Then, of course, there are the deathbed "recantations." Both creationists and germ theory deniers have spread stories of "death bed" conversions or recantations. Darwin, it was claimed by Elizabeth Cotton in 1915 (30 years after his death), had "recanted" on his deathbed.
I'll finish with the most hilarious example of germ theory denial. It came from @billmaher in 2008, when Bob Costas took him down a notch after he had bragged that he wouldn't get the flu on a plane because his lifestyle made him so resistant.

Costas' retort was hilarious. He rolled his eyes at
@billmaher and said, "Oh, come on, Superman!"https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/oh-come-on-superman-bill-maher-and-western-medicine/ … -
In any case, my go-to retort for anyone citing "terrain theory" as a reason why he's so resistant to
#COVID19 or any other infectious disease is now, "Oh, come on, Superman!" /end - Show replies
