Alex,
That podcast was superb and I am mentally starting to put some pieces together and get a very scary picture.
We have the AIDS story told by Henry Bauer, in which there is no virus. Remember that Several other top researchers are part of that story - notably Kary Mullis.
We have the COVID scare which as I have pointed out before is at least consistent with there being no actual virus.
There is the story about Pasteur's notebook - I assume that is true
We have all the incidents where a Rabies panic was quashed by research which showed no sign of the disease - coupled with the fact (I assume) that dogs with untreated worms can appear to go mad and bite people.
Then there is polio. Polio is indeed mimicked by another disease, called acute flaccid myelitis. Look it up. Also I know a guy who actually caught polio as a kid, and his parent's house butted onto a corn field, so he might have been exposed to toxic chemicals that way. Another odd thing about polio, is that only about 1 in 200 people who get the disease actually go on to show the paralysis symptoms. A quick GOOGLE did not give me the name of someone who originally isolated the rabies virus (which I'd have thought was a really important discovery).
Then we have the issue that Randall Murphy brought up (above). The key problem is that Sars-Cov-2 was not isolated in the conventional sense. Nowadays a virus can be deemed 'isolated' and people pass around a liquid that supposedly contains virus particles along with other biological material. This is supposedly also the case with HIV.
Do I need to go into exactly why this looser definition of viral detection really matters yet again?
@Alex, you challenged him with the data on rabies in the US - I do hope you will find out how that went. Since it takes a while between you recording the show and getting it on your website, I wonder if he could already update you on that.
