December 2020. It became the basis for the home treatment guide.

While some organizations run by doctors have stepped up and are treating COVID-19 patients, Dr. McCullough says, "The ivory tower today still is not treating patients. The party line in my health system is, do not treat a COVID-19 patient as an outpatient. Wait for them to get sick enough to be admitted. Because my health system...follows the National Institutes of Health or the Centers for Disease Control, period."

In his video presentation, Dr. McCullough explains that if a new drug comes on the market and five deaths occur, the standard is to issue a black box warning stating the medication may cause death. With 50 deaths, the product is pulled from the market. The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) database showed that — for all vaccines before 2020 — there were about 158 total deaths per year.

By January 22, 2021 , there were already 182 deaths reported for COVID-19 injections! Only 27.1 million people had been vaccinated by that time but this was more than enough to raise the warning signal for excessive deaths and stop the program, McCullough said. "We already crossed the line of concern January 22. And if there was a data safety monitoring board — I know, because I do this work — we would have had an emergency meeting and said, wait a minute, people are dying after the vaccine. We've got to figure out why." It is standard practice to have a medical committee who monitors and evaluates problems associated with new drugs and vaccines. No such safetly committee has yet been established for the COVID-19 injection program.

"This is something we've never seen in human medicine — a new product introduced and just going full-steam ahead with no check on why people are dying after the vaccine," McCullough said. He goes on to explain that on two separate occasions (March and June), the CDC and FDA reviewed the data and said none of the deaths were related to the vaccines. "I think this is malfeasance ," he stated.

Fast forward to July 30, 2021, and VAERS data showed 12,366 Americans have died after a COVID-19 injection. In an analysis of COVID-19 vaccine death reports from VAERS, researchers found that 86% of the time, nothing else could have caused the death, and it appears the vaccine was the cause.

The CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) posted online July 30, 2021, documents an outbreak of COVID-19 that occurred in Barnstable County, Massachusetts — 74% of the cases occurred in fully vaccinated people! Indiscriminate vaccination is driving mutations, as the virus is mutating to evade the injections.

In addition, vaccine effectiveness is rapidly waning. A study published in medRxiv , using data from the Mayo Clinic Health System , revealed that Moderna's injection was reduced to only 76% effective and Pfizer's had dropped to a lowly 42% effectiveness against the Delta variant. Hidden in the fine print is the fact that Moderna's jab has three times the mRNA dose of Pfizer's, but, for some reason, health officials aren't even discussing this or giving the public updates on which of the three injections "work best." The government's repeated narrative is always — get an injection, any injection will work for you.

Yet, as Dr. McCullough noted, the virus has mutated, and the vaccines aren't working the way health officials had hoped: "The vaccines don't stop COVID-19, at least effectively, and they're not a shield against mortality."

I highly recommend watching Dr. McCullough's presentation recorded at the Andrews University Village Church in Berrien Springs, Michigan, August 20, 2021. Angie and I had the opportuntiy to hear him speak in person in Salt Lake City, UT last weekend. His presentation will make you ask why a key aspect of care — early treatment — has been missing from the COVID-19 protocol. I'm indebted to my friend David B. for forwarding me the above information which appeared on Dr. Mercola's website but has since been removed.
