    That doesn't make it a virus dum dum. If I give you something to eat and your stomach has a negative reaction to it doesn't mean it was poisoned.

        I listened to Michael Marshall interview someone on Be Reasonable recently who insisted that viruses don't cause disease, they are a symptom of disease and are shed by "sick" cells. From my knowledge of virology and genetics, this seemed unlikely.

        Most of the anti NPI stuff is germ theory denial also, I just don't think that they've taken their thoughts about the ineffectiveness of separating ppl to logical conclusions.

        Antibiotics introduce foreign DNA in the culture as well as producing exosomes. So obviously if you mix the sample with those ingredients and then inject it into an animal, the animal will probably have symptoms.

        Note the profile and the use of the terms ‘freethinker’ and ‘clown’ world together. I am beginning to think. Freethinker means I am right and everyone else, including experts are wrong. Because? Because

        I mean, he used the term "dum dum." Isn't that all you need to know he's an expert?
