As an RN educated in the late '60's in Central California I have had an interest in a book used in my education titled THE MERCK MANUAL. Interestingly, the "Manual" changed completely from the years 1899 to 1900. The 1899 manual is a homeopathic outline of all "conditions" and the different treatments available. The 1900 manual switches to fake germ-based "medicine" and pharma and calls the "virus" the "tiniest parasite "...fyi

Beyond interesting; it’s enlightening! There are two causal chains here; one imaginary and one causal, and along those twin rails runs a bullet train that takes us all the way to where we are today with SV40 promoters and enhancers. Underneath it all are two paradigms; ignorance hiding behind a narrative we call germ theory and enlightenment that leads us to the promised land of terrain theory! These two twin tracks give us our freedom if we know how to use them, and gives a whole new meaning to the phrase;” just follow the science.”

Great piece! My only thought as I read through your essay is that the arc of medicine is really less about the truth as it is about narrative. Narrative driven by power, ego and money that has nothing to do with patient health. I have listened to a podcast by Forest Maready and found his work to be fascinating. Your essay takes my understanding of "polio" to a new level.

If the story of polio was so full of misinformation, misdirection and falsehoods; aka a con, what else is in our medical landscape that is based on crappy science, a maniacal commitment to an idea and the corrosive influence of big money. I suspect it is a long list.

If someone has produced a chart of the top 25 - 50 pharmaceuticals, the supposed disease they are designed to treat, a description of what the real condition is, and alternatives for treatment I would like to see it. The book you referenced in another post, School of Natural Healing, seems like a step in that direction. I will be ordering soon.

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a polio victim. In reading about his history, I noted that his family had many ice cream socials in the summertime and he loved ice cream. Dr. Frederick Klenner of North Carolina did polio research...and he got a small town in North Carolina to ban ice cream truck vendors from its streets for a summer...and the polio rate fell 90%. He said that their stop and go opening of the ice cream containers caused an increase in bacteria; as milk and sugar were the perfect medium for the growth of bacteria. In 1953, I had a frightening experience myself, when I was in a Penn State dormitory. I woke up at 1 AM in the morning and my left arm was frozen and wouldn't move. I remembered reading about Sister Kenny in Australia and her water treatment. So I got into the shower and started alternating hot and cold water on my arm and body...praying all the time. Life came back into my arm at dawn. I never reported it, because i didn't want to be kicked out of school. Looking back as to the causes...primarily cooked food, no fresh food, smoking and being extremely depressed over breaking up with a boyfriend.

Excellent commentary. Too bad information like this never gets the publicity it deserves, and what would open people's eyes to the deception we are continually being handed from the powers that be.

A bit of irony in this story is that the product being poisoned wasn’t a healthy fruit or vegetable, but rather sugar. Take away the toxin(arsenic) and you’re still left with a toxin, refined sugar.

Thank you. All so-called viral diseases are forms of poisoning. It seems there are standard suspects that have been known about for centuries if not millenia.

Incredible work.

Well done. Shared links to your books.

Love the whole thing! FWIW, I am one who appreciated the simplified-for-a-six-year-old explanation at the end to reinforce what I read.

Enlightening as usual, thank you. I always search for the existence of possible logical consistency gaps. What you describe is likely true, but there is one nagging possible inconsistency at the periphery of this discussion. It centers around the possibility that there is perhaps a viral-like cause as well. Polio has also shown up from Polio vaccination itself and in these instances the blame is typically attributed to incomplete activation of the virus. The core of my question is that we already know that living organisms can copy certain molecular patterns; is there something in the poorly manufactured vaccines that while perhaps non-viral in the classically described viral sense drives bodily production of a harmful or series of harmful substances?

When I was 12 years old (not too long ago), I read every single story Conan Doyle wrote about Sherlock Holmes. I would be remiss if I did not tell you that your methods remind me of the brilliant detective, very often working against the techniques of the inept Scotland Yard. I am grateful to Fate that I found your essays.
