Edward Harold Kass Quote: The Truth About Tuberculosis and Medical Half-Truths

„We had accepted some half truths and had stopped searching for the whole truths. The principal half truths were that medical research had stamped out the great killers of the past – tuberculosis, diphtheria, pneumonia, puerperal sepsis, etc. The data on deaths from tuberculosis show that the mortality rate from this disease has been declining steadily since the middle of the 19th century and was not altered measurably by the discovery of the tubercle bacillus, the advent of the tuberculin test, the appearance of BCG vaccination, the widespread use of mass screening, the intensive anti-tuberculosis campaigns, or the discovery of streptomycin. Similar trends in mortality have been reported with respect to diphtheria, scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, pertussis, measles, and many others.“

"It is a well-known fact that it was improved living conditions that dramatically reduced mortality rates from common infectious diseases—and that this happened before most vaccinations were introduced." Anthony R. Mawson

"If you listen to the general public, the world is repeatedly plagued by terrible viral epidemics. The latest horror story dominating the headlines is the so-called coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. And the population is also being terrorized with frightening reports about measles, swine flu, bird flu (H5N1), SARS, hepatitis C, AIDS, polio, and BSE. However, what is overlooked is that the existence and pathogenic/lethal effects of these “pathogens” have never been proven. The fact that the medical establishment and the media that follow it nevertheless claim that the evidence has been provided is solely due to the fact that a few decades ago, direct virus detection was abandoned in favor of indirect “detection” methods (including antibody and PCR tests). However, “modern” methods of virus detection such as PCR “say nothing about how a virus replicates, which animal carries this virus, or how it makes people sick,” as more than a dozen critical top virologists note in the journal Science. “It's like looking at a person's fingerprints to determine if they have bad breath.”" Torsten Engelbrecht | Claus Köhnlein

"It must give every serious-minded person pause to reflect that, despite the best healthcare facilities, diseases continue to spread. We have high standards of hygiene that control factors such as diet, water, clothing, everyday items, industry, construction, waste, and climatic influences to prevent harm to health. Its most outstanding achievement is the eradication of epidemics; its most visible failure is the steady rise in disease rates, especially for heart disease and cancer." Dr. med. Heinrich Will

"The Germ Theory of infectious contagious disease is convenient because it provides what every simplistic view of a problem seeks before all else: a culprit, an invisible hare for the hounds to chase in their costly research labs, universities, hospitals, and drug factories. The fact that the hare can never be caught is the perfect guarantee that their race will never finish, their demands for funding will never cease, and their ability to generate profits for the drug and chemical corporations will continue to grow."
