What causes influenza?
Discussion
Ding ding! What is a virus Alex? Government coverups for $1000 please. Science can’t seem to decide whether viruses are biologically alive or not. They’re nano syringes filled with RNA and a cellular command to replicate until cellular apoptosis occurs. Viruses are biology’s hackers.
There are probably many different causes that all have the same flu-like symptoms which is likely why there is no "cure" in the first place. The correct answer is that we don't know and that is ok, there's allot humans don't know and will never know.
We can blame viruses, witches, the gods, bats or the unvaccinated if you really need a scapegoat to help you deal with the anxiety caused by uncertainty.
I'm not vaccinated against covid and I've never been vaccinated for the flu either so I don't see why I would be blaming myself. Unlike you, I haven't crafted a worldview out of whatever I want to believe with no evidence. This is the attitude that has left so many people in your country dying of AIDS.
Buddy, AIDS is not what you think it is. It is a disease caused my malnutrition and poor living conditions. You really seem to be disconnected from reality.
The "evidence" you rely on is what others tell you to be proof. The evidence you should instead rely on is what you verify yourself.
I visit townships weekly where the poor live to pickup my employees and there are steams of sewage flowing between their houses with people walking up to their ankles in shit. Kids are playing in this shit. There are piles of rubbish everywhere and the people burn this to stay warm. The smell of the burning rubbish is worse than the sewage. Their diet mainly consist of maize meal and that is what most eat day in and day out. Many are alcoholics that drink home brewed beer that contain old alkaline batteries for extra kick. The people that live in these conditions are the ones dying from "AIDS", not the middle or upper income classes. HIV is the perfect scapegoat for the SA government so that they have something invisible to blame for their failures.
Weird how we in the west had children from middle and upper class families getting HIV and dying of AIDS and then suddenly as soon as we stopped letting gay people donate blood that all stopped? It's almost like there was something other than battery acid and malnutrition in that blood.
Weird indeed, I guess the people in the west are just fragile when it comes to physical and mental health these days and I don't mean it in an insulting way at all. There is something strange going on, because in rural Africa we just don't experience what we hear from the rest of the world. Covid was n non-issue, AIDS here is caused by living conditions and not sexual orientation. If AIDS/HIV were sexually transmitted there would be far less africans that I can assure you.
This was the 1980's, nothing to do with modern fragility. Note, the limited research on gays in South Africa shows that they do have elevated rates of HIV compared to the rest of the population.

You keep missing the point I made yesterday. Stop relying on what others say and accepting their word as proof and make your own observations and come to your own conclusions. I know what they say about AIDS, I know what they say about Covid, but what they say do not match reality as I observe it with my own eyes.
There is an agenda behind the HIV narrative just like there is an agenda behind Covid, Climate change or whatever boogyman they come up with and you fall for it. They are lying and once you stop outsourcing your perception of reality and start observing the world around you it will become crystal clear.
Just because a peer reviewed paper says something does not mean it is accurate. You need to verify the validity and once you start doing that you are in for a rude awakening.
No, your point is pretty clear. I simply don't agree with you. You say I have to look at the world around me but you choose to make assumptions about the "fragility" of where I live because our experience doesn't fit your narrative. Blindly disregarding any and all evidence just because it comes from a scientist is as bad as blindly believing anything just because it comes from one.
You believe you are in possession of secret knowledge but it's interesting that your secret knowledge makes it so that you don't have to worry about anything. How convenient.
It might help to see the world through the view of an infectious virus. Viruses are opportunistic in every way. A vaccine must prevent transmission of viral load from one person to another. Our immune system deals with small amounts of pathogenic substances constantly. We would literally be dead within hours if it didn’t.
A vaccine must prevent infection, either by preventing the virus from accessing cells for reproduction or by preparing the immune system in advance so that antibodies are already present and ready to be manufactured.
A vaccine must prevent disease, in most cases this is accomplished by preventing transmission and infection.
Vaccines are not effective if they fail to prevent these things, as viruses replicate at astounding rates in a diseased person’s body. Every reproductive iteration yields a statistical chance that the virus will mutate in an advantageous way. Because vaccines are static, an advantageous mutation renders the entire population at risk. Respiratory viruses are particularly infectious for three primary reasons. First, they don’t cause debilitating illness before they reach peak viral load in the mucosa. Second, droplet transmission via sneezing and coughing is a perfect method of transmission for fragile viruses that literally die within seconds outside the body, third the mucosa is isolated from the body’s immune response and as such provides a reservoir for the virus to reach respiratory epithelial cells and infect them.
The mRNA vaccines are literally endangering the entire human population in an attempt to save a group of people who have immune systems too weak for survival. I’m sorry if it’s your loved one who is this case, but folks, not everyone is fit for survival. Special accommodations for disadvantaged people is one thing, promiscuous DNA genetic engineering on a global scale is the wrong answer. In the long run, humanity will be lucky to survive this era, we are just one pernicious virus or bacteria away from being wiped out, it literally happens every day to other species on this planet. Why not us?
