Viroliegy

Mike Stone runs a website called Viroliegy, and I subscribe to his newsletter. I just added it to the blogroll. I like his work and know that he has a sharp mind, but without tooting my own horn note that everything he has written about in his newsletter has been covered here. I and my commenters and readers are not ahead of him, just with him. For instance, his mother came to the U.S. from abroad, and within three years was dead, according to Stone, killed by doctors. He doesn’t say exactly how she died, but does say that she tested positive for HIV. From his emphasis, it appears that might have been her death sentence – not a virus, but rather, a cure for a supposed virus.

He appears to have believed in the science fraud going on behind AIDS, but came awake at that time. Not woke – awake.

Stone knows that the HIV virus has never been isolated nor shown to cause AIDS. He cites his sources as “…Dr. Stefan Lanka, the Perth Group, David Crowe, Kary Mullis, Peter Duesberg, Jon Rappoport, and many others.” I note that he did not name Andrew Kaufman or Tom Cowan, two people who became prominent almost overnight when the SARS-CoV-2 virus had just been introduced. Maybe Stone, like me, does not trust them. He does not say, and I am not intending to put words in his mouth. I am just hinting and could well be wrong.

Here is what caught my eye with Stone: Fresh insight. I will quote at length, even as the newsletter is more in depth yet. (Note: Stone asks that readers subscribe to his work for a modest sum which I may yet do. As it is, I’ve got pleas for money from all directions, even the New York Times hurting for bucks. I must be selective. Stone is worthy, NYT not, in my view.) The following is from his January 28 newsletter.

Virology is full of unfalsifiable concepts that allow for falsified hypotheses to remain as supporting evidence for the unproven “theory:”

1. The concept of the asymptomatic carrier is an unfalsifiable concept as it allows for supposed disease-causing agents to be considered as such even when they are “found” not causing disease.
2. Relying on “antibodies” and the “immune” system to explain away why people are not getting sick through experimentation creates an unfalsifiable scenario to explain away contradictory results, as many have tried to do when brushing off the findings of Milton Rosenau’s¹⁰Spanish flu experiments.
3. Allowing for the presence of a “virus” in a cell culture even though no cytopathogenic effect is observed is another unfalsifiable concept, as this effect is supposed to signal the presence of a “virus” in a culture.
4. The existence of “virus-like” particles such as multivesicular bodies, clathrin-coated vesicles, the rough endoplasmic reticulum, and/or other extracellular vesicles found in those without disease, even though these same particles are identified as “pathogenic viruses” when seen in those with disease.

By looking at the examples of unfalsifiable concepts present in virology, it should be clear to see how variable and vague the concepts of virology truly are. As stated by Oxford Reference, pseudoscience “provides no room for challenge and tends to dismiss contradictory evidence or to selectively decide what evidence to accept.” They conclude that pseudoscience is “nothing more than a claim, belief, or opinion that is falsely presented as a valid scientific theory or fact.” There is an inability to challenge virology experimentally as there are numerous unfalsifiable concepts available as escape hatches that can be used by virologists in order to dismiss contradictory findings that should falsify the hypothesis. Thus, virology is a pseudoscience.

Indeed. Virology is pseudoscience. I have gone as far as to label it science fraud.

Falsifiability is a deductive standard of evaluation of scientific theories and hypotheses, introduced by the philosopher of science Karl Popper in his book The Logic of Scientific Discovery (1934).^[B] A theory or hypothesis is falsifiable (or refutable) if it can be logically contradicted by an empirical test.

That is from Wikipedia, you know, so a box of Morton’s salt required. Falsifiability has its uses, and some limits. For instance, use of string theory to unify general relativity and quantum mechanics is impossible with today’s colliders … there I go, overlooking the obvious. General relativity is supported by some empirical evidence, like light bending around the sun. String theory is ethereal, no evidence to support it but not falsified either. It could be pseudoscience.

I think I am out of my depth. Enough of that – back to virology. What caught my eye with Stone relates to something I wrote about way back in 2020, that “the PCR test is the virus.” What I suggested was that PCR was being misused to characterize a virus that was spreading when nothing of the sort was true. The planners behind the fake pandemic knew this, and knew that the public would accept the concept of “asymptomatic carrier” with ease, as it was handed down to us from a mountain top. It was a lie, but cloaked in a white lab coat, which is usually all it takes with our scientifically illiterate public. They are just like Mike Stone’s mother-in-law, God rest her soul, making the mistake of trusting experts.
