Fully Vaccinated and Boosted Food Writer Julie Powell, Author of ‘Julie & Julia,’ Dead From Cardiac Arrest at 49

These lockdowns were done at the behest and unscientific guidance of the CDC and NIH, 15 days to slow the spread - remember? Only some Govs and Local officials with the guts not to shutdown were the exceptions

Yes. The public health experts thought those were the best ways to slow the pandemic and prevent harm to the public. In good faith.

They had no authority to shut anything down but gave their medical advice to the politicians, as they should have.

It was the politicians who chose what to do with this advice.

This is the tyranny you accept because "it was a novel virus". This is the anti-Constitutional authority you accept and embrace in the name of science. Science which was not scientific, nor peer reviewed, nor debated, otherwise you are cancelled financially or socially.

We're getting pretty far afield. The discussion is about relative death rates and the data that show the vaccines are effective in saving lives.

The data you are providing needs to be peer reviewed for accuracy due to the liars that are providing it, end of story.

The data are not being provided by the CDC, they're being provided by thousands of healthare organizations around the country. The CDC is just aggregating the data and transparently reporting it - and making it available to the public and researchers.

The data are also out there, transparent, and available for anyone to challenge/review/whatever. They've been there for months and no one has found fault with any organization's submitted data as far as I know.

You're free to think all these healthcare systems are conspiring to lie to us for some reason, but I don't.

Yesterday I was stripped of my board certifications in Internal Medicine and Cardiology after decades of perfect clinical performance, board scores, and hundreds of peer reviewed publications.

No he wasn't, as he's now admitted.

"McCullough confirmed to MedPage Today that his status on ABIM's website is correct, stating that he is "fully board certified" in both specialties as listed."

From your link the following is contained:

McCullough told MedPage Today in an email. "I am concerned that the ABIM is attempting medical censorship of my cited statements made in Senate testimony and national TV interviews and using intimidation tactics including threatening unprecedented reprisal."

McCullough did not elaborate on how ABIM was attempting to censor him, and he did not clarify the discrepancy in Kirsch's report and Johnson's tweet suggesting he lost his credentials. However, it appears the process to revoke McCullough's credentials has been put in motion.

A closer look at ABIM's disciplinary sanctions policy revealed that the process for revoking a physician's certification can take months, and a physician is allowed to retain their board certification until the disciplinary recommendations made by its Credentials and Certification Committee (CCC) are made final.
