Yes, Bobby. Of course.
I was wondering if it would be you, Frank, Gordon or Sir Nail to be the first to post something like that.
Congratulations. You win.
"Bernard was right, the germ is nothing--the milieu is everything."
- Louis Pasteur - on his deathbed
[milieu = = environment]
Quote:
With the addition of the single word "susceptible" the entire concept of the germ theory is changed. The accent is taken away from the germ and placed on the word susceptibility, not only susceptibility of the second host but also that of the first host-in other words,
for a germ to cause a disease in anybody, at any time, it can only do so if the person is susceptible.
Thus Koch agreed with his friend Pasteur who, before he died, admitted that "Bernard was right, the germ is nothing, the milieu is everything. "
So having come to agreement that germs and viruses pose a threat only to susceptible subjects, it remains only to clarify what susceptible means. Susceptibility is a condition of lowered health and vitality which exists when the homeostasis of the body becomes disharmonised due to undesirable changes in the milieu interieur . As the milieu interieur changes rapidly for better or worse according to what is eaten and many other factors, so susceptibility may vary or be chronic, which explains why some sick people go 'in and out of remission' and why some remain chronic.
