concern of showing us how we could be in a balanced state with this virus--which has of course happened every other time we've seen a coronavirus. We saw SARS and we saw MERS, and within a single year--within 2 years or 2 seasons, a single 12 month period, the encompassing two of our respiratory seasons--SARS disappeared, no vaccine. 2012 MERS disappears, no vaccine.

Dr. Zach Bush (07:29):

We didn't need a vaccine because the genetic update had occurred. We developed a homeostasis or balance within the populations that have been exposed, figured out how to get that update in, and we're no longer producing the virus. They didn't do that by killing the virus. We have this belief that we need antibodies to kill the viruses so that we're not…you don't kill a virus. It's already dead. You don't need to kill the virus. What you need to do is keep the machinery intact and communicating well, that then regulates the generation or silencing of that genetic information as it enters the body. We have demonized the virome to our own demise because we've made public health decisions that have isolated us, rather than reconnected us to nature. We have made public health decisions that have collapsed global economies, lost 250 million jobs over the last 4 months. We have destroyed the international community on many levels.

Dr. Zach Bush (08:01):

And of course the most poor, the most marginalized, the most abused minorities among us were the worst hit by these mistakes. It's sobering to realize that the misrepresentation of the virome as part of the microbiome, and therefore the attribution of germ theory upon these dead (non-living) genetic updates, we've made some critical mistakes, scientifically, medically, and policy-wise.
