A world-renowned cardiologist who is speaking at an upcoming Arizona legislative hearing on the government’s “COVID-19” response said he is “locked and loaded with the scientific evidence” for the hearing.

“I will be testifying at this hearing,” tweeted Dr. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH, who has more than 1,000 publications and 660 citations in the National Library of Medicine. “Will be locked and loaded with the scientific evidence and the truth will come out. People were harmed with govt pandemic response when they should have been helped. Never again.” 

McCullough is the former vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center and a professor at Texas A&M University. He is the recipient of the Simon Deck Award from the American College of Cardiology and the International Vicenza Award in Critical Care Nephrology.

Arizona Republican legislators are holding the hearings, named “The Novel Coronavirus Southwestern Intergovernmental Committee,” May 25-26 at the Arizona State Capitol.

Arizona State Sen. Janae Shamp, the vice-chair of the Senate Health and Human Services Committee, will serve as chair of the hearings. State Senate President Pro Temp Thomas “T.J.” Shope will serve as vice-chair.

In a press release announcing the hearings, Shamp and Shope said the hearings “are meant to Arizona Republican lawmakers are establishing a committee to examine federal, state and local efforts to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic, any fallout from such measures, and to identify any possible legal remedies against individuals or entities where appropriate.” 

"The pandemic was a heartbreaking period for so many people on so many different levels," said Shamp. "I lost my job as a Perioperative Nurse because I refused to take the experimental vaccine that we now know has produced serious side effects in a number of otherwise healthy individuals. We've witnessed lives and livelihoods lost for no other reason than the mismanagement of COVID-19, and we are determined to hold those accountable for the injustices experienced."

In addition to McCullough, speakers at the hearing will include Arizona State Rep. Steve Montenegro (R-29) and Republican U.S. Reps. Paul Gosar, Andy Biggs and Eli Crane.

Shamp and Shope said the committee will “evaluate protocols and overall public health guidance, funding incentives for health care facilities, injustices committed against families, businesses, workers and industries, potential preventative protections that may have been able to safeguard Arizona citizens against harms committed, and anything else deemed relevant to the pandemic.”
