Recently I spoke to an international consortium of doctors and researchers about the COVID-19 situation and the issue of virus existence. I was asked whether I thought COVID-19 cases were fictional in nature, which is an interesting question. It goes beyond the matter of whether pathogenic viruses exist and are the cause of disease. It also allows us to address the frequent claim people make that whatever COVID-19 is supposed to be, they \u201cgot it,\u201d based on their experience or one of the so-called tests they took. Let\u2019s examine why there is no \u201cit\u201d even though there are lots of \u201ccases\u201d\u2026<\/p>\nWhen most people hear the word \u201ccase\u201d in a medical context there is a natural tendency to think that the individual being counted has an actual disease. It may come as a surprise that this is not a requirement at all because in the field of epidemiology it can be defined as simply, \u201cthe standard criteria for categorizing an individual as a case.\u201d \u2018Standard criteria\u2019 can be anything and this opens the door to all sorts of misuse and misinterpretation. In fact, it has been used to propagate outright fraud, as Dr John Bevan-Smith and I documented last year in \u201cThe COVID-19 Fraud & War on Humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n
In 2020, Sam published a video \u201cWhat is a COVID-19 case?,\u201d which succinctly outlined the problems of the World Health Organisation\u2019s COVID-19 \u2018case\u2019 definition. It was evident that cases are \u201cconfirmed\u201d by in vitro (outside the body) molecular detection assays \u2013 in 2020 that was mostly PCR kits and today we also have the widely-deployed Rapid Antigen Tests, which I have discussed in another article. Whatever tests are being used, they have been completely disconnected from the concept of disease. By mid-2020, it was more than apparent that COVID-19 was not a clinically defined condition. A Cochrane review published in July that year concluded that, \u201cbased on currently available data, neither absence nor presence of signs or symptoms are accurate enough to rule in or rule out disease.\u201d In other words, COVID-19 cases can be solely determined by molecular \u201ctests\u201d such as the above-mentioned ones.<\/p>\n
It is astounding that the vast majority of the medical community went along with this nonsense, including many of those who have been opposed to the \u201cpandemic\u201d responses. What does it mean to diagnose or treat a \u201ccase\u201d of COVID-19? Even some PCR critics have been gaslit by debates about the \u201caccuracy\u201d of the PCR and appropriate cycle threshold limits in determining \u2018cases\u2019. However, this falls back into the same trap, being the belief that these particular tests are capable of telling them something useful about the condition of a person. They think the PCR just needs to be tweaked in a certain way so it can be used as a diagnostic tool. For clarity, I am not talking about clinically-validated molecular assays with known diagnostic specificity and sensitivity such as urine pregnancy tests. Sam has covered the pertinent differences in her video \u201cCOVID-19: Behind The PCR Curtain.\u201d<\/p>\n
Beyond the medical community, the public have been deceived by linguistic legerdemain where the PCR or Rapid Antigen Test results are then called, \u201ccases of the virus,\u201d or, \u201ccases of infection,\u201d by public institutions and the corporate media. This is a game of deception because the WHO\u2019s own definition of a case has been completely misrepresented. If they were honest they would say, \u201ccases of a detected chemical reaction in an assay.\u201d However, this would have failed in the marketing department and nobody would have bought into the pandemic narrative in 2020.<\/p>\n
In summary, there are indeed \u201ccases\u201d of COVID-19 but the case definition has been disconnected from the concept of disease. There is no disease and there is nothing to \u201cget,\u201d except for a label as a \u2018case\u2019. The Johns Hopkins \u201cCOVID-19 Dashboard\u201d displays these hundreds of millions of meaningless figures, which look impressive to the uninitiated viewer. However, knowledge of how these numbers have been produced brings an understanding that we have just witnessed a pseudo-pandemic, or what Virus Mania\u2019s Dr Claus K\u00f6hnlein christened a \u201cPCR Pandemic\u201d in 2020.<\/p>\n
The COVID-19 fraud and the concept of \u201ccases\u201d is illustrative of a wider problem concerning medical training and practice within the allopathic paradigm. It is one that I am acutely aware of, having been in the conventional medical system for two decades until my exit in 2016. The paradigm is based on claimed disease entities, many of which are allegedly caused by one \u201cpathogen\u201d and are supposedly treated with one \u201cmagic bullet.\u201d Medicine was subverted in this way last century after the stifling implementation of the Rockefeller-backed Flexner Report (1910) and has never recovered. Dr Montague Leverson pointed out an example of this misguided thinking about disease around the same time:<\/p>\n
<\/span>\u201cYou here assume smallpox to be a thing, an entity. This blunder is committed by nearly all the followers of the self-styled “regular school”, and it will probably be a new idea to you to be told that neither smallpox nor any other disease is an entity, but is a condition.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/span>

\n<\/b>Dr. Montague Leverson, Bridgeport Evening Farmer, Connecticut USA, August 21, 1909<\/b><\/p>\nOne of the worst things that can happen when visiting an allopathic doctor is being labelled with a disease entity. Medical practice has deteriorated into protocol-driven paradigms in which the practitioners blindly follow pathways and tick boxes. Hapless patients are given a tag and then subjected to prescribed \u201ctreatments\u201d rather than being advised on how to help cure their body\u2019s real problems. One silver lining to the COVID fiasco is that it blatantly exposed the nature of the medical system to many people and they could see that it cannot help them with achieving true health.<\/p>\n
New Zealand\u2019s Dr Ulric Williams (1890-1971) was another who understood the follies of attempting to classify disease \u201ccases\u201d through not only investigations but also through criteria involving symptoms and signs. Rather, he identified these patterns as healing crises and the body\u2019s attempts to restore itself to health. On that note, we are pleased to announce that we will soon be publishing a book that will once again make Dr Williams\u2019 wisdom and curative methods available to the world.<\/p>\n
We are frequently asked about what really makes people ill if it is not \u201cviruses\u201d or other disease entities. It is a matter of changing our way of thinking from the misleading model of getting or suffering from \u201cit\u201d to a new understanding of what our body is trying to do to get well again. As well as addressing this in our free content, we explore these concepts further in our monthly Q&A sessions. Access to this bonus content is available through Dr Sam\u2019s Community Membership. Please sign up for this membership if you would like to support our work and have even more of your questions answered. You can also sign up for Dr Sam\u2019s free newsletter so you don\u2019t miss out on any of the latest developments.<\/p>\n
