Dr VERNON COLEMAN AND GERM THEORY
I have the greatest respect for Dr Vernon Coleman, as any readers of this blog will know.
So I was shocked to find something in a recent article with which I wholeheartedly disagree, namely his defence of Germ Theory:
See https://expose-news.com/2023/09/06/the-national-health-service-is-not-national
And he’s quite vitriolic on the subject! In the original article he writes:
‘Most of the rather hysterical, sometimes simple minded and often abusive converts who promote the idea that there are no germs (some claim that there are no viruses but this is merely a variation on an unsustainable, pseudoscientific theme) have no medical training or practical experience and don’t realise that they are being used by the Conspirators pushing us towards the Great Reset.
It is easy to prove this.
People who promote the idea that there are no germs still have channels on YouTube. The conspirators don’t want them removed because promoting the idea that germs don’t exist is part of the conspiracy.’
Frankly I fail to see how convincing the entire global population to shut down over an entirely fictitious virus can be seen as ‘promoting the idea that germs don’t exist’
Later he writes:
'I have yet to meet one qualified medical doctor who believes that germs don’t exist. And I honestly don’t see how anyone who understands the human body and health care could possibly believe such nonsense. Are there really any educated people arrogant enough to think they are more intelligent than Fracastorio, van Leeuwenhoek, Petty, Holmes, Fleming, Lister, Semmelweis and Snow?
And remember: those pushing the idea that there are no germs are allowed to remain on YouTube!
Many of those who claim that there are no germs have little or no understanding of the human body and have no practical clinical experience; they are, in short, ultracrepidarians of the worst and most dangerous kind.'

I had to look up ultracrepidarian. Apparently it refers to ‘someone who has no special knowledge of a subject but who expresses an opinion about it’
Well that’s certainly me! And that’s the whole point of the book accompanying this website. I consider it essential that people with a modicum of intelligence and common sense have a right to express a point of view.
In claiming that only people with specialist knowledge be allowed an opinion Coleman plays right into the hands of the globalists who have been relentlessly attempting to convince us we should only Listen to the Experts – presumably the likes of Patrick Vallance and Christopher Witty – rather than use our own brains - and thereby allow ourselves to be injected with entirely experimental medical products that they claim deceitfully to be safe and effective, and that we can now say with total certainty are neither.
See https://lionessofjudah.substack.com/p/global-genocide-excess-mortality
Now I don’t believe for a moment it is Coleman’s intention to ratify the criminal machinations of Vallance and Witty; but I do think it needs underlining that the entire edifice of medical fascism that is being rolled out across the globe rests on the extremely shaky foundation of Pasteur’s Germ Theory.
And yes there are many distinguished physicians who question, not the existence of germs, but the NATURE of germs.
In yesterday’s article Coleman rhetorically asks some questions of ‘the sorry, deluded souls who don’t believe germs exist’:
‘Meanwhile, here are a few questions Do you wash your hands before eating? Do you wash your hands after you’ve been to the loo? If you cut yourself accidentally, do you wash the wound or just leave it dirty? If you answered “yes” to those questions then you believe in germs.’
And in that paragraph it becomes clear where the confusion arises. Nobody to my mind is saying that there aren’t germs that CAN be deleterious to health given an insufficient immune system. The question is not whether germs exist but what characterises them and whether they are the SOLE CAUSE of disease.
I have thought long and hard about this and written extensively on the subject in my book The Disease of Modern Medicine – in Part 1 of the book entitled ‘A Faulty Paradigm’ and particularly in the chapter entitled The Problem of Contagion. In that chapter I quote Renee Dubos who wrote a much vaunted biography of Pasteur but clearly had concerns about the truth of Pasteur’s germ theory. Dubos wrote:
‘“Virulence...is not a permanent, intrinsic property of a given species....It expresses only the ability of a given strain of the infective agent, in a certain growth phase, to produce a pathological state in a particular host, when introduced into that host under well-defined conditions. This definition restores to the word virulence much of its earlier meaning; it refers to the disease and to the host-parasite relationship, rather than to some unique attribute of the microorganism.’ (See Renee Dubos The Bacterial cell 1945, p. 193)
In other words the whole issue of contagion is nothing like as simple as Pasteur liked to make out.
We know this from our own experience. My wife has recently been suffering from a heavy cold. We sleep in the same bed in a small bedroom. I have greatly impaired immunity having no tonsils and no spleen. If Pasteur was right you’d have thought by now I’d have contracted the cold wouldn’t you? I haven’t. I’m absolutely fine after almost ten days cohabiting at close quarters with my wife suffering all the symptoms of a heavy cold.
We all experience this. Sometimes we ‘get it’. Sometimes we don’t. There appears to be no rhyme nor reason. It depends what ‘it’ is , and it depends on how we are. It’s a symbiotic relationship. Sometimes ‘it’ isn’t a problem at all and sometimes it is.
Dr Coleman is right. Noone in their right mind would say that germs don’t exist. We are entirely constructed of germs – layers upon layer of them. A large percentage of our DNA is microbial. All that’s lacking from his essays is an explanation of how germs work.
Why do we take probiotics and prebiotics? Becuse we recognise we need to maintain microbial diversity in our intestines. We need the germs!
So the problem is not the germs. The problem is the way in which we have come to demonise the germs.
I clearly remember a conversation with a young mother who was convinced the best way to give your child robust health was to allow the child to play in the dirt as often as possible.
When we observe our domestic animals how do they keep themselves clean...? They lick themselves all over - including their private parts. They’re not afraid of the germs. They engage with them.
My wife recently had a conversation with someone who habitually walks around barefoot. And this person never gets ill. And she’s convinced it’s because as she walks around barefoot she’s constantly inviting in germs transdermally through her feet and her immune system has become extraordinarily robust as a result. I’m sure she’s right.
In my book I’ve quoted from an article I came across many years ago entitled 20 GROSS WAYS TO STIMULATE YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM. These incuded eating your bogies, not washing your hands, and generally breaking all the so called rules of hygiene.
Which is not to say hygiene is not important, particularly when people are sick or vulnerable. Florence Nightingale understood this. Her success as a nurse was entirely built on her understanding of the importance of fresh air, sunlight and good hygiene. But she also excoriated the idiocies being perpetuated by the likes of Louis Pasteur, with their incessant need to find and identify specific viruses and bugs. Because as she pointed out in her famous Notes – diseases are not cats and dogs. A disease is a condition and the only way to treat a disease is to treat the condition that occasioned it in the first place. See the chapter in my book The Disease of Specificity
It is my belief we haven’t begun to understand the intricacies of the so called microbiome of which we are constructed.
Five years ago I went to the dentist because of a persistent problem with a tooth. The dentist told me three of my teeth needed extracting and he’d have to book me into the hospital. I said thank you but no thank! I didn’t feel ready to part with 3 of my teeth. Since then I lost a filling and now have a yawning cavity at the back of my mouth. This cavity has become a sort of barometer for my state of oral hygiene. I’ve learned that I can avoid any problems if I keep my mouth clean and my ph sufficiently high. So I brush my teeth regularly with bicarbonate of soda. Normally I have no problems.
Recently my daughter persuaded me to go to a local fast food restaurant and I consumed some highly spiced chicken wings. They tasted delicious. But they were clearly a challenge for the microbiome in my mouth because for some days since that meal I have had a nagging pain in the cavity occasioned by the lost filling. The same happens if I get lazy and brush my teeth with toothpaste instead of bicarbonate.
I’ve noticed that if I’m going to have a problem with that cavity it’s always when I’ve had either poultry or sea food. And it is very clear to me that the bacteria present in both create a disruption in the microbial balance in my mouth. So most of the time I avoid both. And if I do get a problem I increase the brushing with bicarb and take extra vitamins and supplements to ensure any ‘infection’ is quickly eradicated. Infection is only ever the development of a diseased state due to an acidic condition (low ph) that means the cells of the body cannot respirate properly.
Germs per se are not half the problem they are made out to be. As Pasteur supposedly realised on his death bed the problem is not the germ but the terrain - that is the environment in which the germ/microbe finds itself. It will only express itself as sickness if the terrain is polluted or poisoned, and the particular microbe is inimical to the functioning of the particular organism in which it finds itself.
The terrain will be polluted or poisoned if there is insufficient oxygen circulating in the tissues. There will be insufficient oxygen circulating in the tissues if the ph levels of the blood is too low, that is if the organism is saturated with acids and poisons from bad diet, bad air, bad water, the necessity to wear facemasks or any other condition that mitigates against optimum metabolism.
The point I'm trying to make is this: I have a specific vulnerability that makes me susceptible to the specific bacteria – or germs - present in poultry and sea food. I can avoid any problem at all by avoiding poultry or seafood. And if I were to have the cavity filled I would probably not have as problem at all!
As it is I can resolve the problem by increasing my intake of vitamins, nutrients and supplements and extra oral hygiene...
The problem is not the germs/bacteria in the poultry and seafood but the specific vulnerability I have, occasioned by the cavity. Millions of people can consume poultry and seafood with no repercussions at all.
IT’S NO DIFFERENT WITH COVID19 OR ANY OTHER MANUFACTURED ‘VIRUS’...
Those at risk are those with compromised immune systems through age or pre existing disease conditions.
The criminal part of the whole COVID19 Scamdemic is the targeting of these very same people with pre-existing vulnerabilities for vaccination. Vaccination adds an increased payload of toxicity and almost guarantees the vulnerable individual becomes MORE vulnerable – not less.
Like taking me out to dinner in a Seafood Restaurant....
I’m not an expert. I’m not a specialist. I’m not a medical professional. But I’m 62 years old and have seen what works and what doesn’t work. It’s called experience. We all have experience. I suggest we stop listening to the experts and start paying attention to our experience.
Then perhaps next time somebody tells you to put a mask on or take an entirely untested and experimental vaccine you’ll have the courage to tell them where to stick it....
Which is precisely what Dr Coleman has been advocating since the outset of the pandemic...which is why I shall continue to listen to him with great respect, while retaining a mind of my own, even if at risk of being called an ultracrepidarian...
