By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
Please enjoy this full length keynote address by Dr. Peter McCullough at the annual meeting of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons held in Washington DC on September 14, 2025. The outline of this Chautauqua style presentation is divided into three sections:
I. The first great cocaine epidemic 1860-1920
II. Smokefest 1920-1978
III. Vaccine mania 1986-present
In each example the crisis lasts for decades. Doctors participate in the harmful behaviour or procedure and do not self-correct. It takes many years of heterodox heroes calling out the problem, public outcry, court cases, congressional testimony, rooting out corruption, and finally the medical orthodoxy and citizenry are brought back to baseline which is being free or in the natural state unencumbered from the iatrogenic harm.
As illustrated in the NYT best seller Vaccines: Mythology, Ideology, and Reality, while vaccine ideology had been growing for three centuries, it was after the 1986 Vaccine Injury Compensation Act that removed product liability from immunizations that there was an explosion of new products and intensification of the vaccine schedule for children for which every state in the country has requirements for school based on vaccination status. Sadly, as Dr McCullough points out, with this development there was been was of allergic and neuropsychiatric diseases linked to excessive vaccination. To make matters worse, the autism epidemic appears to be a central driver of the transgender crisis.
In each period of time, the medical establishment is physically or mentally addicted to the harmful behaviour and does not recognized damage being done to themselves or society. Adverse outcomes like autism are normalized as “neurodiversity.” A strong indicator we are in a time of medical controversy is the plummeting confidence in the medical establishment and public health agencies. So get ready for more headlines for years to come until the present crisis is closed.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
