Begin quote.
Some of McCullough’s public statements contributed to the spread of COVID-19 misinformation.
McCullough testified before a committee of the Texas Senate in March 2021, posted to YouTube by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, in which he made false claims about COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines, including that people under 50 years of age and survivors do not need the vaccine and that there is no evidence of asymptomatic spread of COVID-19.
Posted on the Canadian online video sharing platform Rumble, McCullough gave an interview in April 2021 to The New American, the magazine of the right-wing John Birch Society, in which he advanced anti-vaccination messaging, including falsely claiming huge numbers of fatalities attributed to the COVID-19 vaccines. In May 2021, McCullough gave an interview in which he made claims about COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines which were “inaccurate, misleading and/or unsupported by evidence”, including that survivors cannot be re-infected and so do not require vaccination and that the vaccines are dangerous.
During television appearances, McCullough has contradicted public health recommendations, including when asked about the aggressive spread of COVID-19 among children, by suggesting that healthy persons under 30 had no need for a vaccine, and when asked about the relative merits of vaccination-induced immunity versus “natural” (survivor) immunity, by disputing the necessity of vaccinations to achieve herd immunity. In December 2021, McCullough appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience promoting debunked conspiracy theories and misinformation (e.g. the COVID-19 pandemic was planned, the spike protein causes cell death, medical authorities are conspiring to illegitimately suppress hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin).

BTW, your disagreement with these facts does not in anyway invalidate these facts. Nor does your dislike of wikipedia invalidate it as a source.
As for "contradicting public health recommendations", which ones might those be?
The ones that claimed masks work despite Dr. Mengele Fauxi himself saying they don't?
The recommendation that you should listen to the psychopath Fauxi who claimed he was The ScienceTM?
The ones that claimed the arbitrary six feet of distancing would prevent the spread of the virus?
The ones that claimed COVID-1984 would spread in churches but not in liquor stores, smoke shops, or casinos?
The ones that claimed making store aisles one way would prevent the spread of the virus?
The ones that claimed you needed a mask to walk around but COVID-1984 was okay once you sat down?
The ones that claimed it was okay to march cheek to jowl for racist, anti-white demonstrations but not safe to gather with friends and family?
The ones that claimed it was okay to loot and riot under the guise of "protesting" but not safe to gather with friends and family?
The ones that claimed you should be locked down and given untested injections while millions of unvetted illegal aliens crossed the border?
The ones that said you needed to get untested injections to fly in a commercial airplane but COVID-1984 was not an issue in corporate jets?
Yeah, anyone who contradicted such deceitful "recommendations" is to be commended for sanity and reason. Anyone who issued or supports those "recommendations" is a criminal or a cultist.
All your sources are corrupted progressive filth. I will make assumptions based on how and from where you obtain your trusted data. You’re a snake, we know you’re a snake, you know you’re a snake so just slither away.
The COVID-19 vaccine was not needed by healthy people under 50 or kids, as they had very little risk, as shown by accumulated deaths into June of this year:

There wasn't provable asymptomatic spread of consequence, either, and the CDC’s own source, which just came out in February 2021, versus when Dr. McCullough said that in March 2021.
From the CDC’s meta study noted on their site:
Transmission
People who have asymptomatic or symptomatic infections can transmit SARS-CoV-2, with varying rates and timelines for transmission.(16)
Reference 16 that the CDC used from Feb. 2021:
Symptom Status of Index Case
From 18 studies [18, 19, 22, 27, 29–31, 33, 39, 40, 44, 45, 47, 49–53], SAR was lowest for asymptomatic index cases at 1.9% (95% CI: 0.5–3.1) (Figure 5) (asymptomatic definitions and follow-up durations for included studies shown in Supplementary Table 13).
https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/73/3/e754/6131730?login=false
1.9% Secondary Infection Rate (SAR) was believed to occur from asymptomatic people, people who tested positive and got around other people. So out of every 100 asymptomatic people around others, less than 2 people were believed to ever get COVID.
This is anecdotal, but my own cousin died a couple days after getting his first shot. He was in the hospital a day later. He didn't have COVID when he got the shot, but allowing the doctors to say he died of COVID, instead of the shot, let the Federal government pay for his funeral. He actually died from the vaccine effects, and it was obvious.
I'd say there's nothing problematic with Peter, and even the group that was threatening to decertify him, the American Board of Internal Medicine, proudly shows he's still 100% fine:
