The Big Fear is the biggest myth: Virus is killing randomly
The other big myth is: we were all healthy before Covid-19
Today in mass-medicine MDs are clueless on giving individual patients certainty about how big their individual risk factor is. A lot of BAD ideas are circulating and BAD research is being published with hidden or unconscious agendas. It will take a year or more for the dust to settle — and to mix metaphors — to allow the cream of what’s true to rise to the top.
Maybe you’ve noticed corporate mass media prefers to publish and broadcast stories and pieces based on these memes:
• The epidemic can infect you, be very afraid,
• It strikes people randomly, no age group is safe,
• Nothing is certain about what strengthens the human immune system against infection; (everyone disagrees they say).
Why are these memes closer to myth? Because mass medicine is based on germ theory dogma. Pasteur moved beyond his own germ theory dogma in 1895. Scientific American magazine moved beyond germ theory dogma in 1955. You can too — even if corporate mass media news has not.
What story comes after germ theory dogma? Curiosity is needed to learn the answer.
