| Our experience has revealed that people come to the appreciation of germ theory fraud through different windows. | |
| For me, it was seeing all the failed human transmission attempts beginning with the Rosenau experiments during the Spanish Flu era. | |
| In recent years, others have said it was my husband Mark's essay, A Farewell to Virology, his formal reputation of the entire virus model, that initiated their paradigm shift. | |
| Indeed, in the last five years, a new generation of critics of virology, germ theory and so-called contagious diseases have been working overtime to dismantle every aspect of the pathogen and contagion concepts. | |
| The dissection of the foundational science has led to the complete unraveling of any evidence for viruses and alleged germs, bacterial or otherwise, causing disease. | |
| Despite this, we still hear people say, well, didn't infectious diseases devastate the indigenous population when the colonists arrived in, insert country here? | |
| So let's see if we can help with this question and hopefully bring a few more people out from under the germ theory spell. | |
| Over the years we have been sent dozens of stories involving alleged accounts of Europeans bringing infectious diseases to other parts of the world. | |
| We can't cover all of them in this video, but some representative examples of how this is usually framed are as follows. | |
| The Spanish used smallpox blankets to wipe out native South American populations in the 1500s. | |
| The Māori population in New Zealand became badly affected by contagious diseases after the arrival of the British in the 1800s. | |
| Native populations in the New World were immunologically unprepared for old-world diseases and were devastated by the introduced germs. | |
| There is a lot to unpack here and we will come back to some of the specifics, but the first thing I usually ask is, can you provide some definitive evidence to back up this claim? | |
| Spoiler alert, nothing has ever been forthcoming. | |
| At best, the claimant provides some data showing a dramatic decline in total population numbers, and implies there could be only one explanation for such a phenomenon. | |
| Obviously this is inadequate, and we need to approach things in a more logical way, as well as test hypotheses through a scientific approach. | |
| The textbook, Genocide, a comprehensive introduction, states that devastation to a population can come through genocidal massacres. | |
| Slavery and forced indentured labour. | |
| Mass population removals to barren reservations, sometimes involving death marches en route and generally leading to widespread mortality and population collapse upon arrival. | |
| Deliberate starvation and famine, exacerbated by destruction and occupation of the native land base and food resources. | |
| You would be forgiven for thinking that these atrocities would be sufficiently adequate explanations for what killed off many native populations in the past. | |
| And it is not limited to undeveloped regions as the populations in developed countries can suffer the same fate when belligerent foreign governments, or at least their puppet masters, have decided to invade other territories. | |
| Unfortunately, the genocide textbook also slips into acceptance of germ theory ideology and goes on to list two more factors implicated in population devastation. | |
| The first is biological warfare, using pathogens, especially smallpox and plague, to which the indigenous peoples had no resistance. | |
| And the second is spreading of disease via the reduction of Indians to densely crowded and unhygienic settlements. | |
| The second point has some validity in that many diseases do increase when humans are living in confined and unhygienic conditions. | |
| However, it is not because of claimed spreading but because of simultaneous exposure to toxic environmental factors. | |
| With regard to alleged biological warfare, as usual, there is no evidence provided outside of hearsay and some opinion pieces. | |
| Wikipedia's entry for smallpox mentions one such account related to Pontiac's war between the British and the Native Indians in 1700s North America. | |
| Under the Biological Warfare section, it reports on an apparent attempt to introduce smallpox to the Indians, stating that, On 24 June 1763, William Trent, a local trader and commander of the Fort Pitt Militia, wrote, Out of our regard for them, we gave them two blankets and a handkerchief out of the smallpox hospital. | |
| I hope it will have the desired effect. | |
| The effectiveness of this effort to broadcast the disease is unknown. | |
| We have produced numerous presentations related to this topic, including Bioweapon BS and When You Wish Upon a Bioweapon. | |
| We have shown that there is no evidence they can make a microbial bioweapon in the 21st century. | |
| However, with our next example, we are expected to believe that the Spanish had perfected one 500 years ago. | |
| And if there was such a thing as a smallpox virus, how did the conquistadors deliver it to South America? | |
| Is it proposed that there was a human incubator who had the disease but was able to travel the high seas for five or six weeks? | |
| On arrival, the person then contaminated a blanket, and once it was taken up by the unsuspecting natives, it seeded a smallpox outbreak. | |
| Again, where is the evidence for such a fantastic story? | |
| Even on the mistaken establishment terms that it is a contagious entity, this 2012 paper in the Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology Journal states that the mode of smallpox transmission was never conclusively established. | |
| This is because there are no human-to-human transmission experiments showing it to be contagious. | |
| The author fumbles around with epidemiological studies, various models and case reports, before clutching at straws and declaring, fine particle aerosols were the most frequent and effective mode of smallpox transmission. | |
| Note that the blankets hypothesis does not get a look in here. | |
| The paper also reported that Fener et al., 1988, state that transmission on public transport was rare because patients seldom travelled after becoming ill. | |
| I guess at this point someone is going to play the asymptomatic superspreader card for the conquistadors. | |
| Or perhaps they'll claim that the Spanish ships were not a form of public transport. | |
| Anyway, to be fair to the establishment, they spend comparably little effort on the human incubator and blankets fairy story. | |
| They attribute the majority of deaths in the Americas to atrocities carried out by men. | |
| For our next example, we can look at one in my part of the world and consult the Wikipedia entry for the Moriori Genocide. | |
| It states that the Moriori Genocide was the mass murder and enslavement of the Moriori people, the indigenous ethnic group of the Chatham Islands. | |
| By members of the mainland New Zealand iwi Ngāti Motunga and Ngāti Tama from 1835 to 1863, the invaders murdered around 300 Moriori and enslaved the remaining population. | |
| This together with introduced Western diseases caused the population to drop from 1700 in 1835 to 100 in 1870. | |
| For those of you not familiar with propaganda campaigns in New Zealand, This is a classic example. | |
| Wikipedia describes a massacre carried out by some Maori tribes and then waters it down by inserting quote, introduced western diseases into the mix. | |
| Now, it does not specify what these diseases are, but one would assume that they include alleged infectious diseases. | |
| However, the two references provided do not back up such a claim. | |
| In fact, the first makes no mention of these diseases. | |
| The second reference actually states, Marked the start of a long journey of adversity for the Moriori people due to the threat of new diseases. | |
| In addition, the Moriori were invaded by two Iwi Māori, Ngāti Mutunga and Ngāti Tama, between 1835 and the early 1860s. | |
| A sixth of the Moriori population were murdered and those left behind were taken as slaves, which caused the Moriori population to drop from 1700 to about 100. | |
| Now it becomes apparent just how deceptive the Wikipedia entry is. | |
| The cited news article simply stated that Western diseases were a, quote, threat from the late 1700s onwards, but did not quantify what this was. | |
| Then it stated that the Moriori population rapidly went from 1700 to about 100, clearly related to the murder and slavery carried out by the Maori tribes in the mid-1800s. | |
| The attempt to blame germs from Europeans and Asians goes into overdrive in Wikipedia's entry for Maori people, where it states, Maori suffered high mortality rates from Eurasian infectious diseases, such as influenza, smallpox and measles, which killed an estimated 10-50% of Maori. | |
| Again, this is standard fare in present-day New Zealand. | |
| Perhaps they didn't get the memo that other regions are backing down on the germs killing the indigenous people rumours. | |
| Anyway, let's have a look at the citations provided by Wikipedia. | |
| The first is a largely unreferenced newspaper piece from 2006 that opens with, Maori depopulation in the south was chiefly an unintended consequence of contact completed by early assimilation and intermarriage. | |
| The second citation is a much more detailed one in the form of a 1973 paper published in the Population Studies Journal. | |
| This attempts to quantify birth and death rates in the Māori population from the mid-19th century up to World War I. Some of the staggering figures from the late 1800s are an infant death rate of 20-41% and a life expectancy of between 32.5 and 37.5 years. | |
| So the Māoris were doing very poorly overall at that time. | |
| The paper concluded that the evidence points very clearly to extremely low levels of survivorship resulting from epidemic diseases, mentioning measles and influenza. | |
| However, it should be noted that there were no official records concerning the Māori population before 1858. | |
| Which is decades after Europeans first arrived in New Zealand, so the earlier figures in the paper are all based on estimates. | |
| If someone is going to cite this paper as evidence for the infectious diseases claim, then there are numerous deficiencies. | |
| Putting aside the lack of foundational evidence for germ theory for the moment, they would still need to provide more indirect evidence. | |
| This would include evidence that conditions such as influenza did not exist for Maori prior to their contact with the rest of the world. | |
| Unfortunately, the Maori did not have a writing system, so their history prior to the arrival of Europeans is largely unknown. | |
| There is also the ever-present problem of disease diagnosis. | |
| How were cases of measles diagnosed in the alleged outbreaks in the 1800s? | |
| The information we are given is simply in the form of, quote, there was a major measles epidemic in this year. | |
| In our own lifetime, so we have just witnessed the monumental fraud of sickness and death being attributed to the single entity known as COVID-19. | |
| Our regular viewers will be well aware of our numerous publications covering this issue since 2020, and our latest book, The Final Pandemic, also provides a comprehensive overview of this issue. | |
| It becomes even more nebulous when dealing with sketchy accounts from previous centuries. | |
| On this matter, you can watch the video Exploding the Spanish Flu Myth, another of our joint productions with the Health Freedom Defence Fund. | |
| No one is denying the occurrence of episodes of mass sickness and death historically, but the focus on the germ has led to the quote theory to be molded to the accounts and vice versa. | |
| Please see my presentation on the plague for a well-known example of this problem where the foundational science does not back up the official narrative. | |
| It is also crucial to note we are not denying the appearance of problems such as diabetes, alcoholism, and chemical poisoning amongst indigenous people when, quote, more advanced civilizations moved into their region. | |
| However, these are toxic behavioral and environmental factors, not infectious diseases. | |
| It is interesting to see that the notion of infectious diseases wiping out native populations appears to have waxed and waned in its promotion over the decades. | |
| Perhaps in the current period, it presents an inconvenience for the woke ideologists who tend to eagerly participate in, quote, pandemic rituals, but are even more intent on blaming white people rather than germs for all the world's problems, both now and historically. | |
| White folks. | |
| White trash. | |
| White supremacy. | |
| White woman. | |
| White boy. | |
| Entitlement. | |
| Centering. | |
| White silence. | |
| Is there a black person around here? | |
| What's a black person right here? | |
| Does he not exist? | |
| While these individuals may be impossible to reach, we can at least focus on trying to help those that genuinely want to understand the truth about germ theory. | |
| A major step is getting them to appreciate that historical anecdotes, well-known stories, hearsay, and opinion pieces do not qualify as scientific evidence. | |
| If there are claims being put forward regarding, for example, the existence of a pathogen or the contagious nature of a disease, then it needs to be tested through the scientific method. | |
| As stated in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, a scientific hypothesis is an idea that proposes a tentative explanation about a phenomenon or a narrow set of phenomena observed in the natural world. | |
| The two primary features of a scientific hypothesis are falsifiability and testability. | |
| To be supported or refuted through observation and experimentation. | |
| This is an integral part of the scientific method as formulated by philosopher of science Karl Popper. | |
| We have been through thousands of the pivotal studies, including the original work of Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur. | |
| While Koch's postulates were logical and scientifically formulated, they have never been correctly satisfied for any disease. | |
| The hypothesis that microbes attack healthy tissue has been falsified. | |
| The hypothesis that there is human to human transmission of disease via microbes has been falsified. | |
| If you want to know about specific diseases such as measles, influenza, pertussis, and many more, then please look at all of the free resources on our website, where there are numerous videos, short articles, and formal essays. | |
| I would also recommend Mike Stone's Virolygy, one of the largest repositories of articles that refute all aspects of germ theory. | |
| It must be appreciated that the idea that, quote, introduced germs can Can or did attack naive populations has been propagated through misunderstandings or deception. | |
| As we and fellow germ theory critics have shown, the foundational scientific evidence falls flat. | |
| The concept has been falsified upstream, so it is illogical to then expect us to consider lower quality downstream quote evidence as a counter-argument. | |
| No one that has provided refutations of germ theory is obliged to provide alternative explanations as to what causes current or historical illness and death. | |
| However, we have certainly worked on this in our publications, as have our colleagues such as Daniel Reuters, author of Can You Catch a Cold?, as well as Dawn Lester and David Parker, authors of What Really Makes You Ill. | |
| The sooner more people let go of the fear surrounding microbes and the phony wars being waged against them, the sooner we can end situations such as the COVID-19 fraud. | |
| The realization is also vital to avert the ever-encroaching biosecurity surveillance state. | |
| There is a better way to be healthy and prosperous. | |
| Stay tuned as my family and others will continue to show what that looks like. |
