Awake Goy Denis says:
Protein folding is one of mysteries they like to avoid in popular ‘science’ news, because it shows how little is known/controlled when it comes to (not only) our/human bodies. Not good ad for church of science priesthood.
Misfolded proteins had been blamed for cow disease for example. One of many narratives that don’t make sense. Not saying the part about misfolded proteins doesn’t make sense, but the part about how it spread. Like first cow had to eat another cow. If the source of prions was that first cow, like they say, then you don’t really need this second one.
There’s this very interesting sentence in Wikipedia’s article, which is pretty much completely ignored otherwise:
“The British Government enquiry took the view that the cause was not scrapie, as had originally been postulated, but was some event in the 1970s that could not be identified.”
And the link for the source: https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20090505195102/http://www.bseinquiry.gov.uk/report/volume1/execsum4.htm
This reminds me of a documentary I watched over a decade ago, about superbug that had killed young teen girl, and bunch of other people in UK.
This docu terrified me because it suggested if a butchery or processing plant, which can be tip top and clean, don’t use antibacterial shampoos (which mind you practically exist since like yesterday)… Well, their meat can be contaminated with MRSA and there’s nothing what you can do to save your self if you eat that.
Every single person who developed symptoms died. Doctors said only thing they were able to do is to easy symptoms.
Unfortunately (Because it should have been obvious immediately.) it took me years to understand how nonsensical this story is.
Their mistake in the narrative was to literally blame bacteria infection for the deaths. Not food poisoning. So they talked about antibiotics, antibacterial treatments and superbugs.
The huge problems here are: 1) bacteria can’t survive thermal processing, and I’m pretty sure neither or at least most of these people including the teenager did not eat their meat raw. 2) normally it’s not bacteria that cause issues but their toxins. These can not, or not always, be destroyed by cooking. These toxins are reason why cooking doesn’t prevent food poisoning.
With food poisoning it’s irrelevant if the bacteria was a ‘super bug’ or not. And no, they didn’t imply this is some new superbug resistant to cooking. The problem was, allegedly, they couldn’t find effective treatment/antibiotics.
And now all this reminded me of this: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2002/apr/21/uk.medicalscience
