Don't throw the baby out with the venom water. I think people need to forget about the delivery theory because he doesn't know, he just suspected water for 2 very weak reasons anyway. But continue to focus on the venom evidence. A year ago my sister working in a hospital during one of the actual deadly outbreaks (most cases have just been flu but a few rare cases have definitely been something suspicious) called me telling me something was wrong with their blood. They were all young patients and their blood looked like it had been exposed to snake venom. She literally said this to me last year and the posts I made about it are still here and searchable. I for one think we should continue down the venom trail. Forget about the water for now.
