VIRUSES EXIST.

_Computer code gets computer viruses (whether accidentally or intentionally) and it makes sense that genetic code should be prone to getting biological viruses in a similar way.

_I got into studying natural health in 1977 via Natural Hygiene, which was promoted mostly by Dr. Herbert M. Shelton and later by Dr. Virginia Vetrano and T.C. Fry. I continued to follow Natural Hygiene until 1996, when my health deteriorated on a vegan diet, which they promoted. T.C. Fry had argued that virus theory is absurd because he compared it to a flea on an elephant taking over the elephant to duplicate a mountain of more fleas out of the elephant's body. I never completely bought that position, but it seemed plausible.

CHANGED MIND.

_Starting in 1997 I red books by Dr. Leonard Horowitz about AIDS, Ebola, CJD, prions etc and I gathered that viruses are real.

_On Bitchute.com just a couple months ago I saw a short video interview of Dr. Tom Cowan in which he discussed Dr. Harold Hillman's findings that microbiology is erroneous because stains, centrifugation, electron microscopy etc produce artificial formations in cells and tissues that are not natural parts of living tissues. Viruses are imaged with electron microscopes, but they heat specimens with bombardment of electrons, which fries them, so they are bound to be greatly distorted, maybe comparable to the difference between a live human body and a corpse that's been around for a while.

_I made a post on this matter, called Is Microbiology Sound, at https://ilki.substack.com/p/is-microbiology-real . It includes links to some of Dr. Hillman's videos and his papers and to an MIT news article from 2009 about the damaging effects of electron microscopy.

_Dr. Cowan used Dr. Hillman's findings to support his view that viruses are not real, but I continue to think viruses are real for the reason I stated at the beginning as well as because of the great amount of info that seems to be known about viruses & diseases. I think viruses are generally only dangerous when our nutrition is lacking or our genome is damaged. However, it seems plausible that viruses could evolve or be weaponized to become severely parasitic or predatory, killing their hosts. There seems to be good evidence that AIDS viruses, Ebola etc are weaponized and Covid seems to be a less severe weaponized virus.

_One of the smartest people I know of, James Sloane, says cancer is caused mostly by viruses. He also says ozone therapy from a cold corona ozone generator is the best treatment for most cancers, but he also says the herb chaparral is very good for cancer. Also, Pau d'Arco etc. Dr. Eric Berg in some Youtube videos says cancer is usually caused by damage to mitochondria. So there's lots of food for thought.

Attention Scientists!

I've not received any answers for this question I posted on Igor's last article.

hCG is the hormone that women begin to produce in large quantities after becoming pregnant. This is the particle that pregnancy tests detect.

So which particle is bigger? The hCG hormone? Or COVID19 Virus?

(Hint: It’s a 50 to 1 size ratio, and the COVID particle is the fat one.)

We can isolate, purify, and then re-inject hCG in repeatable experiments to satisfy Koch’s postulates.

I've provided evidence with links in this article about the hCG isolation process.

https://boostershots.substack.com/p/the-no-virus-challenge-vs-the-no-83f

Are there any scientists out there on Igor’s blog who do hCG isolation for a living?

Or can anyone else refute the evidence I’ve provided about the isolation and purification of hCG from my previous article?

Where am I going wrong?

Why can’t we do this with a virus when it's 50 times bigger?

Well, Lanka has been trying for almost 30 years to get other scientists to answer the glaring questions, and he's still not received one sincere reply. The inescapable conclusion is that the corruption has progressed to such a degree that there's virtually no genuine scientists. Everyone in academia, corporate medicine, and government are paid not to be scientists, but to say and produce what benefits their employers. This outcome was sealed when we allowed the Rockefeller cabal to completely take over and monopolize medicine.

VIRUSES DO NOT EXIST

_Boost., I'm not an expert. Are you? I'm interested in the answer to your question, but I don't know of any experts who may be willing to give the answer, if they know it. I think so-called "germ" theory and virus theory are likely correct in general. I don't think "germs" are the main cause of disease. I think malnourishment is the main cause. Another cause for some people is genetic defects.

_We all believe in parasites and predators, don't we? Predators can attack us, kill us and even eat us if they're interested. Parasites can invade our bodies in various ways and can cause disease or even fatality. I guess you'd agree that parasites can cause dysentery. I see no reason to think that some bacteria can't be parasites. Like H. pylori in the stomach, causing ulcers. Bacteria cause tooth decay and they can invade the circulatory system and end up about anywhere in the body, as well as the lungs, causing inflammation etc. Fungus can surely be parasitical as well. Toenail fungus. Candida can get into genitals and into the intestines. Most bacteria are friendly and harmless. Those in the intestines are vital to our survival. Some in the colon can be deadly if they get into our digestive systems.

_Virus can be defined as DNA or RNA fragments. By that definition, nearly everyone would agree that they exist, since cells often get damaged and the cell contents, including genetic material, can obviously get damaged in the process. But the question would be, can these fragments cause disease. Can the fragments be toxic? Anything can be toxic if it's in too great a quantity in cells or tissues. It can cause the death of cells and can even cause an entire organ to weaken or die. Can these viruses as genetic fragments cause disease by replicating? I think that's a more important question. I think the answer is yes, because genetic code is known to replicate, so it seems likely that some genetic fragments, i.e. viruses, should be capable of replicating under certain conditions. That's what I'm trying to get detailed answers to at https://ilki.substack.com/p/vax-questions-for-experts and https://ilki.substack.com/p/is-microbiology-real

I red' recently that the air everywhere even up to mountain tops contains thousands of viruses as proven in an experiment. The large majority of viruses are harmless, because they don't have the right genetic code to replicate, I think. So this is an example of my thinking that leads me to expect that viruses are real and can cause disease either by being toxic like any other toxin, or by replicating within susceptible cells, if they contain the right genetic code. Such viruses contain at least 20 thousand base "pairs" (nucleotides), so that may be enough for replication, I suppose. Some viruses may well not exist, like the rabies virus, according to Dr. Sam Bailey's video, which someone linked to earlier.

Len, I'm thrilled you're not an "expert". Because the "experts'" track record has been pretty abysmal for the last 2 years! We're all "experts" at this point as far as I'm concerned. Logic, data, repeatable experiments, open debate, and the pursuit of truth are the only things I value. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

But to answer your question directly, I'm not a virologist, scientist, or doctor. Boostershots is an eclectic group of anonymous free thinking individuals who are "experts" in undisclosed fields of study.

"We all believe in parasites and predators, don't we?"

Yes

"Predators can attack us, kill us and even eat us if they're interested."

Yes, but as far as "predators" go for us humans this is very rare, it happens in isolated incidents when the "predator" is starving, malnourished, or confused. And this doesn't include being "threatened", (like if you get too close to mama bear's cubs). We don't have the same worries that a mouse does.

"Parasites can invade our bodies in various ways and can cause disease or even fatality."

This is where we start to begin to have conflicting understandings. I do not think of parasites as little "mini predators". Here's an analogy that makes sense to me with regards to "parasites":

There are always roaches in all large apartment complexes. Roaches are always present, waiting for an opportunity, but they're not stalking you or "attacking" you like a "predator" would. They will not "invade" you apartment unless they can "take advantage" of the opportunity. You have to "invite them." If you have lots of cracks in your floors and walls, unsealed pipes, and most importantly, if you leave food/garbage out everywhere, then roaches will just waltz on in, (to your body)! These "parasites" are NEVER any match for a HEALTHY body, (a well kept apartment).

Even if your x2 adjacent neighbors live in filth with tons of roaches infesting every corner of THEIR apartments, those roaches won't ever "take over" YOUR body, (apartment), because YOU are healthy, (you seal all your wall cracks, you have sealed pipes, you never leave food out, and you clean your floors often). Your communal hallways have roaches, (not as bad as your nasty neighbors), but still not great. But YOUR Apartment is fine. At worse, you'll have a straggler roach run across your living room, but "your body" will swiftly go into action, and will take care of the roach with a newspaper, (hopefully not RAID or some other harmful chemical that your "body" doesn't like!) To put it simply, there's no way in hell that your neighbors "roaches" could ever "take down" your healthy apartment.

A group of boyscouts had an active day playing outside in the woods. Some of the boys even had a few major cuts and scrapes! Then all the boys jump in the lake to cool off. The lake is filled with quadrillions of dead things and bacteria and parasites and brain eating paramecia. But all the boys are happy, healthy, active, splashing water into each others faces, wrestling, ingesting huge gulps of lake water while doing so? But how? Why? How are the boys not all dead?! Open wounds in a lake of parasites?! How is this possible?

Because the boys are all very healthy. None of them are vitamin deficient. Just like for the roaches/apartment analogy, all the "roaches" of the "lake" were no match for the healthy boys, even with cuts and scraps. Vitamins are analogous the the apartments drywall, pipe sealant, vacuum cleaner, etc. In addition to "leaving food all over your apartment floor", i.e. (polluting your body with toxic food and chemicals), if your apartment, (body), is lacking things like caulk sealant, a vaccuum cleaner, trash bags, etc, it's hard to keep your apartment clean. Lacking Vitamin C, you get scurvey. Lacking pipe sealent? You get leaky rusty pipes".

 "Bacteria cause tooth decay and they can invade the circulatory system"

It's not the bacteria that's "attacking" your tooth or your blood. The bacteria is not even "parasitic", it's a level below, it is a true scavenger. It only consumes byproducts/wsateproducts you ate, and sometimes it is taking a toxic crap on you tooth because you polluted your body with bad sugary food that the bacteria eats as well.

In summary: Parsites, bacteria, fungus are all real, but NONE of them are "pathenogenic" like a "predatory" and certainly not "contagious" Viruses are completely made up fake unicorns to begin with.

"Virus can be defined as DNA or RNA fragments."

Naw dawg! What if you reversed it. Now think about this.

"DNA or RNA fragments can be defined as Viruses".

Really? We've got billions of cells dying inside of us all the time. It's totally normal. Or Body's are littered with dead cell debris, (including trillions of left over broken strands of DNA and RNA fragments from dead cells). Bacteria love to eat these organic pieces of baby food up. All bacteria are scavengers. Not a single species will ever "attack" you. Like a vulture, they will wait until you are dead before they start to eat you.

Leaky gut syndrome is another misunderstood and downright censored thing. We've got tons of bacteria in our gut which help us. But if they enter the bloodstream then they can cause problems. This only happens when the gut walls are damaged enough to allow the bacteria to leak into the blood.

"Can the fragments be toxic? Anything can be toxic if it's in too great a quantity in cells or tissues."

Natural dead cell debris is not "toxic". What can be toxic is the waste product of a small percentage of bacteria when they are forced to exists in a toxic environment. Like tetanus. Our bodies our littered with teens. It's fine...unless it's in an anaerobic condition, and then it mutates to rod form and THEN it "takes a toxic crap in you" which causes the serverve symptoms.

"Can these viruses as genetic fragments cause disease by replicating?"

Genetic fragments are waste products. They can't replaicte any more than a dead body can "replicate". Like frankenstein. It's fiction.

"Some viruses may well not exist, like the rabies virus, according to Dr. Sam Bailey's video, which someone linked to earlier."

Rabbies is a great rabbit hole to explore. Rabbles is nothing more than vitamin deficiency in dogs during the winter time. If dog's don't get the vitamins necessary to stay healthy and fend off the parasites that they normally can fend off, (or if the pipes in the apartment don't have sealent and are leaking and rusty), then that's why the dog appears to be "mad", when in fact the animal is just being agitated by the parasites and constantly nipping and salavatiing.

The "rabbid" dog lamented, If only there was some grass to eat under all this snow then I'd have my vitamins and be healthy!"

(Dogs naturally eat a bit of grass for nutrients).

You seem like a free thinker Len. Whether I challenged you to keep searching for more information or not, I'm glad you entered the open debate. DOnt' trust anything I say.

If you want to learn more, I recommend the first video in this article. I, as well as a lot of other "virus deniers", happen to think this is one of the best and most captivating for people who are just getting interested in the germ theory debate.

" I think so-called "germ" theory and virus theory are likely correct in general. I don't think "germs" are the main cause of disease. "

There is no virus theory. There is a hypothesis that has no evidence to support it. If you are arguing that germs are NOT the main cause when the hypothesis is that they ARE the main cause then you are trying to have it both ways. Claim there is viruses by shifting the goal posts only to help support criminal activities of poisoning. This is not something that is unimportant because there is actual deaths involved and if you are using fallacious arguments then it could be that you are a party to a crime. If you want to defend the existance of viruses and thus vaccines it needs to be more than oh I feel like computers have viruses or oh but they are not the main cause. This shows you are treating this like a joke or trying to muddy the water. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AQIm4fEJUM

So it's only allowed for people to have one of two views: either they can think germs cause disease or that terrain causes disease. Is that it? We're not allowed to think that both might cause disease? And if we do, we're scheming?

Booster - Thanks mucho for all your thought, analyses and writing on this subject. As a doctor of Natural Hygiene, I have been working with patients for >40 years. Have pretty much seen everything under the sun. Bottom line: Disease is a No Show in anyone who is well-nourished, well-rested, reasonably fit and balanced in mind and emotions. Always has been that way and always will be.

That said, as of today I'd say that the reality is 99.9% terrain theory and 0.1% germ theory. Your immune system is certainly incredibly effective in the work it does. Your immune system is the result of a billion years of natural evolution, during which time immune systems across all life forms have seen and dealt with everything imaginable... NATURALLY imaginable. And therein lies the key, I think.

All forms of life, existing in their NATURAL ideal state, are well equipped to handle everything they may encounter. As such, immune systems are primed to effectively and efficiently deal with all toxins and 'pathogens' they may encounter. But this only applies to life in its natural environment, as normally constituted. A natural, balanced ecosystem generates very few if any novel 'pathogens.'

So, if an immune system is suddenly exposed to a toxin or 'pathogen' that is completely off the charts of expected challenges, what happens?

99.9/100 times the immune system handles it, more or less. Your immune system IS finite, after all. Also, when exposed to novel irritants, there is a time lag btw first encounter and eventual effective disabling/elimination of the irritant, as the immune system quickly learns all the permutations of dealing with it. During that time lag, strange and possible destructive things can happen.

So, from my POV, there are the small and abnormally quirky situations where a healthy immune system may not be able to cope with a new/novel irritant/pathogen. At least theoretically, that's how I see it.

So where are potential new/novel 'pathogens/bacteria/viruses' coming from?

From radically imbalanced ecosystems, subsequently diseased animals and people, and an environment filled with all manner of abnormal, severely toxic substances. Now we add in the output of mad scientists who are blindly and ignorantly tinkering with the building blocks of life, creating VERY unnatural frankenmicrobes.

Even in this deranged case, all of Life continues desperately trying to right the wrongs as best it can. With some significant fraction of people, their immune systems cannot cope, and PART of the degenerative process can be attributed to the damage caused by toxic insult of the many novel forms of toxic detritus around and inside them.

Medicine, of course, focuses primarily on that PART, to the exclusion of real causes. Along with constantly playing on fear of invisible monsters. After all, fearfully focusing on that PART is where the money is.

BTW - Very good article that I think you'll find interesting. The number and variety of microbes is staggering... WAY beyond what I previously thought. The author is firmly of pro-virus persuasion. His info is fascinating: https://megasociety.org/noesis/200.pdf

Mitichondria are master controllers of the cell, as well as producers of 36/38 of its energy. A fascinating experiment was conducted a while back where healthy/normal ("non-cancerous") nuclei were transplanted into cancer cells after removing their damaged nuclei. All the healthy nuclei also became damaged as in typical cancer cells. Then they reversed the experiment and transplanted damaged, cancerous nuclei into healthy cells, and voilá, the chromosomes were repaired and the "cancer" nuclei became healthy! The difference? The cancerous cells had damaged, poorly functioning mitochondria, and the healthy cells had strong, healthy mitochondria. The cancerous state had nothing to do with the nuclei and everything to do with the health and functionality of the mitochondria. Healthy mitochondria repair damaged chromosomes in cancerous nuclei OR initiate apoptosis to kill the cell if the nuclear damage is beyond repair. Moral to the story? Cancer is all about cellular energy and healthy mitichondria, not bad DNA! Billions of cancer research dollars have been wasted "barking up the wrong tree" of DNA damage instead of studying the real cause of cancer: cellular energy deficit.

Unfortunately, the "useless medical industry" is not useless! It is VERY useful for the transfer of obscene amounts of wealth from the population to the High Priests of Medicine who are part of the Globalist network that's infesting human society.

It is also very effective at population reduction and at making and keeping the majority of the citizens of industrialized nations chronically ill since healthy people are not profitable. Healthy people also can live a long time and overstress the Social Security retirement system (and Medicare) and pension funds. People with chronic diseases typically die in a more timely manner, and since the medical system merely "treats" the symptoms of chronic conditions instead of curing them (by addressing and correcting the root cause[s]), "vulturine" Big Medicine continues to feed off of patients before finally killing them.

Also, it fools people into believing:

(1) that the allopathic Big Pharma-controlled medical system is the "go to" solution for all health concerns.

(2) that they "have" a medical condition (that is actually a collection of symptoms given an official name). That is, they "own it" or internalize it, programming the subconscious mind for illness via the "nocebo effect" (the opposite of placebo).

(3) that doctors "know best" and must be idolized and deferred to ("white lab coat syndrome").

(4) that the treatment recommended by their doctor must be the best possible solution to their problem because doctors are really smart and stay abreast of the latest medical research/knowledge.

(5) that pharmaceutical drugs cure illnesses and it is in the patient’s best interests to take whatever their doctor prescribes, no matter how many or for how long.

I doubt that viruses are trying to do anything except deliver their genetic payload to hijack cellular protein synthesis machinery to make more copies of themselves. Doing that sets up the cell for destruction, so it certainly isn't trying to "correct things"!

And yes, extra vitamins C and D, and zinc, are important, but supplementing isn't a simple issue. You also need magnesium and vitamin A and other things for the vitamin D to work, and you need a balanced dose of vitamin K2 also. The zinc needs to be balanced with copper or you will make a (very common) copper deficiency worse. But magnesium blocks zinc absorption and so should not be taken at the same time, and only a limited amount of zinc can be absorbed at one time, so high doses must be divided. Same with vitamin C =take in frequent smaller doses. And the body requires other antioxidants such as vitamin E to "recharge" the depleted vitamin C after it does its job as an antioxidant, but must be taken as mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols, NEVER as the common cheap synthetic commercial form of E by itself: alpha tocopherol!

And few adults (except for pregnant or lactating women) need supplemental calcium, which is usually adequate in the diet, and calcium competes with magnesium for absorption, so taking calcium tends to create a magnesium deficiency (and CONTRIBUTE to poor bone health!). Etc. Etc.!!! And yet, modern commercial foods are nearly universally deficient in essential nutrients, so supplementation is required by nearly everyone!

Sorry, but your representation of Cowan's message on virology isn't even remotely accurate. You completely ignore his central, critical point, which is that no so-called human virus has ever been isolated. Considering there's no virus to begin with, talking about supposed problems with looking at a "virus" with an electron microscope is ridiculous.

Your argument that viruses are real because computers get viruses, and "because of the great amount of info that seems to be known about viruses and diseases" is fine if you're satisfied with that, but it's sharing faith and belief, not science.

Interesting that you pinned this comment to the top, Igor. It seems there's an agenda. Too bad you can't see that if what passes for scientific truth progresses further toward becoming a matter of popular approval, science and reason cease to exist, and we're headed much deeper into darkness as a civilization.

Your first paragraph makes no sense. A computer does not get a virus. They call it that as a metaphor. This is used because we are all familiar with the term. The term has been ubiquitous. So it was adopted for computers. But it’s simply an analogy; it can’t then be used to draw other conclusions about it.

Okay, you got me started, so here goes!:

I watched both of these videos.

First comment: did you notice the attitudes of the presenters? Hardly "scientific". One must be cautious when someone is not merely presenting information but is condescending, snarky, and profusely using an ad hominem attack strategy. What is their agenda? Cui bono?

Secondly, I am not a regular follower of Dr. Berg's work, and I know nothing about him personally. I have come across his videos at times. Regarding the claims he is into Scentology, if true that does make me suspicious of his judgement, but following a cult doesn't mean a person cannot also study a subject and be knowledgeable about it.

Many years ago, out of curiosity I looked into Scientology after encountering some Scientologists. The developer, L.Ron Hubbard, was best known as a science fiction writer, and to me his ideas that form the basis of Scientology are pure science fiction. I tried reading his book, "Dianetics" once, and didn't get very far. I found it to be "unreadable" because it appeared to me to be completely made-up out of "thin air" nonsense. I later heard (and I don't remember where) that he admitted that he just made it all up. I guess that shouldn't be surprising coming from a writer of science fiction.

I don't know who "Dr. Leo" is, but I'm guessing he is a vegan who has bought into the "Religion of Veganism", judging from his misinformation about meat. This is, of course, the "religion" adopted by the Globalists to justify their anti-human Global Warming "climate change" agenda to make humans unhealthy, incapable of producing healthy children, and dumbed down to make them easier to control and exterminate.

Much of "science" these days is agenda-driven and is, frankly, "junk science". We have certainly seen that surrounding COVID and the "vaccines"! One has to look at who's funding the research. Who is making claims such as "scientific concensus"? (There really is no such thing.) What opposing views are being censored? (THOSE are most likely to be "the truth"!) And what scientists or dictors are being attacked and demonized for their views? Again, most often the ones disseminating "the truth". (I put "the truth" in quotes because science is never "settled", and our knowledge base is constantly expanding as new research modifies or replaces older ideas.)

I could spend many hours throughly dissecting Leo's arguments, but there is certainly no room here, nor will I take the time. However, I will say that much of what he is presenting are very outdated and thoroughly disproven ideas. He is also "cherry picking" out partial "truths" to try to support his position. For instance, there has been a widely disseminated idea that saturated fat is unhealthy. This was based on junk "research" funded by Big Ag to promote the use of corn oil (cheap, plentiful byproduct that needed a profitable use) and other cheap industrial seed oils. A researcher named Ancel Keys was funded by industry to conduct research "proving" that animal fat is unhealthy and causes heart disease. The entire enterprise was fraudulent, but it formed the basis for the demonization of animal fats (and later, animal products in general —a key position of the Globalists). It was the entire basis for the push to get people to believe in, and consume, polyunsaturated seed oils, promoted as healthy-sounding "vegetable oils", probably the single worst dietary change in history and responsible for untold millions of deaths and disabilities! It is a "toss up" whether the worst thing you can eat is sugar or seed oils, but probably the winner in the "worst" category would be the oils. The most dangerous thing about a junk food diet is the high quantities of oils in all forms, including hydrogenated versions.

There is zero valid evidence that saturated fats from healthy grass fed animals eating the way they were intended, and not full of antibiotics and hormones, is harmful. IF saturated fat actually caused heart disease WE WOULD ALL BE DEAD because guess what kind of fat predominantly exists in our bodies? Saturated! It HAS to be, because it is stiffer and STABLE, necessary qualities to make up most of our cell membranes and stored energy in adipose tissue. Every time someone loses weight, or just burns some of their stored fat for energy, they are using primarily saturated fat, just as if they had just eaten and digested it!

There are SO many misconceptions out there. Propaganda, really. Fat and heart disease? "Clogged" arteries? Arteries are not water pipes like the plumbing in your house. They don't "clog up" with deposits filling them up like hard water mineral deposits in pipes! And they definitely don't clog up with "cholesterol deposits"! If you still believe that, you are very badly misinformed. Cholesterol does NOT "cause" heart disease! (And carbon dioxide is NOT a "pollutant" that "causes" global warming!) Very bad people are promoting a huge amount of nonsense to push through very destructive agendas!

Cholesterol is not bad! It is an extremely important molecule that makes up a significant portion of our brains, and is a critical component of all cell membranes, the precursor molecule for many of our hormones including vitamin D, a detoxifier, and is very important for immune system function. And guess what? The people in the quartile with the highest cholesterol LIVE THE LONGEST!!!!

Eggs? Probably the most complete single food. Very healthy, except possibly for a slightly higher than ideal level of arachidonic acid, but even that is not the bad actor that some sources try to make out that it is! Nutrition and biochemistry are SOOOO complex!

These are just a few examples of how off base is Dr. Leo, and that what he is espousing is mostly soundly disproven by recent advances in nutritional research! Conversely, almost everything that Dr. Berg presented in those video excerpts was the most up to date science. But again, knowledge is constantly being added to. Current ideas will be expanded upon in the future, and some will be supplanted. But that is what science all about, not personal attacks and snarky attitudes! And why is he picking on chiropractors, anyway? They sometimes do a lot more good for people than traditional M.D.s, those drug-pushing flunkeys for Big Pharma who mostly know almost nothing about nutrition OR health, just disease diagnosis and maintenance! Yes, I can have "an attitude" too!

"This is, of course, the "religion" adopted by the Globalists."

The allocation of most all land and vast sums of subsidies to put cheap flesh on peoples plates says otherwise. You are making an argument that is the exact oppositite of the reality of the food being pushed on people. Why do you think youtube would be sending Berg so many viewers if they wanted to promote veganism? Reality is that flesh eating has been pushed for thousands of years and is now being pushed to the even greater extremes of keto and the carnivore diet. Take Paul for example who told Christians to eat what ever they found in the market without raising any concerns.

" what scientists or dictors are being attacked and demonized for their views? Again, most often the ones disseminating "the truth"."

T Colin Campbell was misrepresented by the BBC for example but there is also lots of people calling vegans "soy boys" etc. which I would say is demonization:

Flesh eating is not "being pushed for thousands of years". It has been the NORMAL DIET of humans for hundreds of thousands of years. Not agricultural products. Not grains. Not soybeans. Certainly not seed oils and sugar.

"The allocation of most all land". Not true. Worldwide almost all grazing is done on land unsuitable for crop production. Much of the planet cannot be farmed because of topgraphy, shallow or poor soils, salinity, drought, or other problems. Most cropping systems as currently practiced are unsustainable because of soil degradation and erosion, irrigation that adds salinity to the soil, the drawing down and destruction of aquifers via very deep wells harvesting ancient and non-replaceable water, loss of biodiversity, use of pesticides, runoff of toxins and fertilizers destroying aquatic habitats, etc. Animal agricultural allows the most nutritious foods for humans to be produced from cellulosic plant matetials unusable/undigestible by us from land that is otherwise unusable.

The Globalist plan is to kill off the rest of us with ultra-processed utterly fake "foods" made from grain, soybeans, seed oils, and insects. A recipe for rampant disease and suffering, lowered intelligence, and Mass Depopulation.

T. Colin Campbell manipulated the data to supoort the Globalist agenda . . . and, of course it was in China, with the help of the Communist Chinese. Gee, what a surprise!

If it was so healthy how come the red states were getting 'covid' more than the blue ones? The keto is what is making people sick not any insects.

lemme just paste this here ;-)

i can see what the problem is here : if you look at this cdc linked paper on the methods of "isolation" https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/6/20-0516_article : - and i quote : "Cell Culture, Limiting Dilution, and Virus Isolation

We used Vero CCL-81 cells for isolation and initial passage. We cultured Vero E6, Vero CCL-81, HUH 7.0, 293T, A549, and EFKB3 cells in Dulbecco minimal essential medium (DMEM) supplemented with heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (5% or 10%) and antibiotics/antimycotics (GIBCO, https://www.thermofisher.comExternal Link). We used both NP and OP swab specimens for virus isolation. For isolation, limiting dilution, and passage 1 of the virus, we pipetted 50 μL of serum-free DMEM into columns 2–12 of a 96-well tissue culture plate, then pipetted 100 μL of clinical specimens into column 1 and serially diluted 2-fold across the plate. We then trypsinized and resuspended Vero cells in DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 2× penicillin/streptomycin, 2× antibiotics/antimycotics, and 2× amphotericin B at a concentration of 2.5 × 105 cells/mL. We added 100 μL of cell suspension directly to the clinical specimen dilutions and mixed gently by pipetting. We then grew the inoculated cultures in a humidified 37°C incubator in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 and observed for cytopathic effects (CPEs) daily. We used standard plaque assays for SARS-CoV-2, which were based on SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) protocol"

- do you see how many antobiotics and chemicals they use? how can you be sure what comes out is an isolated virus? instead of some toxic crap, or even some mutated rna?

to be honest i do not know christine, but if you really want you should seek out Dr Andrew kaufman : he will be willing to debate on video. and that should be fascinating to be honest. give him a call.

What comes out is not an isolated virus. It is decaying material. The same experiment can be conducted without adding any swab specimens. No supposedly infected samples added and it still produces the same decaying material.

But I'll admit the "no such thing as a virus" people have some good points. I think there is some kind of dance between terrain and pathogen that we don't fully understand yet and more study is needed. Kind of a weasel opinion, I know, but I feel like that's where we are.

Expand full comment

He does a "good job" because he says what you want to hear?

I watched the video, and he completely ignores the central point made by the virology challengers whom Steve has ridiculed. Part of his explanation is accurate, but his critical omission is that the previous SARS genomes that he says Cov-2 is similar to are also all computer simulations, with not one of them ever isolated or sequenced. If you cared to follow the trail backward, there's not one virus ever that's been isolated or sequenced. The propagandistic photos they show don't change that fact. Every 'virus' genome in the Genebank is a computer simulation of a theoretical 'virus'. So his argument boils down to using previous fictitious virus genomes to supposedly prove that the newest fictional genome is something real. And he adds emphasis with 'these sequencing machines are really high-tech and amazing so you should have faith in what I'm saying...'.

The video may be impressive to those who haven't put in the work to understand the science issues, but he says nothing credible to refute the fact that no human virus has ever been isolated or sequenced, and therefore has not been proven to exist.

Really well put — when I learned all virus sequencing was done in silica using modeling algorithms, I decided the whole field was smoke and mirrors. Another iteration of NASA.

Expand full comment

Thanks. Indeed, it just takes some basic reasoning skills. Every person doesn't have to learn virology jargon and read all of the published research to realize it's a con.

When I first learned that all of the sequencing was in-silica (the virology term for 'in a computer', for the newbies), and that the alleged 'virus' particles are never found in sick people, only in the lab cultures of dying cells (usually monkey kidney cells), it was obvious to me that the whole field of virology is fraud. If they could find real virus particles in sick people, they would isolate and sequence them directly, and computer simulations would be useless.

It was many years later that I decided I must know 100%, and I painstakingly learned the jargon and then followed the published research backward. Of course, that confirmed what the obvious, basic facts already indicated.

Expand full comment

Yes — the computer modeling part is the deal breaker. If you can’t isolate, image, and show replication in sick people, all you have is fantasy. As valid as gender identity. BTW, I believe Dr Cowan (sp?) et al have convinced Michael Yeadon that viruses are a fiction — that’s a meaningful convert!

these are the same arguments atheists use to prove God doesn't exist.

much of what we call science is derivative. it does not offer us the direct experience of truth or proof.

however not understanding something does not mean it does not exist.

Expand full comment

Irrelevant analogy, Matt. Anyone who claims they can prove anything does NOT exist isn't using reason. And that's not the virology challengers' argument.

Indeed, most of modern science is derivative, or deductive. The obvious problem with that is that if one layer in the foundation is fallacy, then the entire structure above is fallacy. And that's why we have massive cons like virology that people insist is 'scientific'.

For the above reason, the deductive or derivative process isn't actually reasoning. It introduces a fatal amount of faith. At any point in history, scientists and philosophers are responsible for fact-checking the whole structure they're standing on, or they're not practicing reason or the scientific process. As virology demonstrates, the whole 'scientific' establishment is refusing that responsibility, because it's inconvenient.

When the rare person like Stefan Lanka comes along and takes that responsibility seriously, and does some investigating to make sure the foundation he learned at the university is sound, he's stunned to find out that the whole thing is built on BS.

What the virology challengers ARE saying is that no virus has ever been proven to exist, since none have ever been isolated and sequenced from a sick person. It's deceptive to twist that and claim we're saying viruses have been proven to NOT exist.

When someone makes a claim that something invisible exists and is making everyone sick, and then forms a global monopoly in partnership with militant governments to take over people's lives under the guise of controlling this claimed thing, they'd damn well better be able to prove scientifically that their claims are real. They have not.

And it's stunning to see 99% of the population lining up to defend the Rockefeller/government monopoly, instead of joining those demanding the scientific proof.

I appreciate the thoughtfulness of your response. I share your distain of the medical/pharma cartel and agree that the world has never been closer to a totaltarian takeover of human sovereignty. We must be our own advocates and fight for our health freedom. I can understand why many people think the "whole system" is BS. However, I agree with Steve Kirsch in that it is unproductive to oversimplify science and make counterclaims that are so unreasonable (and just as unproven as conventional claims) that they taint the well and make fools of those in a movement that is desperatly seeking health freedom.

It is completely unhelpful to see discussuions all over the web littered with bold statements like COVID IS NOT REAL, THE VIRUS HAS NOT BEEN ISOLATED!!!. It paints the movement with tin-foil hattery and I often wonder if Big-Pharma itself is not paying trolls to push this nonsense.

It is true that we do not have the technology to view a virus in-situ. It is true that PCR does not identify a virus. But, to conclude that SARS-COV2 does not exist based on empirical limitations is a weak argument at best. As, I keep on saying... to unseat one hypothesis in science you have to have an alternative to replace it. We know NIH, Ralph Barric, DARPA and Fauci were in a mad race to create bioweapons and the vaccine cure for them... for both national defence and insane profit. We know that the epicenter of the phenomenon of COVID started at Wuhan China, only a few hundred yards from where this research was being carried out. From there "it" spread from human to human contact all over the world. To deny the contagious aspect of COVID19 or the contagious aspect of numerous world pandemics throughout history is preposterous.

If we want justice for the crimes commited by the State and Pharma companies we have to direct our energy at the right problem and not make fools of ourselves.

Steve, please note my comment near the beginning:

"I'm in the "have no idea" category. I made a comment in Karen Bracken's substack a few days ago where she posted comments by Poornima Wagh (who claims there is no virus). I suggested she (Karen) reconsider her position and read Steve Kirsch's substack where he said he tried to phone Poornima several times and she never called him back. Karen came back to me with: 'Steve Kirsch did not try multiple times to get an interview with Poornima. She called him 3 times and he never called her back. Understand she is exposing the criminals and we all should know by now when someone doesn’t stick to the script then go after that person to erase them and to destroy them. Someone posts a hit piece and then the rest of the click baiters post it on their sites. Believe what you want.' So, we have a he said/she said! Maybe Steve can show his phone log to prove his attempts to reach her. I have no inside to Steve. Can anyone do that?

This then causes the receiver a need to expel the original toxic material plus his own now dead cell. And so he coughs or sneezes. More like an allergic reaction to a sick person rather than transmitting a disease.

Then there's the issue of bio-resonance. Being within a sick person's energy field (said to extend a minimum of six feet from the body) can influence your own health in profound ways. The longer the contact, the greater the "entrainment" to achieve a more balanced rhythm/sympathetic resonance between the two bodies. Interesting number, that 6. Wasn't that the suggested social distancing standard during "the evil COVID pandemic"? Did "they" not want us to be in close contact because "they" know this resonance phenomenon operates equally well when one is in the presence of healthy people? Just sayin'...

The size of auric fields allegedly varies greatly. Some people have huge fields, but I can "pick up on" peoples' energy from quite a distance regardless.

The 6 feet antisocial distance was made up out of thin air. Supposedly it was as far as they thought they could get away with imposing, without people balking at it too much, and as far as was feasible to implement inside of buildings. Real "scientific", huh? Like ALL of Fauci’s fake "science".

There will always be those who deny the effects of faith on disease. I once took a class called Mental Hygeine and the professor stated that primitive people who believe in witch doctors or shamans do about as well as those who believe in Allopathic medicine. Similarly, many people scoff at the efficacy of homeopathic medicine. Yet it is my personal experience that, after suffering from airborne allergies for 73 years, I discovered a homeopathic remedy that made the mucus disappear. Placebo effect? Who cares.

As a CPS Worker, I often found my mind behaving oddly when I was forced to interact with paranoid schizophrenics. Was it my fear or was it the auras of these sick individuals that caused mental feedback in my brain?

We live in a spiritual universe disguised as physical. Just as quantum physics has proven that nothing makes sense at a micro level, we must accept the fact that very little makes sense at the macro level.

Physicists have been conducting experiments for well over a century that come up with pretty unexplainable results from the perspective of Newtonian Physics. It just keeps getting more baffling for them, maybe BECAUSE nothing actually exists besides consciousness, so yes, things can be quite maleable and "squirrelly" and not follow what they think "makes sense". But I maintain that NOTHING makes sense! That what DOES make "sense" would be that nothing existed, anywhere, ever, and that the entire universe was one big, empty, dark, cold NOTHING! How can there be consciousness? How can a universe exist? How is it that we are able to experience anything, including that we do exist? THAT is what makes no fundamental sense. And THAT means that nothing else HAS TO make sense, either, because you can't construct "sense" on a foundation or premise of senselessness.

If you are in a sufficiently diseased state and after due diligence are convinced that some product or therapy actually does treat your dis-ease then go ahead make an exception to the rule.

I NO LONGER BELIEVE IN VIRAL THEORY OF DISEASE. I came to this conclusion on my own after years of research and before it became a popular topic of discussion. I focused more on proper nutrition and as a result came to understand what the primary underlying cause is.

As far as illnesses traveling through families, as a mother who raised 4 children, I can tell you that isn’t always true in most cases. It does happen, but let me explain below.

What leads to illness and disease is nutritional deficiencies that make us susceptible to developing something or “catching” something. For instance, I always ate and fed my children, all (mostly) healthy adults now. Because my children were rarely nutrient deficient, they didn’t get sick a lot, but it did happen. I rarely got sick when they were and could trace my illness back to either eating poorly, failing to supplement adequately or lack of proper sleep, sunshine or exercise.

Mostly, but not always, nutritional deficiencies travel through families, often bcz families tend to have the same dietary habits or patterns. Long standing nutritional deficiencies often lead to “genetically inherited diseases” run in families. It can take several generations to repair a severe nutritional deficiency in a family line.

Families and communities also tend to get exposed to toxins in groups, so that can lead to illness or disease. Foods are largely seasonal, sun exposure is seasonal depending on where one lives. We all should know by now how nutrient deficient foods are today, particularly those grown from commercial farming practices. Even organic non gmo foods are not as nutrient dense as 4-5 decades ago. Essentially, we are all nutrient deficient today in some form or fashion.

I used to develop symptoms of depression and low energy in the winter months when I lived up north. It is known as SADD or Seasonal Affective Disorder. However, having moved back to Florida 10 years ago, I do not have this issue as long as I spend time in the sunshine regularly. I learned several years after moving up north that if I kept my vitamin D levels high by taking about 30,000iu daily of D3 w K2 and/or going tanning 2-3 times a week, I could prevent developing symptoms of SAD. It never did not work. It has also worked for everyone who I’ve shared this information with and who does the same.

Another factor is the toxic exposures we have. Vaccines are a huge problem. They’re not only highly toxic, they cause severe and rapid depletion of nutrients in the body that further exacerbate susceptibility to and development of illness and disease. Toxic assaults cause the body to go into overdrive to correct the problems as rapidly as possible to return us to good health. When the nutrients aren’t available, the body can’t do its job to make that happen. With children, they’re under constant assault from regular vaccine visits (aka well child visits) to the pediatricians office. They’re also largely fed crap diets at home and at school. Little wonder they get sick so much. Unvaccinated, homeschooled children generally have robust good health.

The body is an amazing machine. It is built using nutrients. It certainly isn’t built using toxic chemical food and drugs. Our bodies always strive to keep us in good health. It can only do that properly when it has adequate nutrients.

Deficiencies and toxins drive disease. Parasites and molds can also drive disease. We really need to stop parroting the narrative of the pharmaceutical and medical industries. The longer we continue to carry water for these criminals, the longer we will continue to fund our own demise.

You just explained terrain theory. I agree with that.

But how do you explain that groups of people getting are getting the same disease that seems infectious? And that it "goes around"? That doctors can say, yeah there is a nasty flu going around that produces your specific symptoms.

Expand full comment

Great question! Did you know that we really don't know how, specifically, atoms work or even what they look like? We have the model that we were all taught in Chemistry with all the little electrons orbiting around the ball of protons and neutrons, but most physicists are pretty sure that model is way too simplistic--it's much more complex than that.

But working from a flawed model doesn't mean that we can't do effective chemistry, its just that there is a black box we don't really fully understand where our inputs go and expected outcomes happen, but we really don't know what's happening in there. We've got lots of similar models regarding things like health, too.

Science works from models all the time and periodically somebody comes along and points out that the model isn't working anymore. Happened to Newton's basic laws. Newer observations come along (like Particle Physics) that start to question what had been accepted science for many years. Einstein was reportedly deeply disturbed by the ramifications of quantum mechanics ("God doesn't play dice with the universe") but wishing something to be true doesn't mean it is.

Now this line of reasoning might suggest to some that I'm arguing in support of Germ Theory. But actually I've moved to the camp that says there are some fundamental flaws in the Germ model. Turns out the model we all have been taught has some glaring holes in it. Something else is going on that is far more integrative than the simplistic "get a shot every year and you'll be fine" model. In fact, it's becoming glaringly obvious that the commercial ramifications associated with Germ Theory are driving "solutions" that are much more harmful than we have accepted for years. We've reached a tipping point, both in terms of money and individual health, that suggests this approach is no longer sustainable. It never was, actually, but now the mound of evidence has risen to a level where we can begin to see that problems, and COVID, for many of us, was the straw that broke the camel's back. Something is REALLY wrong with the favored model.

The terrain theory proponents are actually offering a much more integrated and elegant solution that, when applied, leads AWAY from commerce and side-effects and toxicity and back toward what we all, in our heart, have known: Health and well-being doesn't (yea, CAN'T) come from a hypodermic needle. Dis-ease is more about what we've done to ourselves than any "germ." THEY are not the villians here, WE are.

Look around you on the street everyday. You don't have to be a doctor to see that people, as a whole, are profoundly unwell. Obesity is rampant along with stressed lifestyles that we all know in our heart are toxic to human wellness. Money and greed are huge drivers of our sickness, but so is ego and ruthless pursuit of What I Want, the rest be damned. Relationships are in tatters--we fight and scream and accuse each other instead of working on what we know is Wrong With Me. Can you look in the mirror and honestly say that you are well?

And then we run to the altar of Medicine. Make us well, priest! Fix our problems with pills, injections and therapies. But NEVER tell ME to do something like change my diet or daily habits!

Terrain theory, as I understand it, is attempting to address the root causes of human suffering.

Hint: It's us.

Right on!

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Now the evidence is coming out "fast and furious" that vaccinations are accompanied by a whole host of immunological problems like antigenic priming and overstressing the immune system.

All biologic processes require energy and resources, and if the body expends its resources creating useless, "out-of-date" antibodies, it has less ability to make newer "models" when challenged with a new or mutated pathogen. And then you have the extremely harmful COVID bioweapon "vaccines" that cause production of bioweapon spikes that actually damage the immune system and destroy T-cells and Toll-like Receptors that are crucial to protection from pathogens and cancers. Can we say, "CRAZY"?

Expand full comment

Do you know how the spike protein causes replication of itself? I don't understand how organisms can survive if they go around replicating harmful proteins. I can understand replicating a few to show to immune cells, but why would they just keep replicating them with wild abandon?

Expand full comment
Sep 9, 2022·edited Sep 9, 2022

The spike proteins can't replicate themselves. They are not viruses. Viruses are packets of genetic material (either RNA or DNA) that is wrapped up in an envelope that contains a mechanism for getting it inside of cells. As soon as it injects its genetic material, those get picked up by the cell because it can't tell the difference between instructions coming from a virus and its own cell's "blueprint". The material then gets taken to the protein-assembling "factory", the ribosomes, where the complete viral package is built.

The "vaccines" do something different. They are packages of genetic material that only codes for a slightly modified version of the viral spike protein. It is carried inside of lipid (fatty) envelopes, which are able to directly penetrate through the fat-based membranes of cells.

In the case of the Pfizer and Moderna shots, the "lipid nanoparticles" go into the cells and deliver their RNA payloads, which get taken up and replicated like for any RNA blueprint, but with a "twist". The RNA in the "vaccines" is not real RNA that would normally instruct the cell to make ONE copy and then self-destruct, reminiscent of the "Mission Impossible" T.V. show's recorded instructions. Instead, the synthetic RNA contains a different chemical that prevents the RNA from being stopped after just one copy is made, and it tricks the cell into churning out an endless stream of spikes that then exit the cells, some intact and some chopped up by the cell's defense mechanism that identifies foreign particles.

This is the huge problem with the "vaccines": there is no "off switch". The shots trigger an unknowable amount of spikes to be produced for an unknowable length of time. And when they are first injected, there is no telling where they will end up, because they can readily cross the blood brain barrier and cause severe neurological damage; they can go to the ovaries in high amounts and cause hormonal disruptions, sterility, and/or ovarian cancer; and they or the spikes they cause to be made, attach to blood vessels and cause clots, heart muscle cells and cause myocarditis, nerve cells and cause paralysis or other problems, and all kinds of other destruction! And wherever the "vaccine" lipid nanoparticles "land" they can keep turning out spikes for months, maybe even years, until that cell dies or is terminated. Also, some of the RNA from the shots writes itself into the DNA  master coding of cells to permanently change the genetic blueprint.

Yikes!

About the amino acid question, I don't understand what he/she means by "depletion". Inability to absorb them maybe? There can be gastrointestinal involvement with COVID as viral particles are shed from the nasal cavity and swallowed, which may account for the nausea/vomiting and diarrhea that can be present. Amino acids couldn't really be depleated from the body as a whole except through the mechanism of muscle wasting and catabolism of other tissues. They don't just leak out on their own or whatever. And it's possible to cause loss of amino acids from the blood through kidney damage and abnormal excretion of protein through the kidneys.

My first go-round with COVID was August 2020 when the original Wuhan strain might have still been circulating, or variants close to it like Alpha. There have been hundreds, at least, of slight variations to the original strain. The earlier ones were pretty bad and seem to have caused more lower respiratory involvement. I pre-loaded for four months on very high-dose D and then took a bunch of different supplements during it, plus Ivermectin. I had no apparent clotting issue, as both Vitamins C and D are pretty effective at preventing them, since my oxygen saturation never dropped. But the main thing (besides a cough) was a drastic "hit" to my energy production capacity that persisted into a "long COVID"-type situation but with no symptoms associated with clots such as headaches and "brain fog" or cardiac or lung impairment. It took me quite a while to come to the conclusion, by a process of elimination, that my mitochondria/ATP productionchad been quite impaired. It was only fairly recently that I learned that the viral spikes damage mitochondria and that can put them all into an energy shut-down mode (the "cell danger response"). So I started working on my mitochondria and now they are doing pretty well again.

"I've seen the same sickness travel through my family on many occasions."

I've seen 3 people bump into eachother in a crowded event wearing the same t shirt. Statistically it is hightly likely that you can flip dice with 10 heads in a row if you flip dice for long enough. If you are only paying attention to the times you saw someone with the same t shirt or when they had a cold then you are not counting all the other times that they didn't have the same t shirt or 'catch a cold'. That is a bias based on the belief in contagion when it is statistically likely to happen on occasion especially if there is cold weather or other factors increasing the odds at certain times. Perhaps the belief itself can increase the odds since there will be a conviction that they are highly likely to get sick. Something called a nocebo effect.

This is a key point. Virus or no virus, a healthy, well nourished body and a calm mind protects a person from disease which is what we all want. Reliance on vaccines and pharmaceutical drugs is going down the wrong path and they should be used very sparingly.

That shows how two questions are mixed - do viruses exist and the disease that they (do or don't) cause.

And how to treat (or manage or prevent) a disease is a third question (even if it can be inked to the previous questions).

Expand full comment

Exactly! Even if viruses had never been grown in cells and never been seen in electron microscopy, the diseases are real, and they spread AS IF by contageous pathogens.

I’m not sure they have been though. From what I’m reading from credible sources is no virus has ever been properly isolated. The way they claim to isolate one is literally ludicrous. I did not know this. I didn’t believe it when I read it, but I do now. If true then the entire narrative is brought into question. But pathogens transmitting from person to person happens. Whether it is a virus though might not be correct. Open skin to open skin though might be true and air borne upper respiratory might not be.

The moment you included “mind” you opened a completely new conversation, in which viruses may or may not have a roll. Maybe a calm mind IS the doing of certain viruses, allowing our bodies to not be susceptible to the harms of other viruses. I think it’s obvious that these packets of DNA exist.

The problems with the current vaccine products and politics are too large. In my estimation the harms significantly outweigh benefits. I would not raise a child where 40+ jabs were mandatory.

Particularly, given that since the mid-1980s manufacturers and dispensers have practically no legal liability for harms, I won't take any again until the situation changes, dramatically.

Are you saying there is no such thing as any sort of transmission at all? Virus or not? Bacterial or not? My experience of catching things tells me I catch nothing unless I’m run down. Colds and flus are certainly not easily transmissible, if they are at all. Many many times family members have been hacking and sneezing and I or my wife and I haven’t caught anything. I have had an alternative health practice for decades. I was for about 15 years full time at it seeing as many as 40 people a week. Many sick people. I NEVER caught anything! Why? However the Herpes things seems to be transmissible. OTOH....apparently 90+% of the population tests positive for having come into contact with Herpes. 1. We know the tests are meaningless. 2. If it is true 90+% have come into contact with it why don’t 90+% have it? It is possible skin to skin, open sore etc can transmit a pathogen. It might not be a virus though.

Heeee Hawww Heidi Heil Right on 🎯

Heidi,

There is no misconception that I'm aware of.

It is entirely possible for someone to fully embrace germ theory AND terrain theory simultaneously. This would be an extreme and unlikely example, but still possible.

Such a person would adhere to the notion that chemicals, EMF, psychological stress, diet, etc are all critically important to the safety of our health, just like any terrain theory supporter would agree with, yet this person would ALSO fully adhere to the notion that all of the "viruses" and other imaginary biological "pathogens" are "real" and harmful, in addition.

A mouse in the wildness must worry about foxes, hawks, and wolves, pollution, diet, stress, weather, etc, but the mouse never has to worry about "deadly unicorns who also eat mice", or "contagious" "viruses" for that matter.

The Virus Deniers are NOT claiming, "the germ believers never think about EMF and stress, diet etc, all they think about is the fake unicorn viruses!"

Believing in both terrain and germ theory simultaneously only causes more confusion and fear. One might think, "I've been poisoned from 60 different vaccines, I live in a place with lots of smog, I eat bad food, drink too much, stress too much, etc. Because my body, (terrain), is so unhealthy, I am now very susceptible to an imaginary "virus" or "pathogen" because my immune system is weak".

The VirusDenier's like myself disagree very strongly with this last statement. There's nothing to "catch" in the first place. This is the key to understanding. There is nothing to be afraid of. You can have the much needed close nurturing contact with any human family member who appears to be super contagious when in fact they are simply "deathly ill" from whatever terrain related issue they were afflicted with, be it a multitude of vaccines, antibiotics, chemicals, diet, etc. There's nothing to "catch" from them.

Your recent Substack post to Dr Michael Yeadon was very moving. I would also like to hear more from him about his change of stance. I can't imagine what you are going through as a loving and caring parent who is searching for understanding. You are wonderful for speaking your mind and supporting this open debate.

What if you think of it as an "interaction" with a cell instead of an "infection". Say a protein is floating around in the air, when it comes in contact with your cells, your cells react to it. That thing wouldn't need "food" to create energy, it wouldn't need "energy" at all. And maybe humans have evolved with these things around us, and this is just how we deal with these proteins, maybe some benefit us, maybe some waste our energy on their reproduction. Just a thought.

Similar to my understanding:

1. Viral particles float around

2. Passively enter the human body - say through the respiratory/alimentary system

3. Passively attach to receptors in the cells - put geometric locking aided by electrochemistry

4. The electrochemical environment at the site make the viral proteins to fold or transform enabling it to inject some particles into the cell - infection.

No need for self contained energy metabolism and use.

However it is news to me that virus particles have never been seen under a electron microscope! Is that for real?

I am not sure anyone is saying virus particles cannot be seen under a microscope. There are some that argue what that is we are seeing. Some say that we are seeing some protein the body produces or is waste product of some reaction. The argument is - are those proteins the cause or the result of the sickness.

Nothing is "seen" in the classical sense with an electron microscope/.x-ray crystallography. A computer programme constructs the image. Precisely how it does that is in the gift of the experts who initially write the computer code in the first place.

Does that in fact ever give an entirely accurate image of what is purportedly being "looked at".

They call everything COVID. COVID has every symptom. I think, not sure, but I think everyone who gets Herpes has the same Symptom. I don’t believe the vax sick are getting COVID. They are sick.

Which is then called ‘Long COVID’. We forget the symptom is an immune system that is expelling something, burning something up, or otherwise righting the body.

Not all bacteria can move, only ones with flagella or cillia.

Virions don't need energy because they aren't alive. They are more like nano-size machines. Machines that have mechanical devices to latch onto structures on the surfaces of cells and, sort of like being "spring loaded", deploy their genetic material contents into the cell. The cell machinery then is fooled into treating the foreign genetic material like its own and sets about following the foreign coding to replicate new complete viral packages and spew them out.

How do sperm move their tails if they have no mitochondria to generate energy?

Viruses do not "move" themselves to infect a cell. They float around, and when they bump into a cell, something about them burrows into the cell via molecular interaction, and then the virus reaches the nucleus where it releases its DNA to coopt the cellular machinery. There is no self-locomotion of a virus.

Better analogy is in chemistry; chemical reactions require some activation energy, but this can be provided through thermal (brownian motion). Protein binding happens at temps above absolute zero and so molecules and macromolecules are constantly 'bumping' against each other.

The physics of docking that happens when spike protein bumps up to a cell is a science in itself.

I agree. Bill Gates did a short 2 min video wherein he praised the spike protein as the means to help mRNA communicate with DNA. "This is the coronavirus [show model in hand]. In this peak [shows the spike protein] on its outside, is called the spike protein. It grabs onto the cells in your body, that have a particular receptor [mRNA] to get that cell to make millions of copies of this virus. The first time you're exposed to this virus it takes merely days for your immune system to realize that it's a bad thing. So how do we get the immune system to go faster? The idea of a vaccine is to give you an exposure to something that looks like this [shows pic], so you're getting your body to make a lot of antibodies that can take these viruses & actually kill them. There's over hundred different efforts making many different types of coronavirus vaccines. So, how do you make a vaccine? Usually you're injecting at least a part of the shape of the virus. Sometimes you do the whole virus but it's attenuated so it doesn't multiply too much. Sometimes you take a virus & you kill it. You won't get sick because they're not duplicating. What's typically done is you just take either a piece of the virus or just the spike, that thing on the surface, and you put it on something else, so there's no risk at all of causing a disease. One final way that's new & promising is called the RNA vaccine with RNA & DNA & instead of putting that shape in it [shows strand of DNA], the instructions in the code can make that shape" Seems Gates is less interested in the virus and more in changing our DNA.

"Spermatozoa utilize energy on motility, which is primarily in the form of intracellular ATP generated by oxidation of substrates, fructose, glucose, sorbitol, lactate, or pyruvate (Misro & Ramya, 2012) ."

Sperm do not contain mitochondria. ALL of the mitochondria in the embryo comes from the mother's ovum. Each human ovum contains about 100,000 mitochondria, the most in any human cell. It takes a tremendous amount of energy to develop an embryo, and each of the rapidly-dividing new cells needs an ample supply.

Hiya,

If you are bitten by a rabid dog and become ill- you don't pass the illnesses on to another person or animal, so it is not caused by an infectious or transmissible particle.

The observations are consistent with a neurotoxin produced by bacteria being present in the mouth of a malnourished and/or maltreated dog that are 'injected' into a person by the teeth of the dog.

All the symptoms of rabies are consistent with neurotoxic poisoning.

There is no evidence that a rabies virus exists, they have never found one, and rabies is not transmissible once bitten, but it would be very silly to allow myself to be bitten by a 'rabid' dog.

The Rabies virus travels up nerves from the bite site to the salivary glands and the brain. Bigger things like bacteria can't do that.

And the farther away from the brain is the location of the bite, the longer it takes for central nervous system symptoms to develop. For instance, if you get bitten on the head or neck, you will become symptomatic much sooner than if you get bitten on the foot.

Interesting, but her very strong bias introduces the possibility that she is cherry-picking her "evidence". She is certainly "slanting" her conclusions. This does not constitute a scientific presentation on the subject. Very reminiscent of so much of the COVID propaganda. Is her assumption correct? How much evidence FOR the existence of a Rabies virus did she NOT present? She sounds like she is from Australia (or New Zealand), countries that she admits have almost no Rabies, which means there is a very high probability that she has never even encountered the disease. So why the interest? Because of its rairity it maks a good subject for promoting a "virus denier" position? Disease with the symptoms of Rabies has been observed in many different mammals. If it were something else, say a prion disease, would it be more specific in its hosts?

Are Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease in humans, Mad Cow disease in cattle, Scrappies in sheep and goats, Chronic Wasting Disease in the deer family, and the "prion"-configuration in the COVID shots' spikes all caused by the same mis-folded prion material or is it usually species-specific?

Bell's Palsey is from viruses getting inside the Facial nerve, one of the "cranial nerves" that come directly from the brain, and they cause swelling and pressure that cuts off nerve transmission to that side of the face, usually temporarily.

Nerves are not electric wires. Fluid in the nerves, an aqueous electrolyte solution, conducts electricity just as any non-pure water can, only optimally (distilled water with zero minerals is actually a poor conductor). So it is the cytoplasm contents of the nerve cells that provides a hospitable environment for viruses, just as any cellular contents would. But nerve cells can be really long, counting the long extensions that the electrical signals move along— the axon and dendrites, like in the sciatic nerve that stretches from the lower spinal cord all the way to the foot.

Which came first, the virus or the sickness? Is a virus the cause of the sickness or is the presence of viral particles merely a symptom of feeling unwell? Are many, if not all, viruses simply the products of cellular detoxification (aka exosomes) which accumulate in extracellular fluids and make us feel bad? If so, what caused the systemic detox reaction to occur in the first place? The human genome seems filled with "viral" sequences, but what are they really? "Junk DNA"? Absurd! What are their actual functions, and why did Nature's evolutionary mechanisms and pressures ensure that they were accumulated and assiduously retained for succeeding generations?

These are questions virologists have done a miserable job of answering... recently, to the point of ignoring the questions entirely. The field of virology appears to me to be more cultish scientism at this point than pure scientific empiricism. As scientific disciplines go, virology is still in its infancy and will fail to mature into a respectable field of inquiry until it can be rescued from the vested monetary interests which have held it hostage for the past few decades.

I look forward to that day, as I'm an old, retired, marine microbiologist/medical researcher who still believes that one should gather facts and allow them to take you where they will.

Doesn't matter. All that matters is people are getting sick and governments are forcing therapies that not only don't work and are destructive. Therapies that do work, like ivermectin (an anviviral) are forbidden. Government is our worst pathogen, whether you call them administrators or rulers or tyrants, the result is the same -- bad outcomes for those who comply. Better to focus on issues that matter. Be ungovernable.

I couldn't agree more. The older I get, the more of an anarchist I become. Government has always been the bane of human civilization. That's why we were warned that "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty". How vigilant were we here in America while FEDGOV was slowly captured by forces hostile to human freedom? Ultimately, it's our fault.

I remain hopeful though that things are about to take a dramatic turn for the better. The entire planet is undergoing an unprecedented healing crisis. It's painful but necessary.

Why do you mix up the issues - do viruses exist, and what is their connection to diseases?

Expand full comment

Why do you obsess over trivia? People get sick. People devise therapies. People study the illnesses and the cures to better understand. Current state of the art says of course viruses exist and cause physiological reactions we perceive as sickness. Sars2, for example, being a fairly simple organism is easier to understand than the more complex human reactions. Doesn't really matter what you call the agents causing the body to initiate those reactions, or why the body reacts badly, only that we can expedite the recovery. If you want to deny viruses, go for it. It won't affect your outcome. Health is not a function of what you believe, but what you do.

Though I generally don't recommend Wikipedia, its treatment of endo- and exosomes is a good staring point. You can then use an alternative search engine such as Freespoke and type in "exosomes vs viruses". If your interest is sufficient, you could be reading for weeks. The jury is still deliberating about this subject and much remains to be discovered. Initial premises regarding viral etiology of disease are in need of reexamination but that's difficult to do when the scientific reputations of so many are on the line.

Thanks for mentioning another search engine. I hadn't heard of it, Freespoke that is. I just tried doing a search there now on "vaccine deaths". There are 500 pages of results, which is much better than other search engines. But at least the first few pages are biased toward the mainstream BS. I can tell by the website names and by some of the titles. I also searched on "scamdemic" and that gets less biased results, I think. "Plandemic" gets very mainstream results though. We need a search engine for alternative views for a change. Damn it.

You do understand that until CDC changed the definition of a vaccine and how they are made it always meant a "killed" or attenuated virus. Until you can collect virus particles you can't "kill" or attenuate them.

Expand full comment

What is being called "viruses" are universally acknowledged to be non-living things, so they cannot be "killed". Attenuation refers to the process of inactivating or weakening these things, whatever they are. This is claimed to prevent replication inside host cells. So the question remains: What is it that's actually being collected and purified (from eggs or from cell culture lysates and supernates), which needs to then be treated so as not to create the very disease it's designed to protect against - exosomes or real, infective, viral particles?

Let's look at the flu. Why do many people who receive flu shots still develop flu-like symptoms each year? I've never had a flu jab and I haven't had so much as a mild head or chest cold for over 50 years now. Either the shots are woefully ineffective or the "viruses", whatever they really are, have acquired a reputation that they don't deserve. The seasonal flu comes along each year when Vitamin D levels drop because everyone is wearing cold weather clothing and remaining largely indoors. The immune system has a critical need for D and it wanes in competence as a result of chronic D deficiency. For some as yet unexplained reason, our bodies respond by initiating a natural detoxification cycle. Our cells dump wastes (packaged in exosomes) into the extra-cellular fluids and that creates all of the symptoms associated with what we've come to call the "flu".

Pennies a day of Vitamin D3/K2 alone will prevent a multitude of human ills...

Phil, it's not just lack of sunlight in the winter that leads to the tendency to get colds and flu. It's also the low humidity that allows viruses to remain in the air longer, whereas humidity causes them to fall to the ground in water droplets.

Vitamin D is a metabolite essential for immune function to protect against invading pathogens, like virises. Which is good evidence for the existence of viruses. Maintain your immune health and the nature of the pathogen doesn't matter. It's handled automatically.

I agree viruses exist however your statement does not account for complexities of the immune system. A virus can be present and not cause illness because the immune system neutralizes it.

No. The burden of proof lies with any statement of fact in the negative or positive. Science (or our current understanding of it) is very limited in what it can and can't determine as empirical truth. A true statement of fact in this debate would be there is not enough empirical evidence to proove absolutely that the phenomena ascribed to "viruses" causes x, y, z disease. You cannot "prove" that viruses do not cause Chicken Pox, unless you have an alternative hypothesis that withstands the same level of scrutiny for proof that you expect from the conventionally accepted hypothesis. This is how Science works. Sometimes the truth is that we just don't know with our current level of technology. But again, you cannot unseat a conventionally accepted hypotheses without proof of a replacement. This is what is driving Steve Kirsch crazy. This is why virus naysayers do not want to debate him, they have no alternative explanations grounded in empirical data.

HIV is distinctive in that it mutates very quickly, faster than SARS. Developing antivirals is pretty easy. Developing antivirals for the next strain is harder. In general, RNA viruses mutate quicker due to the lack of error checking in RNA replication. More stable viruses like smallpox and polio are easier.

Pasteur admitted late in life (some claim it was a deathbed confession) that his germ theory of disease wasn't incorrect, but it WAS incomplete. We now know that the TERRAIN is far more important than the microbe. Pathogens are opportunistic and will proliferate if conditions are suitable for doing so.

Focus on immune system health and it will keep you healthy. Address chronic nutritional deficiencies, maintain your internal chemistry in an alkaline state by eating more alkaline-forming foods and beverages, and employ natural, gentle, detoxing regimens on a routine basis. We live in an increasingly toxic world, so it's critically important that you perform intestinal cleanses/fasts and liver/gall bladder/kidney/lymphatic flushes. They're easy and inexpensive but require two things which seem to be in short supply in today's world... commitment and discipline.

Or how both towers started "pancaking" from the TOP many stories above the fire (as in planned demolition), when the bulk of the fuel would have flowed DOWNWARDS, and they did not buckle where the fires were. They SHOULD HAVE collapsed and just fallen over sideways from the point of damage if they were to fall on their own.

They aren't "afraid of water" in any normal sense. The virus destroys the brain and in the process the animal loses control of its tongue and swallowing reflex and is unable to drink, and is very hyper-excitable and will behave very bizarrely because of all the damage, struggling and biting at things. This is why they are so dangerous to get anywhere near. Some countries still have high levels of rabies. Mexico does or did, at least until fairly recently. Rabies is no joke. Even cattle and horses catch it. Any mammal can catch it but not necesarrily transmit it Some small animals will die before the virus migrates to the salivery glands which would make them able to spread it. Pet ferrets cannot give you rabies from a bite because research has shown that they invariable die first. But bats, foxes, racoons, dogs, and yes, even horses, can give it to you if it is in their saliva. Rabies is not caused by some imaginary toxin!

Expand full comment

If it has such a high IFR then how could it spread? Seems like Rabies is punishing its host by causing it to die so quickly.

It seems especially dumb for a virus to get its host to stop drinking. I mean what does it gain from that? Surely the Rabies virus that didn't do that would spread while the other strain die out.

I've never seen a pet nor an animal in the wild with rabies. You would think I would see 50, 100. I mean the rabid animal would be easy to spot.

I remember seeing a video of a man who couldn't drink as he was biten by a rabid dog. I dunno what to say it looked fake. Especially since the guy finally managed to take a sip before going into a panic.

I now fear of food can be due to a B1 ded. It makes sense that something similar is at play here.

They don't die quickly enough to break the chain of transmission. The virus gets into the salivary glands, and into the brain to trigger crazy biting behavior, so it spreads. Quite "brilliant", actually.

I'd argue rather than viruses don't exist that viruses haven't been shown to exist which is not quite the same. It may well be that there are tiny pathogens causing illness but it seems they haven't been identified. What doctors such as Sam and Mark Bailey do is go through the scientific papers that allegedly show the isolation of a virus and its infectious nature and show that the authors of the papers have not followed the scientific method.

This is a video on the subject just published in the last couple of days.

To argue for the existence of viruses it is necessary to look at the argument against their proven existence. Have you done that?

I just watched this video and I want to make some clarifications just as a point of argument. My understanding on viruses is that in theory they act as dead matter until they come into contact with the tissue or whatever. They can't be separated out because they won't do anything if they are. The baileys also argued that germs are inert. Taking this out to bacteria is going to far.

That's easy enough to find, and while rabies vaccines do have some unpleasant side effects, people don't randomly drop dead from rabies vaccines, unlike mRNA vaccines.

I guess my question would be: you just got bitten and

infected with live rabies virus. These viruses are then

too strong for your antibody-creating cells to deal with?

An attenuated virus vaccine on the other hand will get

your antibodies up-and-running quickly enough?

Half the animals were injected with ascorbate intraperitoneally (in the abdomin) one hour later. They sacrificed the animals in a few days and every one without the vitamin C had their lungs massively full of fluid, inflammation, and were riddled with huge numbers of microclots. The animals given the vitamin C had perfect lungs except ONE mouse had ONE micro clot visible in the lung section under the microscope. That's pretty darn impressive, and probably quite relevant to COVID. I took a lot of vitamin C when I had the original (nasty!) strain of COVID in 2020, and my oxygen saturation never dropped at all, so I'm pretty sure my lungs stayed clear of clots, too!

To me it’s a non-issue whether viruses exist or not. It’s like debating whether “climate change” is man-made or natural. Both “sides” ignore self and collective responsibility for getting consistent, long term, wholistic positive results. In the case of climate, that would mean minimizing pollution, reducing waste from all sources and changing manufacturing practices to cradle to cradle systems and creating more efficient, less toxic ways to produce needed goods and services or possibly rethink what we actually need and where we are simply doing things out of habit or from someone else’s profit motive without considering the total costs of our ”way of life”.

As regards “viruses”, “exosomes” or what have you, it doesn’t matter when you comprehend that optimal health is the best possible balance of toxin avoidance and removal and nutritional repletion. This includes not just diet, but one’s total environment, internal and external such as thoughts, emotions, trauma and its resolution, sunlight, hydration, mineral status, movement, exercise, breathing, air and water quality, frequency, rest, sleep, relaxation, meditative or contemplative habits, past and present relationships, etc. In other words, neither illness or health exist in a vacuum with singular causes and effects. Taking the time to figure this out for myself and continue to learn and apply has led to me not having even a sniffle in over thirty years and not requiring any medical attention in over forty. Kept doing what I know works throughout this prolonged period of upheaval and didn’t do any of the things so many insisted were necessary with the result that I am stronger and healthier than ever (and I was already off the high end of the charts for health and fitness) and no one I know who practiced all the “mandated things” can truly state that, if they are still even alive. I don’t believe in viruses or no viruses. I know what actually creates the results I seek. Somehow everyone wants to argue, but no one cares about demonstrable results. That’s all I care about. If your results are better than mine, I want to listen to you. If they are not, maybe you should listen to me…

Both are bringing about far reaching legislation. Both these must be fought tooth and nail. Your common sense approach is fine. I can’t argue with it. But that isn’t the situation we are in. If viruses have never been found in isolation, and this can be proved, then their whole medical edifice falls. We can take away a giant weapon they are currently using against us. Same with climate change. It isn’t true. That is abundantly clear now. But my skies are constantly being sprayed with a crosshatching of something. A neighbour’s nephew is in enviro studies at U Vic. He is thrilled they are seeding the skies to reflect light away from the earth. He says they are learning this in his science program. Yet, they aren’t telling us, the public, about it. It is ludicrous to monkey wrench with nature like this. It has never worked. Ever. So, it does matter how we treat these two issues. Because they are lying to bring about some sort of end.

It isn't known at this time. Let scientists keep working on it. The real question is, why is this question dividing people who are being genocided? Who started the silly food fight that keeps our attention off the people trying to kill us? My personal opinion: I have caught many colds, and often I know who I caught it from. It wasn't because I was unhealthy or had emotional problems, but because someone who had a cold was near me. Maybe terrain has an effect too, since I don't always catch colds from people who have them and are near me. But when I do, it doesn't seem random, it looks like causation. So I usually avoid people who are sneezing, I guess I do believe in viruses. But so what, the government is trying to kill me, and getting involved in a scientific feud is silly.

Excellent book, THE MOTH IN THE IRON LUNG, makes a great case that nearly all cases of polio were NOT caused by the polio virus. Most were caused by environmental poison! And studies showed that only about one quarter of patients who were paralyzed tested positive for the polio virus. Turns out there are many other viruses that can paralyze.

Chkn pox vax correlates w/ increases in shingles. "The universal chickenpox vaccination program is neither effective nor cost-effective and caused a dramatic rise in shingles: "From 2000 to 2001, reported HZ cases aged 20 years and older increased 18% in the AV-VASP (Fig. 1) [39] and this compares to the 22.5% annual increase reported in Massachusetts by Yih et al. from 1999 to 2003 [62]. A large 34% increase in HZ reports to AV-VASP was noted from 2001 to 2002 when an HMO (Kaiser) began reporting to the AV-VASP. This may have contributed to the high mean increase in HZ reports of approximately 28%/year among adults 20 years and older from 2000 to 2002 [39]. However, the AV-VASP reported a similar increase of 28% during 2006–2007 among adults aged 50 years and older as well as a larger 38% increase in HZ incidence among adults aged 50–59 years [63]. From 2000 to 2006, the incidence among those aged 10–19 years approximately doubled [63]." " https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X12007761?via%3Dihub

A couple of things:

Yes, a lot of vaccines were introduced as incidences of infections (and especially deaths from those diseases) were already massively reduced. That is not the case with chickenpox. Up until the vaccine was introduced, basically the entire population got the disease as children.

Now, in countries that have adopted the chickenpox vaccine, cases of chickenpox are extremely rare. But in countries that are equally rich, well-fed, healthy and hygenic, but don't use that vaccine, all the kids still get chickenpox.

Also, chickenpox has been around for longer than vaccines, so that doesn't seem like a realistic explanation.

I'm measuring the drop in cases by observation. I have extensive networks in vax and non-vax countries. In the vax countries, none of the kids have had chickenpox. Parents in those countries are often surprised to hear that the disease still exists in other parts of the world. In the non-vax countries, all kids get it eventually.

A "case" of chickenpox comes with unique water-filled pustules that are highly unlike any other common disease. I.e. it is diagnosed via very unique symptoms, not a PCR test or some nebulous thing like "coughing". It has a tendency to sweep through neighborhoods, schools and daycares every few years, as a critical mass of previously uninfected children is reached. Those previously infected do not get reinfected.

Expand full comment

1) shouldnt this observation be published in such a way as to promote accountability?

2) Why arent drug/vaccine manufacturers/distributors citing similar credible observations? Especially if such observations would promote the "effectiveness" of the contents of their chickenpox jab?

3) "... Those previously infected do not get reinfected."

That seems to support those crazy naturopaths that suggest that you should "get it" (chickenpox or whatever dis-ease) so that you develop a PROPER Natural immunity to it, instead of injecting undisclosed or unknown substances into the bloodstream in the hopes that it might temporarily thwart some symptoms.

The vaccination schedule for the young has swelled over the years almost as much as the DSM for mental disorders... and for precisely the same reason: the acquisition and retention of steady customers.

The etymology of words held important clues before the Rockefeller/Carnegie families declared war on natural health modalities with the issuance of their Flexner Report in 1910. My pre-PC 1828 edition of Noah Webster's "American Dictionary of the English Language" includes the following entries:

1) pharmaceutical - From the Greek "pharmacopaeia", to practice witchcraft or use medicine; poison or medicine.

2) witchcraft - The presence of witches; sorcery; enchantments; intercourse with the devil.

Viruses don't exist (by Dr Thomas Cowan and others, allegedly via Rudolf Steiner) - Viral sickness is a cyclical detox that can be triggered by seasons in conjunction with cellular necessity. Proximity to a tribesman in detox signals a safe time for the rest of the tribe to also detox. Also the things we call viruses are a detox assistant machine created by our cells.

The irony of the Steiner theory is that detox is transmissible like a virus, almost like the Greek miasma (contagious darkness of the soul). The detox machine theory also invokes behavior comparable to a virus. Even the notion of a "DNA upgrade" for detoxing that is sharable but kills some people begs the question of quarantine.

Do viruses exist? Is the wrong question perhaps because both theories "agree" on some parts. The important part is why are viruses inconsequential for some and not others? Are viruses a crucial part of the organism or something to be eliminated? And are lab made viruses breaking the natural paradigm?

Spot on, and this is a far more difficult issue to adjudicate than either side of the issue may admit. Let us not forget Koch’s first postulate that has been all but abandoned with Typhoid Mary and the existence of the asymptotic carrier, “the microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy organisms.”

This does not undo viral theory on its own but reminds us that we are outside the realm of pure cause and effect relationships. Health is a complicated matter, of which I think we greatly underplay the importance of mindset (look no further than the placebo effect), and we are constantly looking at correlations at best. This is to say nothing of the alleged controversial discoveries of folks like Bechamp and Rife, which recent history should give us all pause to summarily dismiss them as cranks.

I personally think there is room for viruses being both a reaction of the immune system and a toxifying agent that can be spread. And potentially a non-concern if your faith, so to speak, is high enough. In order to study physical phenomena, we must discount the role of consciousness impacting what we are observing. This is a rational approach, but rationalism and objectivity are ultimately only a philosophy and there are no guarantees that reality (whatever that is) has to play by those rules.

Sorry if this went a bit too “woo” but I think it’s hard to avoid if we want to be completely honest on what we think we know.

Hiya,

We can categorically say there is no evidence that viruses exist or that they cause disease (which is hard if they don't exist!)

In order to observe tiny particles, such as viruses, a sample from a patient with the disease is placed in a sucrose density gradient and centrifugation is performed. Viruses are thought to have a density of around 1.16g/cm3 so they should gather in this band.

Viruses could not be visualised in this band using samples from Covid patients. So how did they know that what couldn’t be seen was causing the disease?

You may well be right in regards to *COVID* issue, which is dodgy-sketchy to say the least.

But I thought this discussion was more general than that.

In fact, the specific notion that viruses collect in the 1.16g/cm3 density band would be most curious if viruses don't exist as such—why 1.16, why not 0.03 or 501 for that matter since ANY random number would be equally (dis)qualified?

Otherwise I may as well claim that angel dust can be caught in 3.88g/cm3 region and demand a Nobel (in presumably new category).

The viruses I am referring to are the ones of virologists own definition of being proteinaceous coated particles, sometimes with characteristic 'fringes', with RNA or DNA inside them, and with similar sizes and shapes. There have different types that they refer to, for example HIV is claimed to be type C shape, however these are not lentiviruses, which are the ones with the characteristics that HIV is meant to have. So even by their own definitions they can't find them or agree what they should look like.

I think they were planes. The thing about the hologram claims is that there are many eyewitness videos -- even of the first plane -- in which the noise of the plane is plainly audible (sometimes very loud). It's clearly being heard by people on the ground because they're reacting to the sound even before their eyes can find the plane.

The way the planes disappear into the buildings is striking to see, but the body of an airplane is a lightweight, rather fragile structure. (The engines are obviously not, but the engines have a lot of mass and incredible force at that speed.) The speed, at sea level, was so fast it was approaching the point where the plane could begin to fall apart. (This has a technical term, this max velocity, but I don't recall it; but they were close to that).

I think all theories should be considered, but don't find holograms to be credible.

If that’s good enough for you, that’s fine by me. But there’s a lot more related to optics involved with creating a horizon than one may initially think. Most people involved in the shape of the earth discussion, even those who ardently back the globe, concede that we do not see the actual geometric horizon basically ever, because there is refraction and other elements at play. And this has to be the case for the globe model because the distance to the geometric horizon is 1.22 times the square root of the observer’s height in feet and there are a plethora of observations that exceed this by 10x or greater.

No, you couldn't see it, unless you were on top of the Everest. And even NASA now admits you need to as high as 65,000 ft to see it, not 35,000.

A few remarks are warranted here:

• Repurposing your logic means that your reply is a veiled attack on those who believe that the Earth is flat (and in fact I know such a person and have all kinds of respect for him),

• How would you classify the Ebola patients—victims of autosuggestion and/or superstition?

• All those dozens of Pentagon-funded biological weapon labs surrounding Russia, collecting DNA samples of (take note) <b>strictly Russian ethnics—NOT Ukrainian</b> (documents captured by Russian forces in Mariupol and elsewhere)—what was their purpose if not virological ... or are they that daft?

• I have also referenced actual, physical photos of (big) viruses, visible under a dime store microscope—feel free to relabel it as mystery meat, I am slow to take offense,

• On the final note, my apologies if your feelings are hurt, such was not my intention.

I have a BS in Biology from a major Big Ten college and I have seen viruses under a microscope. Not your average $300 microscope, but I have seen them move and some "vibrate." They are extremely small, which why masks were quite ineffective. Viruses could march fifty wide through a mask and never touch a fiber of the mask.

I'm 69 and my wife is 68. She was an OB RN for 44 years and I was a paramedic for 12 years and an Emergency Room RN for 27 years.

I have seen active bacteria under a microscope and active viruses under a special microscopes.

What kind of "special microscope" enabled you to view "viruses" moving and vibrating? To my knowledge, what are termed viruses are only visible under an electron microscope, for which the process of preparation necessarily means that what is viewed is not even close to its natural state, and in fact it must be dead.

But....before Plandemic I laughed and ridiculed friends of mine who went down the flat earth rabbit hole, but COVIDtimes humbled me, and I try to never again make condescending prejudicial judgements. I sat down and honestly tried to listen to their arguments. They are definitely not all stupid, they sometimes have actually interesting points, which i have no studied answer to. They could not convince me, but at least they dive in and research and questions things.

How does the immune system get depleted? By accumulating toxins and/or deficiencies, right? That might actually explain the development of symptoms better than anything else...

Expand full comment

I don't think this alone can be an explanation, although it surely is a factor. How can toxins/deficiencies explain the existence of various childhood diseases that only get caught once and then confer lifelong immunity?

Expand full comment

Toxins can lead to immunity, it's not just a virus thing. You can build immunity to cyanide--definitely not a virus.

Some adults develop symptoms of those developmental diseases too, and it's possible--though rare--to experience them more than once. Also, isn't shingles the adult version of chicken pox for people with depleted immune systems?

Expand full comment

But how can a toxin spread from one person to another? If I ingest cyanide, it's not going to produce a chain of identical symptoms in the people around me and their contacts. My observation of chickenpox is that there is a clear temporal and local correlation in the chain of infection.

I realize that there are rare reinfection cases, but nothing in nature is truly 100% (not even biological sex, which is about as binary as it gets). I can't spend all my time on the various caveats and corner cases. If something is true 95%+ of the time, I think we can both agree that it's the norm, and then just keep in the back of our minds that things get fuzzy at the extreme margins.

As regards shingles, the official hypothesis is this: the chickenpox virus lies latent in the nerve system and can end up getting reactivated through a combination of waning immunity to that specific virus, plus a general weakened immune system. This produces the sickness known as shingles. But shingles as a disease is not contagious (i.e. we don't see shingles outbreaks following a typical infection pattern), because it is dependent on the person having both prior immunity AND a currently weakened immune system. However, exposure to a person with shingles can actually give you chickenpox if you're not already immune. For a person who has already had chickenpox, being around others who currently have it can give the immune system a natural "booster". This is why there has been a marked increase in the number of incidences of shingles cases since the chickenpox vaccine became common, and older folks don't get to be around those with chickenpox. But most children and young people in America today get neither chickenpox nor shingles, due to the vaccines.

This seems like a very logical and internally consistent explanation to me. If I saw a different hypothesis that explained it better, I would certainly consider it, but so far I haven't seen anything.

You're convinced chicken pox symptoms are "caught" and I no longer share that conviction. I think they can be triggered in other ways. But I'm not a doctor or a scientist, I just trust my intuition.

OK, but does contagion equate to virus-exists? Admittedly something is contagious, but what?

Expand full comment

Well, virus is just a name that was given to a pathogen that causes illness and is contagious. So based on the definition of the word I think yes it is fair to say its a virus. You could say its a contagious pathogen instead but again virus is just a word with a definition and there are many things we name but don't fully understand

Expand full comment

UNSURE but lean towards VIRUSES existing. Here is why.

I worked as a medic in an army camp (Actually quite a few over the years) but this one in particular was the first port of call for the recruits and officer cadets in training. So we had large numbers of young men coming in and out all year round. Usually in the hundreds at a time.

Anyway, can you imagine what happens when you get hundreds of young men and women and put them together in a few closely connected barracks?

You get outbreaks. And I saw quite a number of these over the years.

I saw scabies outbreaks. Which is a parasite not a virus

I saw noravirus/gastro outbreaks. Quite frequently. Who knows could be bacteria or a toxin and not a virus. We tested for bacterial infections but those routinely came back negative.

I also saw what was allegedly swine flu too going back to 2008/9ish

All outbreaks were primarily dealt to with quarantine and decontamination. Tis the army way.

Scabies for example. Was to remove the obviously infected and put them in another smaller barracks until they didn't show symptoms (quarantine). Prophylactically treated the rest of the barracks with permethrin. Then strip and decontaminate the barracks and all clothing and linen was hot washed.

Norovirus was similar. Those sick were put in the small ward at the treatment center and were treated as needed, most of them just needed to rest and be warm for a couple of days. A couple needed IV saline and other treatments. The barracks and toilets/ablutions were thoroughly decontaminated. No other treatment beyond corrective retraining in field hygiene practices for all the others. Lucky them.

The swine flu outbreak we had actually occured in a senior NCO course which was smaller (50ish) and had older more experienced soldiers. They were housed/quarantined in their own barracks separate from those who were not sick (quarantine) and as a medic I delivered their meals and took periodic observations and handed out basic medicines as needed. Most were fine. A couple had nasty fevers. All recovered.

All scenarios eventually ended. Removing the sick individuals from the majority into quarantine worked. It didn't continue or spread throughout the rest of the camp. If this is not viral contagion... How? What else made this work?

Also the similarity in the environmental conditions and food eaten. I just don't see how terrain theory alone explains this

Swine flu: Assumed too I think. So based on symptoms. This I had little to do with beyond carrying out orders which came from doctors and officers up the line. I was a lowly private at the time.

Hmm. I was hoping you'd say that ;)

Did anyone notice that the young women's menstrual cycles also started syncing as a result of being in "closely connected barracks"? I'd argue it's pretty much the same process, yet no one's blaming it on a virus. Those symptoms can develop without being "caught" and individual isolation can make them stop too...

Other than the scabies. That's pretty apparent a little mite/parasite

I can't say that isn't possible. Eg we never really had a case zero.

Sometimes outbreaks were mid recruit training so where did it come from? Family visit day?

It would usually start with several from a platoon getting the shits. Then a day or two later several from another. Once there were about 20 cases we would go full quarantine/decon mode.

Interesting thoughts

Perhaps it’s so women can all get pregnant at once? If there are many women living together, it suggests a lack of men. If a few men passing by at once (who would likely be welcomed—that was certainly the case in my dorm at a women’s college!), one of them would likely hit the peak time, with the most “virile” becoming a dominant, nomadic Romeo.

Viruses definitely do exist. This leads to a grave concern of mine throughout the whole pandemic: not only those who deny the existence of covid, but virii entirely. I'm not sure where the idea began that no one had isolated the covid virus, but it began somewhere and many seemed to latch onto it for some reason, in what appeared to me to be a rationalization towards it being engineered by humans.. But then if its engineered and not a virus, what is it? Just a toxin? That catch all pseodoscience phrase in league with holistic mumbo jumbo...

Maybe it was because Fauci said the virus was isolated in China and that's what they used to make the Moderna vaccine in two days. A year later, China said they never isolated the virus. Where's the proof the virus was *properly* isolated and by WHOM? People are still waiting.

Expand full comment

JJ Couey of gigaohmbiological makes a good case that sars cov-2 was released (deliberately/accidenatlly) on a background of a whole (and constantly circulating) swarm of such viruses. Until sars, coronoviruses had been notoriously difficult to culture (hence why there was little tinkering with coronaviruses until sars). There was also already a background of cross-immunity from other c-viruses but this lineage just has a particularly nasty spike. PCR testing has complicated things because originally they were tracking the spike but now they are not anymore. Given c-viruses recombine readily with each other it's hard to say what is or is not happening. Coronaviruses such as OC43 kill people regularly (mostly elderly) every year but since they do not culture them they are classified as PLI (pneumonia like illness).

Anyway, he makes a very good case for the existence of viruses but the covid situation is mighty murky, complex and full of shenanigans which sets up the no-virus position quite well, although he disputes it's biological foundation.

One doesn't need to deny the existence of viruses to stop 'the scam.' It's more likely that the majority of people would just call you a 'virus denier' and ignore you right off the bat. Plus, a documentary isn't gonna cut it when there are decades of biological foundation that offer a plausible explanation. A proper debate between people with sufficient data and knowledge would be more useful if we really want that. Not everything has to be a conspiracy or a lie. Heck, one can spend one's entire life going down rabbit holes because existence is one big rabbit hole. But I think you have missed my bigger point: We don't have to agree on the non- existence of viruses to simultaneously oppose these authoritarian measures.

The simple fact is that you believe things but why do you feel the need to believe anything at all? I don't. I just have thoughts and I choose to act on certain ones, knowing that I have to take responsibility for the choices I make. For example, I chose not to get vaxxed. I got sick and I recovered.

Very tiny things have been captured by electron microscopy, much smaller than bacteria. These have further been characterized to contain DNA or RNA as their primary constituent, along with an enclosure. Note that these are not living organisms, by accepted conventions, but more like biological ‘information packets’.

There have been estimates that there are some 10^31 such things in the air we breathe, another 10^31 in the soil, and another similarly sized quantity in the waters. That’s 30 decillion (I think that’s what you call it—big numbers like this are not so familiar to name). It’s an incredible number. This is many many many orders of magnitude beyond all of the leaves on earth, more than the estimated number of stars in all the known universe!

Whatever one calls these things, they are found everywhere, even inside bacteria. We are literally walking and swimming through a stew of them, constantly. We breathe them in with every breath. They are on and within the food we consume, in the water we drink. Completely unavoidable.

These things are so ubiquitous, exposure to them cannot be fully controlled, not just because of their size, but also by virtue of the sheer quantity. Further, these things appear to have ancient origins, and constantly changing, evolving. More likely than anything, we must have evolved to live in a form of balance with them, at least to some degree. Much like bacteria and the microbiome, our own biology is vastly outnumbered. We depend on these tiny things for health, we exist in a continuum with these microscopic things, and have evolved alongside them.

There are even parts of their DNA integrated into the human genome. These things are so fundamental to our evolution, that placental birth (read: all mammals) would not be possible without the integration of these ‘information packets’ into our genome. That’s worth pausing to consider.

Now, it is a very good question to ask if these things can be held responsible for disease.

It’s important to note that there have certainly been several times in not-so-recent history where it appears that disease was misattributed to these things. And it is absolutely worth noting that these occasions have been characterized by highly suspect pronouncements, dubious science, and even propaganda.

And, it’s also evident that the health of human beings is highly dependent on the state of biological systems, psychological health, and emotional health, not to mention nutrition and hygiene.

However, given the sheer quantity of these things in the soup that surrounds us, common observation tells us they cannot be the sole causation of disease.

Consider measurements of periodic seasonality. There are times when certain varieties of these things are more ubiquitous in the environment, and other times when these numbers fall to lower levels. And yet, despite the periodic increase in quantities measured, not everyone displays symptoms of an ‘infection’. There are even times—not uncommon—when people sharing the same living spaces will not all fall ill with the same condition. Clearly there are other dynamics at play.

The parents out there will know by experience that there are many times that their children have become ill with something, yet the parents will not show any sign of sickness, despite living and breathing alongside them. How many of us have had this experience—not falling sick, even while sharing workspaces with someone who is coughing or sneezing, clearly showing symptoms? And yet there are other times when we, ourselves, might have fallen ill while others around us did not. Other dynamics at play.

Yet, despite all this, the reality of the 10^31 little things around us is all too real.

The models used to describe what these things are, and how they interact with us, are likely not accurate, and based on an incomplete understanding. Such is the reality of the limited understanding of human beings. We don’t know everything—we’re like children wandering through the largest library imaginable.

But—that doesn’t mean these little tiny things don’t exist.

I'm in the MAY EXIST camp too. This knowledge is in it's infancy so pretending that it is all solid science, and the subsequent creation of "safe and effective" pharmacoligical agents is very dangerous stuff. It's all just experimental work in the hope that getting the right medicine to work proves the theory. Lipid Nanoparticle delivery of mRNA strands to entice normal living cells to produce foreign proteins is very dangerous and unpredictible.

To be clear, I think it’s quite plain that these little things exist. I don’t think that’s in question.

How medicine looks at this is something distinct. The LPN mRNA is a glaring example of hubris, hacking a system that is only vaguely understood. It’s on par with splitting atoms…”because we can” is a poor excuse. But as with that example, there are/were other motivations at play, and not all of them benevolent.
