I don't fathom how you don't believe in germs. In your mental framework for disease, how do you explain food poisoning? Or contaminated water? It's pretty straightforward that we can make predictions from germ theory and see usable results in real life.
Eg, food stored at room temperature will go bad because of bacteria, but won't if you kill the bacteria via canning (or other sterilizing methods, like irradiation). Water that is infected with disease will get you sick, but won't if you kill the bacteria by boiling.
Yeah, I’m fine with all of that, just not viruses or germ theory. There are lots of good books out there explaining what “viruses” are. Covid highlighted a lot of these issues.
Virology and germ theory are both crocks of shit.
