Critics Review
“This is an invaluable book for anyone who has ever wondered why, in recent years, we’ve constantly lurched from one ‘crisis’ to the next, and how all of these ‘crises’ are related. With vivid and gripping detail, Mind Viruses reveals how the American republic has been divided by a contagion of irrational ideas and fervently held false beliefs. As a medical doctor, I found the chapters on the COVID-19 vaccines and transgender medicine especially illustrative of how science can be hijacked by special interests promoting deranged thought. A must-read for all concerned citizens who wish to restore sanity to our public forum.”
—Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
“Mind Viruses is a compelling diagnosis of what has weakened the West, and what we need to do to get our social and political health back. While our medical profession constantly proclaims the need to vaccinate our bodies against infectious diseases, ‘We the People,’ and especially our children, are left defenseless against the mental contagions that have proliferated in recent years. Mind Viruses reveals with anatomical precision how we are constantly being manipulated, and how to protect our minds from the contrived social scourges and cultural plagues of our era. A compelling read that brings to mind the old African proverb, ‘If there is no enemy within, the enemy outside can do us no harm.’”
—Ryan N. Cole, MD
