Nature's Way

Everything was created to have a natural balance and order on earth.

Disease is just one of nature's way of species control. To thin out a species periodically to keep the natural balance and order.

There will become a time when we will have no defence against new or existing diseases and viruses etc.

It's the natural balance of things it can never be stopped maybe halted for a while but never stopped.

Hence the recent news of antibiotics and other drugs being less and less effective until they cease to be effective at all.

Antibiotics have become less effective for a number of reasons and yes, the strains that they once attacked and defeated have grown stronger, the unfortunate thing is we have been the engineers of our own destruction.

First they have been oversubscribed (the antibiotics), leading to bacterial infections "knowing their enemy" sooner. Secondly when people are prescribed antibiotics, many do not complete the full course and stop when the symptoms of their illness disappear. Trace elements of the bacteria still exist in their system, which defeat the residual antibiotic and mutate or adapt to it. In the long term, the simple act of not completing a course (and wiping out the whole infection), has led to stronger resistance....

You can't possibly know there will be a time that disease takes over. You shouldn't state it as fact. This is all supposition.

They think Polio is about to be eradicated. It's only in high numbers Afghanistan and Pakistan now and they've just started using a different type of vaccine. They think that should wipe it out.

Some people have natural immunities too.

My view

Humans have created a few biological organisms , but beyond that nothing was created to do anything

The balance myth would be more accurately illustrated as a see saw that is usually tipped one way or other very rarely in biological history does balance occur

Rat plagues illustrate this point

Whilst there is grain they procreate until they eat sleep and shit all over each other , until all the food is gone then almost all die. Sound familiar?

If the ops point is humans cannot control nature I'd agree

If it is it was designed to be or is in perfect equilibrium I'd disagree

Good point but I never mentioned perfect equilibrium. My point was that nature has a way of balance eventually.

"Diseases need us. If they wipe us out they destroy themselves. "

Hence the natural order, it seems as though conflict and competition is the only constant.

Of course, its also possible that once the germs wipe out humankind, they will evolve themselves and become the target of their own viruses.

They need continual tinkering. This ones a jap import so needs the sapc box changing to derestrict it and the resistor in the speedo taking out so it will do over 112mph. It will go on dyno then to set the carbs up. So much easier on a dyno now than it was in the 80's doing plug chops

Right, my thinking was, would it ever be possible to say, infect someone with a minor virus, say a cold, a strain of which may be detrimental to the existence of a more dangerous virus in the hosts system, basically curing them by giving them a dose of something their immune system can cope with?

The balance is the result of the conflict, one side has to be in balance with the other, otherwise both would end, if that's even possible of course - if we found a way to eliminate every threat to human life, ie war, disease, poverty etc, we'd soon end up so overpopulated that we wouldn't have the resources to sustain us, hence even more death.

As I mentioned further up, we just have to try and get the best out of our lives, whilst we have them.

A vaccine is not a germ infecting another germ

No, but some are live aren't they. Not sure exactly how they attenuate them....

Right, my thinking was, would it ever be possible to say, infect someone with a minor virus, say a cold, a strain of which may be detrimental to the existence of a more dangerous virus in the hosts system, basically curing them by giving them a dose of something their immune system can cope with?"

Viruses wont really infect each other.

Theres a possibility to use ohages to treat bacteria though but they dont tend to wipe out the bacteria completley. So its not very effective.

Virus's are border line whether you van even define them as living so theres surprisingly little you can actually do to them because they have hardly any processes going on within them.

Bacteria you can attack in a wide variety of ways because they're complex and have to do a lot of processes to live (stop one ans they die) but a virus uses host cells to do anything.

Ont he basic level a virus is some RNA in a protein sheath.

"everything is just trying to survive, and this goes for diseases too.

there's no balance thing going on at all.

The balance is the result of the conflict, one side has to be in balance with the other, otherwise both would end, if that's even possible of course - if we found a way to eliminate every threat to human life, ie war, disease, poverty etc, we'd soon end up so overpopulated that we wouldn't have the resources to sustain us, hence even more death.

As I mentioned further up, we just have to try and get the best out of our lives, whilst we have them."

i also don't believe in predictability based on something we have never experienced either.

we're only overpopulated right now because people are living longer, and these people cannot breed so are not gonna make the over population any worse, we are just waiting for them to die for the population to go down. and this is mainly in countries that have decent health care that has found ways fight off all these diseases.

if people overpopulated and resources became scarce then we would die, or have to adapt (evolve) to survive that. there are already ways that starvation can be got round, just they haven't been implemented. most starvation is implemented/forced by the system that some humans have created.

right now our world is chaos, and unpredictable. if diseases died, the diseases that kill us, we could be just fine.

It is of course a massively complex subject, hence why you have multiple areas od science dedicated to the subject of germ research, but surely in the simplest terms anything which is alive can be killed, and finding the cure to anything should be about finding whatever is most dangerous to the virus' survival, with the least possible harm to the host?

I'm not just talking about antibodies here, I'm thinking along the lines of some kind of territorial virus which gives the human host only the most minor of symptoms, if any at all, but will fiercely attack any other foreign infecting bodies which attempt to get into the hosts system - I suppose you could refer to this as more of a symbiote than a virus however.

But viruses aren't strictly "alive" theyre closer to prions than living organisms tbh.

They inject thier dna (rna) into your cell your cell makes loads of vrii from the RNA which then bursts and releases them all.

A virus cant attack another virus because well there's nothing for it to attack.

They also mutate fantasticaly quick which is what makes them hard to get rid of vaccinate against the flu aay and there will be a rhousand new flus that the body doesnt recognize by the end of the week

Then couldn't organic matter be introduced into the virus, in order to make it become 'alive', and then subject to all the vulnerabilities of any other living organism?

Idea borrowed from from Star Trek First Contact, where the Borg give Data living flesh so they can then torture him.

Stop this obsession with cleaning n bleaching the life out of everything!

I think a little bit of dirt is good n keeps your immune system strong,healthy n on its toes.

Too much washing strips away natural oils that protect the skin.

I obviously shower before a meet but some folk take it too far!
