I learned the true cause of my grandfather's death only after research on another topic led me to his death certificate: TB. Wow. My mother had kept that from me, but then stories she'd told me about TB, living in NYC, started to make sense.
I knew that my grandfather had become very sick. "War injuries," my mother told me. My grandmother took care of him when he became bedridden. He had had to quit his job, so my grandmother went to work. When he became too sick to leave alone, she quit her day job and got a night job. She watched over my grandfather during the day -- and tried to sleep -- while my mother and her younger brother went to school (Mother's older brother in Europe during WWII.)
Finally, that became too much. My mother had to quit high school and become the breadwinner, which she did. My grandmother nursed her husband until it became clear he needed hospitalization. Hospitalized at the Bronx VA hospital, he passed away in Apr 1944.
My mother's family lived in a small Brooklyn apartment. No heat...a "cold water flat," as they were called. Quarters were close, to say the least. Despite all that "exposure" to my ill grandfather, my grandmother didn't "catch" TB. My mother did not "catch" TB. Her younger brother did not "catch" TB.
After seeing my grandfather's death certificate, this story came back around my for reconsideration. This most "deadly," highly contagious disease somehow managed to skip over three other people living in a small Brooklyn apartment with someone dying of this dreaded condition.
Glad to see that you do not believe the myth that badgers with TB are contagious and can infect cows.
I wonder if you know about the farmer and self-taught scientist Mark Purdey who was investigating bovine TB but was silenced (and eventually died at a relatively young age) after revealing the true cause of mad cow disease (BSE) in Britain? He was shot at, his house was set on fire, his phone was tapped and he was closed down by the UK government vets and agriculture department. Just before he died he had started looking into the real cause of bovine TB and had found that bTB was most prevalent in areas with highly acidic soil and high levels of iron. He realised that the former tradition of putting lime on fields as a way of reducing soil acidity had probably prevented TB in the past but this practice was no longer common and that its decline could be a reason for increases in TB.
After his death he was written off as an amateur and his website was hijacked and directed to a porn site. I think he was a hero and people need to know about him and could learn from his findings. His book, published posthumously, is still in print and worth reading: Animal Pharm by Mark Purdey.
Sally Morrell has also highlighted the link between exposure to high levels of iron and TB in humans in the article below.

I am so pleased that you are interested in finding out more about Mark Purdey!
I mentioned that his website was hijacked and the URL is directed to a porn site, which is a trick often used by those who try to control us. I found a way to use web archive to get to his website and this is a link to his comments on TB in cattle:
Isn't it ironic that the very thing that cured TB was/is the very thing they are trying to kill, using fear, AGAIN, telling us will cause cancer. My 10 yr old grandbaby told me, her mother told her, that the sun will give you skin cancer. I guess I could have been more delicate in my response, but I'm so tired of this shit. I told her, "That's a lie, don't believe it. Only those who do not sit in the sun get cancer".
My experience with winter sickness lead me to investigate tuberculosis. For some reason I equated my pneumonia with TB as kissing cousins. During sickness I would sit outside on sunny winter days. It felt wonderful. Heavy breathing became softer, no coughing with the sun on my face. When I came back into the house, symptoms returned, so I kept my bedroom window open. Tons of blankets and a cap on my head, comfy as a bug in a rug, almost no coughing during the night. That sealed the deal for me.
As far as contagion goes, I coughed, sneezed, spat, choked, vomited and spread enough "germs" to start a plague, yet no other person in my household got sick. Gee, wonder why.
HERD IMMUNITY, TEXAS CATTLE FEVER, SAME GOES FOR Bird Flu, Covid, Measles, Mumps, Polio, and other bacterial infections,
I have to ask a question. How often should a person bathe with antibacterial soaps? Vs Ivory, Fells Napha, Dove. The same goes for washing clothes and or bathing your pet?
“I think showering is mostly for aesthetic reasons,” says Dr. Elaine Larson, an infectious disease expert and associate dean for research at Columbia University School of Nursing. “People think they’re showering for hygiene or to be cleaner, but bacteriologically, that’s not the case.”
Larson’s research has shown that the antibacterial soaps and cleaning products many people use in their homes are no better than plain soap at reducing the risk of infectious diseases. And when it comes to showering, all that scrubbing and exfoliating doesn’t amount to much.
“Bathing will remove odor if you’re stinky or have been to the gym,” she says. However, in terms of protecting you from illness, washing your hands regularly is likely sufficient.
Excessive all-over bathing may even increase your risk for specific health issues. Dry, cracked skin creates gaps that allow infection-causing germs to enter. That means frequent bathing when your skin is already dry, and especially as you age, when your skin becomes thinner and less hydrated, may increase the risk of contracting an illness, Larson says.
No sun during winter means SAD, or if in a hospital or nursing home for long periods, Sundowners Syndrome develops. Our doctors are too poorly trained to add 2 + 2 nd get 4.
My dad never used arm deodorant, but he used Lava, as he was a Boilermaker. I doubt he bathed daily; it was likely a leftover habit from being a Paratrooper during World War II, both clean water and SOAP WERE SCARCE. Mom, took his clothes to the laundry mat.
I don't use antibiotic soaps, I'm super busy, and I may rinse and dry my hands. I am rarely sick. I never experience hacking or coughing unless I rush to eat. A veggie garden and 14 hens keep me outside in the sun. Nor do I spit outside, always into a Kleenex, since the idiots did away with ladies' handkerchiefs. I miss them; they clean my glasses, if they're clean, no special cloth or spray needed. Now that men are using traditional bandanas to cover shaved heads in the sun, I might have to give them a try. On second thought, since I quilt nd crochet, I can make ladies nice-looking handkerchiefs.
One of the biggest lies ever told. my wife's mother used to work in a TB clinic in the 60's, and my wife hung around there as a child. Needless to say, she never contracted TB.
As always the dead hand of big pharma will be at play. No doubt they were warming up the public for the vaccination or were flogging a Heath Robinson cure-all.
What none of these experts have addressed is whether TB or consumption is in fact a real standalone disease, or is it just a made up construct? Like say Aids. For once no one is blaming a virus so we can at least avoid the quagmire of the no-virus cult. In those days sanitation was rudimentary, people cooked inside on open fireplaces burning whatever, breathing in toxic fumes, they smoked rough tobacco, they did all kinds of unhealthy things. Maybe this led to lung issues. Infections were treated with arsenic and mercury and other nasties because that was the medical practice of the day. That was all they had pre antibiotics. Today someone who tests "positive" for the TB bacillus is prescribed a long course of antibiotics, is that not so? But, as the article suggests, this bacterial pathogen may not be the root cause of the disease - if in fact there is a distinct disease at all.
As Covid and the Aids debacle showed, testing "positive" to dubious biomarkers on a pharma test kit is not really a true indication of an underlying infection at all. It should certainly not be used as the primary means of making a diagnosis.
But that's what doctors rely on. Follow the science. Even if it leads them off a cliff, like it did for Aids. But there is more money in inventing diseases than in truthfulness. When health became a trillion dollar industry thanks to the Rockefeller monopoly on allopathic medicine, truth went out the window:).
Thank you for the very interesting article. I recently watched Clarkson farm and was wondering the same during the tb debacle. Truly painful watching scenes showing how the chickens had to be boarded for avian flu for 6 months. The trouble is most of us live outside of the covid con. These poor farmers are harassed by asinine policies. My heart goes out to any farmer having to put up with this shite. complete
This reminds me that my college scout (probably a politically incorrect term now but this was the 1950s) told me that he had TB and praised the college for sending him to a sanatorium in Switzerland where he was cured by that fresh air and sun.
Also, Chopin is a case of one who suffered from TB from an early age and died a terrible death from its complication of pericarditis at age 39. I think just one other member of his family had TB, the rest, like his mother, never had it in spite of living in the same residence.
I ran into an argument about cat and dog feeding, specifically whether to use wet or dry food. Very few understood that neither is inherently good. So I sent them your articles on food. You need to Address water. Not only does tap water contain chlorine and fluoride, but it also turns out to be overloaded with nickel.

"Dr. W. B. Clark, a well-known physician, insists that vaccination is the cause of cancer.
He says: “A cancer was practically unknown until cowpox vaccination began to be introduced. Cancer, I believe, is a disease of cell life, (a) disturbance of its equilibrium, manifested by the rapid growth of cells and the consequent building up of a tumor. I have had to do with at least 200 cases of cancer, and here declare that I never saw a case of cancer in an unvaccinated person.
“The way vaccination causes cancer is like this: It takes 21 years to make a man and but four to make a cow, the former being of slow cell growth and the latter rapid. To put the rapid-growing cells, or protoplasm, of a diseased animal (in a condition of virulent infectious activity) into the slow-growing cells of man, is to disturb the equilibrium of cell life and create that disparity, disarrangement and disorganization which, when the season for cancer comes late in life, results in cancer, if not tuberculosis earlier.”".

The greatest racket ever. Unfalsifiable claims backed by governments.

Cured by fresh air and sun. I wish we’d go back to old-fashioned sleeping porches.
Same with Doc. Holliday.
