Seasonal Disease Patterns and Migrant Impact

An easily recognisable pattern of disease is described which demonstrates regional and seasonal clusters, and characteristic effects on migrant communities. Influenza, neural tube defects and autism are shown to adhere to the pattern. A...

The no-virus debate: Clare Craig

The no-virus debate: Clare Craig

This is a response to Clare Craig’s essay in the Daily Sceptic titled: The Unsolved Mystery of How Viruses Spread – and Why Germ Theory Isn’t the Whole Answer which asks why the epidemiology...

Magnetic flux ropes

Magnetic flux ropes

Abstract: Energy and matter are transferred from the sun to Earth in brief dynamic bursts (magnetic flux events) via electromagnetic filaments, also known as magnetic flux ropes. The ropes initially form at the Earth’s...

How to catch a cold

How to catch a cold

An anecdotal description of a distinctive epidemiological pattern for the common cold suggests the possibility of contagion. Contagion is via bio-field transmission and requires sustained physical proximity or contact. Infectiousness is proportional to intensity....

The nature of the bio-field

The nature of the bio-field

Hypothesis: Living systems are controlled by an electromagnetic bio-field that is responsible for all biological organisation of information, energy and matter. This field takes on the form of energetic vortices which flow through the...

The decline in disease

The decline in disease

The chart below is from the Dissolving Illusions website and shows the decline of most so called ‘infectious’ diseases from 1840 to 1976. All diseases shown were almost extinct before the mass production of...

What are exosomes?

What are exosomes?

Exosomes are commonly described as “nanoscale particles formed by a lipid bilayer that encapsulates and carries a biologically active cargo of proteins, lipids, RNA and DNA.“ It has been suggested that these particles are...

Influenza is not contagious

Influenza is not contagious

Sir Charles Herbert Stuart-Harris (1909-1996) wrote a book: Influenza and other viruses of the respiratory tract. Stuart-Harris believed that influenza was caused by a virus but Chapter 6. Epidemiology of influenza is extremely interesting...

Frank Brown

Frank Brown

Frank Arthur Brown Jr. (1908–1983) looked at the connection between biological activity and ‘cosmic events’. Correlations were found in all manner of organisms between a variety of metrics and a variety of cyclic events such as...

Birth date, lifespan and disease

Birth date, lifespan and disease

There is a large body of research showing correlations between date of birth and subsequent health outcomes, with one paper showing a dramatically reduced lifespan (by nearly 10 years!) for those born during high...

Measles

Measles

This page looks at several interesting papers on the epidemiology of measles and influenza and tries to make sense of them. Cases dramatically decreased before the vaccine rollout. Modern measles is not a childhood...

Influenza and field vortices

Influenza and field vortices

This page looks at the epidemiology of influenza and asks if it is not somehow related to the newly discovered phenomenon of magnetic potential vortices. The idea is that at certain times of the...

The HART group

The HART group

The HART group gives some interesting arguments as to why they are rejecting the idea that viruses do not exist. One is a flawed statistical argument and others are observations of genome sequences. None...

Sunspots and influenza

Sunspots and influenza

Several papers present data and arguments purporting to show a correlation between peaks in sunspot activity and pandemic levels of influenza. A crystal clear paper written by statistician Simon Towers shows that this is...
