Spectacularly Shabby and Sordid Corruption
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 9th 2024 10:49am ESTZeroHedge just reported allegations pertaining to the Trump prosecution in Atlanta—allegations that seem too spectacularly shabby and sordid to be true. Indeed, even a satirical novelist as zany as Carl Hiaasen would probably hesitate to make up such a ridiculous farce. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis hired her secret lover to serve as special […]
The Definition of Insanity
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 9th 2024 8:04am ESTThis morning someone sent me a link to Alex Berenson’s post about the AARP advising its nearly 38 million members to get another COVID-19 booster shot, even if they have already had five boosters. This prompted me to visit AARP’s website, which features an entire category of content titled Scams & Fraud—that is, warnings to […]
Dr. McCullough Neighbor’s Choice Conversation with David Gornoski
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 9th 2024 5:31am EST By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH I have been impressed with the original journalism and final product from independent media anchors who have developed their own following based on their content, style, and persona. David Gornoski is exemplary. David Gornoski is the host of the radio show A Neighbor’s Choice–a show that looks at politics, […]
Fauci’s Self-Professed Ethics above the Catholic Church, Personal Pandemic Preparedness, and More
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 8th 2024 5:48am EST By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH Ed Henry on “Wake Up Patriots” surprised me when he played a clip watched by Liz Wheeler showing Dr. Fauci on a personal interview where he tells the reporter he thinks his ethics are sufficient and that he no longer needs the Catholic Church. You will see my response. […]
Defining the Left-Right Political Spectrum
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 7th 2024 10:58am ESTThe Viennese philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein, famously argued that many disagreements about philosophical, scientific, and personal matters arise from the use of language in an ill-defined way. People attribute different meanings to the same words without realizing they are doing it. This unwitting lack of agreement about definitions leads to unnecessary and unproductive quarreling. I’m often […]
Management of Oral Lesions after COVID-19 Vaccination
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 7th 2024 5:37am EST By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH I recently had a patient who had salivary gland problems after vaccination and when I looked in her mouth I saw unusual lesions at the orifice of the parotid duct. I wondered if there were any solutions. Joseph et al published a brief summary of the litany of oral/facial […]

Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 6th 2024 4:08pm EST Major General Smedley Darlington Butler was, at the time of his death in 1940, the most decorated Marine in U.S. history. During his 34-year career, he fought in the Philippine–American War, the Boxer Rebellion, the Mexican Revolution, and World War I.

Biden Admin Sues Texas for Immigration Law
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 5th 2024 10:35am ESTThe Biden Justice Department is quarreling with Texas Governor Greg Abbot over a new Texas state immigration law that gives state law enforcement authority to detain and deport illegal immigrants. The Texas State Legislature passed this law in response to the peculiar and conspicuous fact that federal authorities have apparently (for some reason) ceased enforcing […]
Twitter Blocked Vaccine Injury/Death Hashtags to Boost Acceptance
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 5th 2024 4:29am EST Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH I have always wondered about how many people rely on hashtags to search for topics on social media and whether they have any impact. The use of hashtags was first proposed by American blogger Chris Messina in a 2007 tweet.[3][4] Messina felt that “they were born of the internet, and […]
News from the McCullough Foundation
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 4th 2024 9:41pm EST As many readers of Courageous Discourse Substack know, until the spring of 2020, I worked in the mainstream of academic medicine, holding leadership positions in major medical centers. I never thought of myself as a dissident and nor did I ever contemplate becoming one. With the arrival of COVID-19, my conscience compelled me to ascertain […]
Understanding the Fentanyl Crisis
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 4th 2024 2:24pm EST Over the last year I’ve heard multiple stories of young people taking what they thought were recreational drugs—or pharmaceutical drugs for recreational purposes—that turned out to be spiked with fatal quantifies of fentanyl. Fentanyl is making its way into a wide range of drugs, including stimulants. This means that, even if young people believe they […]
Natural Immunity Protects Against Severe Infection Throughout Pandemic
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 4th 2024 4:38am ESTBy Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH When a patient called from from 2022 forward with a new episode of COVID-19, the first thing I asked them was “have you had COVID-19 in the past?” This is such an important question because that natural immunity has been powerful in mitigating risks of future COVID-19 hospitalization. Uuskula […]
“It Could Be Bad For You”
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 3rd 2024 9:46pm EST In 2019, independent investigative journalist, Sharyl Attkisson, produced a stunning report on the U.S. government’s concealment of expert witness testimony that vaccines can and do indeed cause autism in some children. As Attkisson wrote in related report (How a pro-vaccine doctor reopened debate about link to autism) published in The Hill on 1/13/19: Pediatric neurologist […]

Trying to Dodge the Truth
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 3rd 2024 10:43am ESTThis morning I woke up to four e-mails containing the following: 1) Dr. Peter McCullough’s Substack post of this morning, titled Public Has Lost Trust in Scientific Manuscripts from Vaccinated Authors or Institutions that Promote or Mandate COVID-19 Vaccination. 2) A link to Harvard President Claudine Gay’s resignation letter. 3) A link to a report […]
Public Has Lost Trust in Scientific Manuscripts from Vaccinated Authors or Institutions that Promote or Mandate COVID-19 Vaccination
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 3rd 2024 5:34am ESTBy Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH I have always wondered how hard it would be for a research scientist or clinician-investigator to publish a paper concluding COVID-19 vaccination was unsafe when they took the jab, had their family vaccinated, pushed it on their patients, and worked in an environment where their job was dependent on […]
Military Officers Seek Accountability
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 2nd 2024 10:51pm ESTThis morning a friend in the US Marine Corps sent me a copy of a document titled “An Open Letter to the American People from Signatories of this Declaration of Military Accountability” signed by several ranking military officers. Though I’m far from sure about it, I suspect that such an open letter to the American […]

Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 2nd 2024 9:20pm EST By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH Dr. Miriam Grossman, one of the world’s most renown pediatric psychiatrists is leading this effort to force the American Psychiatric Association to withdraw this publication because of its lack of scientific integrity and its reckless approach to the safety data emerging on hormonal and surgical transgender interventions. From Dr. […]
The Profitability of Dysfunction
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 2nd 2024 6:00am ESTWhat do out-of-control immigration across the southern border and homelessness in San Francisco have in common? Answer: both are extremely profitable. A Mexican friend who is well-informed about the situation on the southern border has reason to believe the flow of illegal immigrants is directed by the Mexican mafia, which demands payment of over $10,000 […]
SARS-CoV-2 Infection Drops Testosterone Levels
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 2nd 2024 5:04am EST By Peter A.

At times men have indicated that sex drive is lower and ability to maintain an erection has diminished with their long-COVID syndrome. Karkin and Gurlin reported on 348 patients from […]
The End of Free Speech?
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 1st 2024 7:08pm EST Not so long ago, most people would have been deeply confused by the characterization of a journalist as a “free speech advocate.” For the better part of two centuries in the United States, the American people understood the occupation of “journalist” to be inherently that of a free speech advocate. Not so anymore. Now many—if […]
Xylitol and the Gateway Microbiome
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Jan 1st 2024 2:03am EST By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH The oropharynx harbors thousands of bacteria and fungi that live in symbiosis with the human body. This is called the “gateway microbiome” since the nose and the mouth are the entry point for air, water, and food to the human body. Several cups of secretions from the nose and […]
Fatal Shark Attack on Maui
Dr. Peter McCullough MD - Dec 31st 2023 11:01am EST Yesterday a few friends on Maui texted me: “Shark attack in Paia Bay.” I know the spot very well, because I lived near Paia in 2019 and surfed Paia Bay almost every day. This morning I was saddened to hear the news that the 30-year-old man has died in hospital from his injuries. The shark […]
