Virus Mania: How the Medical Industry Continually Invents Epidemics, Making Billion-Dollar Profits At Our Expense Paperback – September 19, 2007
A daily scan through the news gives the impression that the world is constantly invaded by virus epidemics. The latest headlines feature the human papillomavirus (HPV) alleged to cause cervical cancer and the avian flu virus, H5N1. The public is also continually terrorized by reports about SARS, BSE, hepatitis C, AIDS, Ebola, and polio. However, this virus mayhem ignores very basic scientific facts: the existence, the pathogenicity and the deadly effects of these agents have never been proven. The authors of Virus Mania, journalist Torsten Engelbrecht and doctor of internal medicine Claus Köhnlein, show that these alleged contagious agents are, in fact, particles produced by the cells themselves as a consequence of certain stress factors such as drugs, malnutrition, pesticides and heavy metals.
The central aim of this book is to steer the discussion back to a real scientific debate and put medicine back on the path of an impartial analysis of the facts. It will put medical experiments, clinical trials, statistics and government policies under the microscope, revealing that the people charged with protecting our health and safety have deviated from this path. To substantiate these statements, the authors cite dozens of highly renowned scientists and present approximately 1,100 pertinent scientific references.
The topic of this book is of pivotal significance. The pharmaceutical companies and top scientists rake in enormous sums of money by attacking germs and the media boosts its audience ratings and circulations with sensationalized reporting (the coverage of the New York Times and Der Spiegel are specifically analyzed). "The primary purpose of commercially-funded clinical research is to maximize financial return on investment, not health," says John Abramson of Harvard Medical School. Virus Mania will inform you on how such an environment took root-and how to empower yourself for a healthy life.

What I do not like is that I wanted (today in 2022/June) to buy a few copies to give to friends and family. In 2020 I paid about $20.00 for this excellent book/read, now it is out of my budget for one copy let alone 4 or 5 copies. Priced around $50.00 -VERY UNCOOL-
Before the Coronavirus Panic was instigated in the U.S., Claus Kohnlein, M.D., Kiel, Germany, together with journalist Torsten Engelbrecht, wrote a book in 2007 “Virus Mania: How the Medical Industry Invents Epidemics Making Billion Dollar Profits at our Expense”. This book is not only prophetic but unassailable with 836 footnotes in 266 pages.
This book will make most people mad who have lost businesses and jobs regarding the overkill governmental responses to the so-called virus epidemic.
Kohnlein investigates in his book SARS Coronavirus, AIDs, Hepatitis C, Avian Flu and Polio and found there is no scientific basis that they are caused by a virus.
What Virus?
Kohnlein makes it clear from the start that modern medicine is still in the Dark Ages when it comes to virus epidemics. The cause of the so-called epidemic is only conjectured to be virus from indirect antibodies that are “unspecific” in determining virus as the cause. Antibodies are a sort of footprint but of what is still unknown according to Kohniein. He states that viruses may be self-produced for all we know at this time.
Kohnlein says that identifying the exact virus by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test but nobody has reported an electron microscope view of the “so-called produced virus”. There are electron microscope views of the six types of coronavirus but the coronavirus is also the common cold.
Kohniein’s book doesn’t deny that people get sick “although many are not really sick at all, but are only defined as sick, and then are made sick or killed” he says.
Being completely germ free says Kohnlein results in death. He indicates that epidemic health policies are based on a flawed “Germ Theory” of Louis Pasteur that is used to exploit fear. In contrast, the Terrain Theory (soil theory) of Antoine Bechamp is more accurate but never used by policy makers. According the Terrain Theory, the immune system has to be fertile soil for a virus, bacteria or influenza to proliferate or trigger an autoimmune reaction that can kill. Kohnlein sees virus testing as like “trying to say someone has bad breath by looking at his fingerprint”.
The Germ Theory is favored by government says Kohnlein because “it prefers that man perish than change their habits”, which help politicians appease certain groups.
In a separate online interview Kohnlein cites a Lancet Journal case study of how doctors over-prescribe medications and treatments so they can’t be legally blamed for doing nothing about the bogeyman coronavirus, but this kills the patient. He says the medical protocol for treating the alleged coronavirus, published in the February 18, 2020 issue of the prestigious Lancet Journal at the onset of the virus panic, is malpractice. The authors of that study were connected with the School of Health Sciences at Wuhan University, China.
He further said:
“Politicians are in the same position (as doctors) and that is why they are overreacting, because they would lose their positions if they did too little. If they implemented all measures, as they have so far, then they would have hindered an epidemic that probably was never there in the first place”.
Secretiveness
According to Kohnlein, bureaucracy (“the deep state”) is ruled by “secretiveness” that uses a “self-produced” epidemic emergency as cover for its “privilege granting, lack of accountability, blatant lack of monitoring” and overkill medical protocols. Supporting this is a “quasi-religion” that invents its own false-positive markers for disease, its own self-serving theory of germs and a false belief in a “magic bullet” of vaccinations that are too late, don’t work and can kill.
Fear
This is not a quack book written by those on the political fringe or with a political agenda. It was written in Europe with a focus on US health policies. Joachim Mutter, MD, Freiberg, Germany, writes in the forward to the book “…most of the epidemics presented in the media as horror stories (flu, Avian Flu, AIDS, BSE, Hepatitis C, etc.) do not actually exist or are harmless”. Etienne de Harven, MD, Professor Emeritus, University of Toronto, also writes in the forward: “We are not witnessing epidemics; we are witnessing epidemics of fear. And both the media and the pharmaceutical industry carry most of the responsibility for amplifying fears, fears that happen, incidentally, to always ignite fantastically profitable business”.
This book has been a gift in that regard and I recommend it to anyone who is curious about epidemics, pandemics, virology, germ theory, health, vaccines, pharmaceuticals, media, and fear. This book has given me so much to think about and reading it during the Coronavirus pandemic has been jaw dropping. This book was published in 2007 and its insights for 2020 could not be more relevant. I encourage folks to bring this book back into our regular dialogue and discussion because I think it has much to offer us today - namely that fear and mania tend to cloud logical, sound judgement.

This book talks about who makes money and how the medical science has been corrupted. We knew eh?
Natural means it the way to detox the body of chemicals and heavy metals and we all have them now, because of all the vaccines the kids have now, our kids in the UK around 53 some 6 in 1 shots now all their brains are struggling. The terrain is everything we can overcome the viruses. That's why africa does so badly as they are poor and don't have good foods also their water is full of parasites etc, cleanse and detox with fresh herbs and fruits, these are the healers.
