Kill the germs? That’s ridiculous. There are too many of them, and most of them we need anyway. What would happen if we did not have bacteria to decompose all the dead plants and animals? We would be living on a garbage heap called Earth. You have organisms inside your body that help you survive. If they die, YOU die! Bacteria and viruses are an important part of the ecosystem of life, and this cannot be overlooked. We always have had bacteria and viruses, and we always will have them. What concerns me is the fact that for decades, Fauci has been funding experiments to modify the genetic composition of viruses to make them more transmissible. Remember, viruses are not living things, just genetic material inside of a shell made of mostly proteins. So, these genetic modifications are possible in laboratories. By doing this, science is not creating life. They are creating the ability of the human body to use the modified genetic material in the virus to modify life in the human body by creating new proteins.
So, viruses can not be killed because they are not alive. Viruses can only be modified or dismantled. But bacteria can be killed. The method of killing bacteria makes use of stuff called antibiotics. Anti means against. Biotics comes from the root word bios, meaning life. The word antibiotic means AGAINST LIFE. Against the life of what? The germ, specifically bacteria. Almost 40 years after that was written, glyphosate, a very powerful antibiotic, the main ingredient in weed killers and agricultural techniques has gotten into many of our food and water supplies, killing our microbiome resulting in significant chronic disease.
Bacteria are alive, just like you and I, and we do not wish to die. One of the functions of life is to survive and stay alive! When bacteria encounter antibiotics, they fight for their lives. As they fight over generations, they become stronger, more resistant to antibiotics. Soon we end up with “super germs” that commonly used antibiotics do not seem to have any effect on. This is one reason why venereal diseases associated with bacteria got to be such a problem. The drugs of choice were antibiotics, and the stuff was used so loosely that some unscrupulous people even got shots of it to “protect” them against the disease. Little did they know that this procedure gave the bacteria associated with venereal disease a chance to become more and more resistant to antibiotics.
Antibiotics defeat their own purpose by creating drug resistant strains of bacteria. An example is penicillin, a well-known antibiotic, used so much that we now have strains of bacteria that produce penicillinase. Penicillinase is an enzyme that destroys penicillin! Makes you wonder, doesn’t it? No wonder they call them wonder drugs.
Don’t get the idea that antibiotics are never helpful. They are helpful sometimes. For example, if you would be unfortunate enough to have an overwhelming infection in your body because of a serious wound that was not cleaned properly, antibiotics may very well save your life. (When it comes to saving lives, my hat is off to the medical profession. Our emergency medical care is the best in the world. But when it comes to taking care of routine illnesses and chronic diseases, modern medicine is doing a horrible job).
What is meant by a wound that was not cleaned properly? The skin is a natural defense or resistance of the body to the outside world. When the skin is broken, the resistance of that area is obviously decreased. The natural and logical thing to do is cleanse the wound. Cleansing begins with the flowing of blood from inside the body to outside, carrying with it any potentially harmful substances. This should be supplemented by soap and running water. Even animals cleanse their wounds. It is common sense. If a wound was not cleaned properly, and a severe infection is given the opportunity to set in, local antibiotics might be necessary.
What we must be on the lookout for is the indiscriminate use of antibiotics. What is meant by that? When a child gets a cold, it was because he or she had low resistance to a virus. The mother takes the child to the doctor, who will usually prescribe an antibiotic. But antibiotics have no effect on viruses. Antibiotics are for bacterial infections, not viral.
Antibiotics will not help the body get rid of a cold. Then why to some doctors give the antibiotics? To satisfy the child’s parents and fatten their wallets. Antibiotics are a huge money maker, and that’s indiscriminate use. Antibiotics continue to be one of the most frequently prescribed drugs in America.
But you might say, the antibiotics are given to a person with a cold to prevent any secondary infections. I hear that one a lot. Not only is a secondary infection to a cold rare, but the antibiotic itself is more apt to CAUSE a secondary infection by destroying the normal flora and disrupting the equilibrium or harmony of the body, resulting in the growth of potentially harmful organisms.
Here’s an example. Think of a man who has a kidney with low resistance. All parts of his body are strong except the left kidney. This man encounters some potentially harmful bacteria. Where will the bacteria thrive? Obviously in the part with the lowest resistance to it, IF the resistance is low enough, and in this example, it is. So, now he has a bacterial infection in his left kidney. Did the bacteria put the low resistance in the kidney? No, the bacteria thrive there because the resistance was already low. The man goes to the doctor who prescribes an antibiotic.
Does the antibiotic go to the left kidney and nowhere else? I laugh as I am reading this almost 40 years after I wrote it because Pfizer and Moderna tried to convince the public that their Covid-19 shot would stay in the shoulder muscle at the site of injection. Anyone with God given intelligence and the ability to use it knows that is not what happens when you inject something into a human body. No, the drug enters the bloodstream and circulates through the entire body, some of it reaching the kidney. Does the antibiotic kill only the “bad bacteria” and none of the “good bacteria” of the normal flora? No, antibiotics are not specific, and this is where we get into the problem of antibiotics inducing secondary infections. From Basic Microbiology Third Edition, page 313:
“Once the normal flora is established, it will actually be beneficial to the host (you) by preventing the overgrowth of undesirable organisms. Destruction of the normal flora frequently disrupts the status quo, resulting in the growth of harmful organisms. This can be seen following the prolonged administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics.”
Here is another interesting quote from the article “Second thoughts on the Germ Theory”, by Rene J. Dubos, that appeared in Scientific American, May 1955 issue, page 33: “…it has been repeatedly observed that vigorous treatment with drugs of almost any type of virulent infection in a human being may have the paradoxical effect of bringing about another type of infection, caused by the proliferation of otherwise innocuous fungi and bacteria. We are beginning, in fact, to witness the appearance of man-made diseases, caused by the rapid changes in human ecology brought about by the new therapeutic procedures.”
Decades later we are still witnessing man-made diseases, caused by therapeutic procedures. They call this IATROGENESIS, meaning doctor or drug induced illness.
Alright, let’s say enough of the antibiotic gets to the kidney and wipes out the “bad guys”. Now what? Well, the poor man thinks he is alright, but he isn’t. He still has a kidney with low resistance for reasons you will understand later. The man encounters more potential harmful bacteria that will thrive in the left kidney because it is still weak.
The treatment is more antibiotics, but this time a little scar tissue is produced in the kidney. He will end up in a cycle of symptoms and treatments and may have his kidney surgically removed. They may even try a transplant, which makes as much sense as replacing a flickering light bulb (due to faulty wiring) with a new one, expecting it to not flicker.
Excellent as always! Thank you very much!
