Introduction

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction … between true and false no longer exists.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), in The Origins of Totalitarianism

Corruption of science can now be seen everywhere: global warming, gender studies, transhumanism, toxic pharmaceutical and medical products (incl. vaccines and mRNA jabs), corrupt medical science, falsification of history, fabricated journalism, distorted education (“snow is black”), obsolete Darwinism, the materialistic worldview in which no spiritual realm exists but only dead matter, and so on. As I show in my book The Predators versus The People, all these scams, lies and hoaxes, and many more, can be traced back to the secret global domination project that has been underway for over 500 years.

In recent years, two strange theories counter to mainstream scientific views have come to the forefront, both with quite a few followers in the alternative community:

the “flat earth theory” and the “no-germ theory”, very similar to the “terrain theory” and the “no-virus theory”. As for “flat earth”, there are many indications that it’s a psy-op by the CIA. It can however be debunked elegantly in two minutes, see the video at the end of the linked article, where one and the same sunset is shown three times, first from ground level, a bit later from a drone at 100 meters, and then at 300 meters high. After seeing it, you won’t spend one minute more of your life on flat earth theory!

It gets more complicated with the no-germ/terrain theory. The proponents claim - with great conviction and certainty - to have absolute scientific proof that pathogenic germs either do not exist, or play no causal role, and that four factors (grouped under the name “terrain”) cause most diseases in humans or animals:

1. Toxins - hidden in our food, water, medical treatments (incl. vaccines) and environment, but also voluntary drug consumption (medical and recreational).

2. Radiation.

3. Stress.

4. Nutritional deficiencies, imbalances or excesses.

These terrain causes are indeed very important in modern life - lack of exercise could be added as a fifth cause. We should all strive to minimize our exposure to them, as to prevent the many chronic and metabolic diseases, including cancer, which massively affect humanity in the 21^st century. And also, to nurture strong immune systems, in order to successfully resist infections.

But wait: do infectious diseases, caused by germs like viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites, even exist?? Or is this just another malicious fraud of the greedy and corrupted Medical Industrial Complex? To make my position on the latter clear, I call them Pharmafia: The New Merchants of Death. See Chapter B34 of my book, for this occasion available on my website. Others have already published detailed technical critiques on no-germ theories, e.g. on The Contagion Myth and in Hammond’s important article on virus sequencing. Both discredit the main views and claims of two important terrain proponents, Thomas Cowan and Andrew Kaufman. But the no-germ theory is so completely at odds with my 50-year experience as a veterinarian and farmer, that I would like to tell you a few stories.

Dengue

About 20 years ago (before cell phone radiation) I, as a vet, made it my task to nurse three guests at my home in Costa Rica: strong, healthy, and well-fed and humored young men, who had just returned from a stress-free beach vacation (thus, hardly any terrain problems, I would say). A few days later they became suddenly very ill, with high fever, severe joint and muscle pain, and profuse sweating at night. After 20 years in the tropics, I suspected a first-time dengue infection: spectacular, but not dangerous (yet a second infection may lead to serious complications). On the second day, one of them felt so bad that he wanted to die! Then they suddenly recovered. Yet, quite typical for dengue, the fever returned, but only for one night. There the story ended, and they happily continued their stay.

A Dutch veterinary colleague, who lived in the Philippines in the 80’s, told me a very similar dengue tale: he, his wife (a medical doctor) and their children were unable to leave bed for three days, due to sudden severe fever and pain. Fortunately, they were saved by their trusted housekeeper.

You can hear similar dengue stories in over 100 tropical countries, but not in cool climates. Because tiger mosquitos, the principal vector for the dengue virus, don’t live there. I sincerely don’t know what the terrain explanation for dengue is: if all viruses are denied, their vectors will surely suffer the same fate.

Heartwater

In the 80s, I worked on a large beef and dairy cattle farm in Mozambique. One regular and nasty problem was that the most beautiful and fastest growing beef calves (few terrain troubles) would suddenly drop dead. After necropsy, the fairly typical lesions of heartwater were found, a bacterial disease caused by Ehrlichia ruminantium and transmitted by Amblyomma ticks, in tropical areas. According to the present state of affairs, “no effective vaccination strategy exists”. Yet 40 years ago we found a solution: we knew that calves infected at a very young age do not get ill but acquire a solid immunity.

We were able to obtain a small volume of Ehrlichia infected blood from a lab (stored in liquid nitrogen). Periodically, I injected this blood intravenously into young dairy calves, to multiply the germs. At the peak of fever, I would draw some infected blood, make it non-clotting, and then inject it as a life vaccine into the veins of young beef calves, which I also gave an ear tag. It soon became too dangerous on the farm (due to the civil war with RENAMO) and I had to leave. But the manager told me later that his herdsmen were deeply impressed: those tagged calves didn’t die anymore! While nothing in the “terrain” had changed, the life Ehrlichia vaccine had of course immunized them.

Foot-and-mouth disease

Also in Mozambique, an experienced livestock manager told me how he and others used to deal with foot-and-mouth disease, a highly contagious viral disease with very typical symptoms, nasty but rarely fatal, and with a long recovery period (in Africa, that is; in Europe “stamping out” was used, the last case was in Bulgaria in 2011). To shorten the course, the manager would pass a cloth through the blistered mouth of the first affected animal, and then through the entire, still perfectly healthy and symptomless herd. About a week later these animals would all become ill, with all the typical symptoms, almost like a copy-paste. What do you think: was the week of delay of the symptoms due to the incubation period of the virus, or to a change in terrain? Note that in the no-virus view, the only change in terrain was the passage of a clean cloth – without virus, because viruses don’t exist.

From my childhood in the 1960s I remember similar “measles parties”: all children who hadn’t had measles yet were sent to the first patient’s home: this way the parents quickly got rid of the nursing troubles, while all children became immune - for life, in the case of measles. My Costa Rican neighbor, also in his early seventies, just told me the same story from his youth.

Flu

Then there’s the flu experience, which people from all over the globe share: typically, people (from different terrain backgrounds) come together, and one has a cough. A few days later some partakers start to feel sick and develop flu-like respiratory symptoms. Then some housemates follow, and sometimes the family doctor too, maybe followed by his family members, and so on. During a severe flu, up to 20% of the population – with extremely different terrain backgrounds - can develop the relatively uniform flu symptoms, a few days after contact with flu-affected people: CONTAGION WRITTEN LARGE! The same applies to acute diarrheal infections as dysentery and cholera, more and more seen under homeless people in the USA.

Plants

We are fortunate to have an organic vegetable garden and a small food forest. I tried out about 150 different plant species and varieties, from strawberries to bananas, to find the ones suited for our area. I learned that plants can also suffer from transmissible diseases. From Wikipedia: “Panama disease [a fungus] is one of the most destructive plant diseases ... it was first reported in Australia in 1876... In the early 20th century, it began heavily affecting thousands of hectares of banana cultivations in Panama and Costa Rica. By 1950 it had spread to all the banana-producing regions of the world with the exception of some islands.”

Improvement in terrain factors can’t solve such serious problems, which are known in several plant species. Only new, resistant plant varieties can offer relief – until a germ variant appears with a higher virulence, and the misery starts again.

Conclusion

Based on my own and others’ experiences, I conclude that germs (pathogenic organisms like viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, parasites) are for real. Yet the outcome and course of an infection depend not only on germs, but on complex interactions between three factors:

1. The host: general health, immune status, co-morbidities, genetics, age, etc.

2. The germ: virulence, persistence, need for a vector or intermediate host, etc.

3. The terrain (environment): toxins, radiation, stress, and nutritional problems.

Infectious illnesses often have a characteristic clinical and pathological (at necropsy or autopsy) picture. Yet the population in question was almost always pre-exposed to very diverse and partly random terrain factors: in number, duration, dose, excretion, interactions between factors, etc. When germs are denied and disease is seen as a spontaneous detox process, this enormous disparity in terrain factors should logically lead to a more gradual onset and a large variation in symptoms: but that is obviously not the case in these sudden, acute disease outbreaks!

Based on logic and Occam’s Razor, the general rule in the absence of germs would be:

highly variable terrain patterns cannot lead to

uniformized and synchronized disease patterns.

The uniformizing and synchronizing agent is of course the germ! Maybe this metaphor helps: imagine that everybody has a bucket containing their extremely varied personal terrain factors, filled since birth (in fact from conception, and even earlier). Then a group of people suddenly presents the symptoms of what is normally called an infectious disease. According to the terrain theory, that’s because all these buckets, with their hugely diverse contents and filling levels, start to overflow simultaneously, in a collective, spontaneous detox. And all are outpouring the exact same sludge: the huge disparity in terrain factors suddenly results in a relatively uniform pattern of disease symptoms. But that’s not a logical or believable conclusion. Many medical doctors even think that it’s a symptom of a contagious disease, “pea brain”.

So, disease causing organisms, or germs, remain as the only logical explanation for the clinical and pathological uniformity observed in such disease outbreaks. There is also firm scientific confirmation, obtained long ago via the application of the logic of the postulates of Koch (published in 1890! now with adaptations for viruses), although still fiercely denied by terrain adepts. The germ theory also explains the limited geographical distribution of certain well-known diseases: e.g. malaria and dengue only occur in areas with resp. malaria or tiger mosquitos.

Terrain can’t explain this, and neither the disappearance of a disease from an area where the vector has been eradicated (like malaria in the Netherlands). And terrain also falls short in explaining why the symptoms of chickenpox, heartwater or measles do not occur any longer in animals or people who have become immune through infection at a young age. And how to explain bioweapons, sexually transmitted diseases, or even the need for an immune system, with terrain theory? And what about the hundreds of well documented diseases transmitted between humans and animals: zoonoses like tuberculosis and brucellosis (the latter was a nasty occupational disease for veterinarians, in Mozambique I developed antibodies but fortunately no symptoms).

However, among the many medical frauds, some official virus etiologies are indeed false, such as "HIV causes AIDS" (The real Anthony Fauci by RFK Jr.), and "the only cause of poliomyelitis is a virus", see William Engdahl’s Toxicology vs. virology. And that also includes “Covid virus was the prime cause for excess mortality in 2020/21”. An important reason why I believe that there was a Covid virus (and not a renamed flu) were the spike proteins. These attach to ACE2 receptors and cause the frequent clinical and pathological problems with blood clotting, and after depletion of the clotting factors, bleeding. And that same bloody spike was then used in the mRNA jabs!!

A few words on Covid

I’m quite sure that all the brave clinical doctors who resisted the criminal Covid policies - while they risked losing their jobs and licenses or paying high fines - defend the general virus theory. The admirable Dr. Meryl Nass, advisor to Robert Kennedy Jr., is one of them. Here’s a shortlist from her article Is the virus real?: yes, viruses exist, that's why protective clothing works; viruses have a typical incubation time; and they react to anti-viral medicines. Different strains of the Covid virus even require different doses of anti-virals (dr. Pierre Kory). Dr. Suzanne Humphries, a brave fighter against unsafe vaccines, also supports the germ view. Yet her conclusion on vaccines is: “there's never been a vaccine that’s really worthwhile giving”.

In the case of Covid, it’s now clear that multiple factors were being played, such as falsification of death certificates, data-juggling, -alteration, -erasure and -hiding; the PCR tests scam resulting in a high % of false positives; and criminal, involuntary euthanasia (via often heavily subsidized treatments, like remdesivir, midazolam, morphine, mechanical ventilation, too high O₂ levels, etc.). And further, the massive attempts to prevent the highly effective early treatment based on cheap and safe ivermectin or HCQ, even via totally falsified papers in “highly respected” journals.

As the “new” virus proved to be less deadly than expected, all this mixing up of lies, falsities, scams and outright democide was desperately needed to inflate the excess death numbers, which were later kept up through the mRNA jabs. Tens of millions of lives were lost or destroyed in the effort, comparable with the carnage caused by the World Wars of the 20^th century. And no justice has been applied yet! It’s a great, indelible and irreparable shame on the medical and scientific guilds, the mainstream media, the politicians, the international organizations, and the Global Mafia behind it all!

Epilogue

Doctor Vernon Coleman’s article reads like a deathblow to the terrain theory. He adds that it’s highly suspect that a subversive theory which radically undermines the pillars of the mighty pharmaceutical industry, is allowed freely on YouTube and other social media. To which I add that it is also very suspect that a shadowy man, possibly a CIA agent, was seen operating covertly in the flat earth camp, before appearing in the no-virus camp. Unfortunately, I lost the reference, which seems to have been removed from the internet (please contact me if you have the source).

Both the flat earth and the terrain psy-op seem to be targeted to the alternative community, apparently with the aim to bring their followers in a ridiculous position, so the true conspiracy theories that they also defend can be tarred and thrown on the same dirt heap. This can be dangerously counterproductive: for those who regard the classic scientific view on viruses as a lie, anti-viral medicines are by extension also part of it, as well as the many dedicated doctors who took great risks in successfully prescribing such anti-virals on the 20’-24’ battlefield. In the meantime, hundreds of publications by independent researchers have shown that these heroes were right, see The War on Ivermectin: The Medicine that Saved Millions and Could Have Ended the Pandemic, by the courageous Kory.

Hopefully this brief analysis of the logical fallacies of terrain and no-germ theories, not exhaustive but common-sense, will make it easy for you to answer that often-asked question:

Germs or Terrain?

1. Only germs

2. Only terrain

3. Both
