Renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough has raised concerns over the potential for renewed pandemic measures, such as mandatory vaccinations and lockdowns, in the event of a Kamala Harris victory on November 5. During an interview, McCullough criticized what he refers to as the “biopharmaceutical complex,” a network of vaccine-related entities he claims lean politically left.
The discussion covered scenarios involving both a potential Donald Trump or Harris presidency amid a possible bird flu pandemic. Recent reports have highlighted cases of H5N1 avian influenza among U.S. poultry and dairy workers, with 27 cases but no fatalities. The risk to the general U.S. population remains low, according to public health officials.
The cardiologist, along with his associates Nicolas Hulscher and John Leake, produced a video on the McCullough Foundation’s website aimed at debunking sensationalism surrounding the bird flu. McCullough noted that although the current bird flu strain, which he believes originated from a USDA laboratory in Georgia, is milder, its spread has stirred public concern.
McCullough also speculated on the political implications of another health crisis. He suggested such outbreaks could be exploited by political factions, particularly under Harris, for control or as a strategy to undermine a Republican presidency. He voiced concerns about vaccine mandates, using Harris’ campaign’s current COVID-19 vaccination policy for staff as a point of reference.
In anticipation of possible resistance, McCullough hopes a potential Trump administration would have advisors advocating for less panic-driven approaches to health crises. He criticized what he sees as excessive vaccination regimes, referring to a recent CDC recommendation for multiple boosters for the immunocompromised as excessive compared to historical vaccine practices.
