Let's get real, let's get loud on the American Loud Talk Radio. This is the McCullough Report and I'm Dr. Peter McCullough.

Well, have a great pleasure to launch this week's show. There's a very busy news cycle where in the middle of the Omicron outbreak,

the tallest and potentially the most narrow peak of the pandemic, we have the virus that has been characterized as being able to out-replicate the Delta variant.

The Delta variant is 70-fold increase in viral replication over Delta.

It's now known that it closes the immunologic door on Delta and that Omicron, in a sense, is going to out-compete Delta in populations.

In our CDC now cast indicates as of January 4th, as a prediction that the Omicron variant is now 93% of all cases of COVID-19 in the United States.

And that's what we're seeing clinically. Thank goodness it's a milder syndrome.

Fever, nasal congestion, maybe some myelgyz general viral malaise, and then its brief and its mild without pulmonary involvement.

And there seems to be a hierarchy. It's been my observation that those who are COVID recovered have the briefest and mildest of all the syndromes.

Next comes those who are vaccinated, those probably more closely vaccinated to the time of the illness where they have a greater immunity.

They seem to have a milder syndrome. And then later those who have been vaccinated more distant in a sense the vaccines have expired more than six months ago.

And then finally the unvaccinated integrated way the unvaccinated can indeed have a more severe syndrome, but no more severe than a common cold or an influenza.

There should be rare rates of hospitalization and death truly needed for COVID-19.

Now we know the hospitalization statistics are biased because of differential testing. That means all unvaccinated people who come to the hospital do get COVID-19 testing whether they like it or not.

And then if the COVID-19 test is positive oftentimes in many data sets that is counted as a positive COVID-19 hospitalization.

Indeed the patients there for another illness of vaccinated do not have the same COVID testing standards in most institutions.

Thus there is this great differential in this reporting on COVID-19 hospitalization which is not in line with the binary occurrence of the respiratory infection or with COVID-19 mortality.
