So in so many words you are basically saying Dr. Cowan is full of hot air.
Well, the problem with the interview is that Gareth Icke, though I don't intend any personal criticism of him or his intentions at all, isn't knowledgeable or experienced enough to be asking good questions.
Dr Cowan's thesis extends way beyond criticism of the vaxx agenda and the unhealthiness of fear of the virus (or, more accurately, of covid).
In his 2020 book
The Contagion Myth, he argues that not only do viruses not cause disease,
but bacteria don't either.
This generates a huge historical problem. That means he has to explain how come The Black Death (bubonic plague) killed so many millions (and was most definitely contagious), what smallpox really was and how come it spread so easily in communities, how come billions of dollars, rubles or yuan have been spent on bioweapon research (rather a waste of money if the weapons don't and can't exist!), the well-documented history of cholera and tuberculosis (both still a major problem) and also ebola, and on and on and on and on.
And he has to explain how antibiotics work. (
And they do.)
Something is contagious. Never mind whether it's a virus, a bacterium, or something else we can't easily see or detect. Something real is causing all this suffering. It's not because people are somehow living 'unhealthy lives', or have malfunctioning bodily systems, and then, magically, identical symptoms manifest all across the world, centuries apart.
So yes, it's 'hot air' as regards his principal big-picture thesis. There's way too much in-your-face evidence to the contrary.
But that's being conflated with legitimate criticism of the vaxx agenda and the fear being spread about covid. These are not all the same issue.
Here are his closing words in the interview:
You don't wear a mask, and you don't social-distance, and you don't inject yourself with poisons, and all that's easy because if there's no virus, none of these things have any relevance, there's no lab-created virus, there's no engineered virus, there's no 'natural immunity', there's no 'vaccine immunity', there's no pathogenic priming, there's no antibody-dependent enhancement, there's none of that stuff. If there's no virus, you don't have to think about any of that, because it's all make-believe.
Some of that is true. And some of it isn't.
(Note to self: this particular conversation should really be moved to the Covid19: There's very little danger: Covid19 may not exist at all thread, and I'll do that a little later once the Tom Cowan conversation here seems to have run its course. )
