I recall reading that one reason smallpox devastated the Indigenous population was because of the treatments that the people used. I cannot find the resource but I think that "sweating" was mentioned and that was the worst thing to do. I am going to try to research effective treatment from the past. I am still hung between the "terrain" and the "germ" models. I absolutely know the healthy terrain trumps all threats of "infection".
I am thinking it is BOTH in balance and yet some of those I like to hear are seeming militant in denial that viruses exist and etc. IMO we need some proactive modeling on how to shut down all potential biological weapons by way of OUR terrain. No threat for us, no power over us.
I did find an interesting article
