Well I have spent almost an entire year dead for tax reasons. I should have spent next year dead because that’s when I really will have to pay tax but then timing was never my strong point. Anyway, much of what has happened while I was incapacitated is really outside my area of expertise so I”ll start with something I know about.

There has been a sort of development of tinfoil hattery since 2020. It started with ‘Covid doesn’t exist’.

Okay, I can see where that comes from and it does make sense. Flu infections and deaths vanished to be replaced with almost exactly the same number of Covid infections and deaths. Mostly, if not entirely, in the same sections of the population that flu deaths normally occur in.

So okay, there is a valid argument that Covid was simply the flu rebranded. It’s not certain but it’s a valid argument.

I never caught it. And I never took the vaccine either.

I didn’t take the vaccine, even though as a microbiologist I’ve taken vaccines against many things people don’t normally get exposed to.

Why not? Because it wasn’t a vaccine. It was an infection. It was designed to make your own body cells express a protein that would make your immune system kill them. It was, as I said at the time, an autoimmune disease in a syringe. I have, sadly, been proved right since then and it gives me no pleasure to say it was even worse than I expected.

Back to the tinfoilers. I did notice that the flat-earthers were suddenly on the rise and were inevitably associated with the ‘anti-vaxxers’ – as in, anyone who objected to the covid jabs must also be a flat-earther. I thought that was a clever twist, and it worked. Also the claim that Ivermectin was only an animal medicine, promulgated by actual ‘health agencies’ who must have known that it was first approved for human use long before it was used in livestock, hey that worked too.

People just don’t seem to care about themselves. They are happy to let someone else do it for them, even the ones who care more about profits than humanity. But that’s their choice, I suppose.

And so the tinfoil thickened. It reached the point of ‘viruses don’t exist’ and then moved into ‘bacteria don’t cause disease’. Spoiler. They do. I’ve worked with bacteria that cause disease, they definitely do and targeted therapies can stop them doing it. Most of the time, anyway.

I have not worked with human or animal viruses so will not comment, but I have worked with bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) and they are very real. In the lab, we can use them to transfer bits of DNA from one bacterium to another. It works because viruses have really crap quality control during assembly.

As for human viruses, I have personally experienced measles. mumps, rubella, chicken pox and more and can confirm that while none of these killed me (nor anyone around me) they were very real and most unpleasant.

So I can say that while I cannot prove viruses are real, my personal experience suggests they probably are. I think that might also be true of most of those people who claim viruses aren’t real. A cold or a blast of flu is hard to explain any other way. Although I have seem some imaginative attempts.

Science moves on, but not always in the right drection. Look up lobotomy for one example. Thalidomide for another. And maybe DDT for one more. It’s not immune to mistakes (the discoverer of apoptosis was laughed at for years) or falling for fakery (Piltdown Man). Science is never settled and if it ever claims to be, we are doomed. Ah. In at least one area, it has claimed exactly that. So, we’re doomed. At least in that area.

So, where does this rambling take us? Well, science progressed from simply turning your own body cells into foreign protein producers and therefore legitimate targets for you own immune system. For comparison, a ‘normal’ vaccine introduces foreign protein for your immune system to practice on. It does not turn your own cells into targets.

Not good enough – the new self-replicating mRNA ‘vaccines’ (they are in no sense ‘vaccines’) take it further.

These are bits of RNA that not only turn your own cells into foreign protein factories – which your immune system regards as infected and must be killed – they take it further. Those mRNA strands will self-replicate forever and spread to other cells in your body. They will also spread to other people and animals and do the same to them.

Every organ in your body becomes a target for the immune system looking at cells infected with self-replicating RNA. Every other living thing you are exposed to also catches the self-replicating RNA and it will destroy their body cells too.

As science progress goes, this can only be classified as a double fail with honours. It puts thalidomide into the class of a mere inconvenience. And yet it is hailed as progress. It will kill so many people but it won’t be the RNA that actually kills you. It will be your own immune system taking you apart from the inside because it is trying to remove infected cells – but they are all producing the protein that classes them as infected. Even the immune system cells. They will also kill each other.

There is no currently claimed virus capable of this. Even Ebola or HIV doesn’t go this far. This ‘treatment’ is going to be the biggest killer the animal kingdom has ever experienced. And once it gets going, there is no way to stop it. It will spread itself.

So, to those who don’t believe viruses exist…

They certainly do now.
