if there were no "germs" why then, during a time when it was near epidemic for postpartum mothers to get septic and die, did doctors figure out that if they dipped their hands in alcohol first the mothers did not get sick?

Proper sanitation and hygene has proved to be valuable tools for better health.

If you want to say that the alcohol is "killing the dangerous germs," then you have to provide some proof of that. I could just as easily say that there is magic fair dust in the alcohol that does the trick.

Why it works is worthy of research. But leaping to "it must be the germs" is not a scientific answer.

emerging technology is getting better able to distinguish "exosomes" from other extracellular vesicles -- and note the role of exosomes is that they are information carriers, including health creating 'information' such as delivering systemic benefits of exercise, they don't only act in viruses.

I would like to see research on that.

I was never interested in biology until the past 2 years. I have learned A LOT about so-called "scientific research" in the modern era. In actually reading papers, I have discovered that much of what passes for "science" is nothing more than absolute garbage.

As an example, I read a "study" that claimed a particular conclusion. The paper started with a statement of fact, something along the lines of SARS-CoV-2 causes Covid. They cited 2 papers to back up that claim of fact.

But when I looked up those 2 citiations, I found that one "paper" had one single paragraph that made factual claims, with NO citations and NO research to back up the claims. The 2nd citation was roughly the same, but with some added drawings that were supposed to prove something, but didn't even try to explain what or why.

That was the ENTIRE basis for the "SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of Covid-19" statement in the paper.

That means there was NO scientific basis for making that claim. The rest of the paper, therefore, was completely meaningless.

I have found variations of this theme several times since learning about the fraud that passes as "science" these days.

Maybe there is something to the exosomes, but a CLAIM that there is doesn't mean anything. It needs to be backed up with evidence via research.

"Claims without evidence can be dismissed without evidence."
