My belief is that the human body’s defense systems are the main governing factor to “catching” as disease: living in a war zone, starving, being wounded, being poisoned, even living like someone in San Francisco, these all leave the body in a weakened state, susceptible to “diseases” that would have otherwise been rebuffed by the body’s own systems.
Basically, I’m talking about the difference between Magic Johnson living with aids for over 30 years, while most “san franciscians” died after a year or two. It has far less to do with “magic dr fauci aids medicine” and far more to do with him “cleaning up” his life after the diagnoses in the early 90s.
Accurate or not, the model of invisible contagious diseases surrounding us at all times is a trojan horse of an idea in the sense that unless you very clearly identify the causes of ill health, any assumptions of specific, latent threats become a source of fear which tyrants can scam you with. It's a concept of scientifically-derived original sin, of which there can exist any number, all of them needing a vaccine baptism to wash away at the earliest possibility (but you'll also still need the confessional for the rest of your life).
It was known and accepted for a long time that the vast majority of Polio 'cases' are asymptomatic. But this acceptance also allowed humanity to fall into a semantic definitional game, where the dictionaries are written by commie trannies who then beat us over the head with them. One of the main arguments for the efficacy of the Polio vaccine was how rates declined just after it - which was also not long after Coxsackie virus was discovered and became a perfect category to catch all the cases of non-paralytic Polio going around. No wonder Polio declined massively, since 'asymptomatic Polio' was suddenly called something else. We've seen the same definitional games with flu, covid, delta, omicron, flu-like symptoms, long covid, measles, shingles, herpes, monkeypox, 'Mpox' (which is totally different we swear), etc. right now, all to further the goals of the medical establishment and divert discussion away from elephants in the room, such as improving natural immunity and avoiding products which might ruin it.
And I just discovered this:
Taxonomy: There were 29 species of coxsackieviruses until 1999, when two of them were abolished and the rest merged into other species.
Huh. So 1999, the same year they thought they'd completely eradicated Polio 2, was also the year they felt that 'coxsackievirus' wasn't useful as its own distinctive category any more. Fancy that.
Two things which early on convinced me there was a lot more to the story of “healthcare”:
the mindless praise heaped upon vaccines for “eradicating” certain viruses, while totally neglecting or deceptively conflating the wide array of factors which changed at the time. Such as you mention polio, cases had dropped to a tiny fraction of their height in the years leading up to the introduction of the vaccine, yet all the credit for this reduction is impossibly attributed to the vaccine:
Tied into this point, is the fact that many commonly prescribed medicines don’t even exceed the performance of placebo (such as antidepressants). This indicates that these medicines are actually useless, and the governing factor is our bodies health, how well we’ve maintained our natural defense systems, and oddly importantly, our “outlook” or our “desire to live” you could say. If we abolished big pharma and put all that money into researching “the placebo effect”, I think we might finally start making progress in health/”medicine” again.
Wim Hof demonstrating that through conscious control of the so-called “autonomic” nervous system, he and anyone following a similar protocol could, through nothing but their will, rebuff the effects of an endotoxin (“deactivated” virus that normally triggers a “useless” but harmful immune system response)
The Wim Hof stuff is interesting. It bleeds over into stuff I've been dwelling on recently with regards to the process/nature of consciousness itself and what it means for an individual's sense of purpose and their 'self-actualisation', which feeds back around to health in the end, either directly through some undiscovered process or indirectly through the kinds of general health decisions one ends up making.
I can't lay claim to having been an early questioner of the lies surrounding healthcare but I'm hoping never to be duped again. I don't know exactly what my stance is on virology and epidemiology these days other than I am now armed with the knowledge that a) virology was preceded as a science by vaccinology, by centuries, and depended on many of the assumptions of vaccinology in its infancy and b) vaccinology is literally 300+ year old technology based on the gut feelings of a feminist fujoshi noblewoman who saw it practiced in Turkey. The first 100 years after Jenner's smallpox vaxx appear to have been, upon examination of the numbers, a stats-rigging exercise to desperately try and manufacture a false success out of it, while the more sensible physicians stood around and scratched their heads wondering wtf kind of psyop this all was (just like covid).
All of this stuff became the foundational assumptions of virology. To the extent that these fields are intertwined, they now feel like a couple of sinking ships tied to eachother. Maybe one is still potentially sea-worthy and maybe not, but if they choose to stay tethered then they can both sink as far as I'm concerned.

You sound like you’d be interested in and open to considering the following:
Here is research on the practice (gTummo yoga) that Hof states is the foundation of his practice:
"During visits to remote monasteries in the 1980s, Benson and his team studied monks living in the Himalayan Mountains who could, by g Tum-mo meditation, raise the temperatures of their fingers and toes by as much as 17 degrees. It has yet to be determined how the monks are able to generate such heat."
Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard Medical, also published in the journal nature.
"The researchers collected data during the unique ceremony in Tibet, where nuns were able to raise their core body temperature and dry up wet sheets wrapped around their bodies in the cold Himalayan weather (-25 degree Celsius) while meditating."
Where I believe this all leads, to your point about consciousness, admittedly flies in the face of much of what we are told about the world and it’s mechanisms:
In addition to the video footage, in the past westerners have been able to seek out Chang and train under him. A Greek engineer managed to find him and trained for a decade with him and wrote a book trying to apply a scientific approach to what he witnessed and experienced. This book really shines an interesting light on not just the what observed in the video, but investigates possible answers for the how as well. In addition, it's just a highly engrossing book if approached with an open mind.
While interesting and demonstrably “effective” in its own rights, it should be noted his method is basically a far older school of practice (gTummo yoga) chopped up and (unfortunately) often sold as a form of “self-help”. Which, while it is both understandable (he’s gotta eat) and valid in its own rights (I’ve heard it’s helped many people), by making it all about “Wim” and his “Method”, much of the ancient wisdom about our underlying “hardware” gets totally glossed over in favor of selling an “experience” which you can sign up to partake in

Kary Mullis agreed with you, certainly on aids as a product of lifestyle factors.

I don't know I've down the program, 8 hours of videos that could have sorely used an editor. I still don't "know" what the Method is.
The Wim Hof method specifically?
My understanding of it is:
Hyperventilation for ~30 deep breaths in
Deep breath out, hold until discomfort
Deep breath in, hold until discomfort
Repeat steps 1-3 a few times

This has been a proven thing for a while, but the establishment refuses to admit it. Diet and environment are the biggest predictors of health.
