The resurrection of this rivalry from the 1800s is a symbol of distrust in medicine with Pasteur representing the “trust the science” view. But if Pasteur had not “won” at the time we wouldn’t have antibiotics or modern ideas of hygiene ie your surgeon washing their hands before they operate…..the idea that your underlying health status affects your ability to fight disease is not a rebuke of germ theory. It takes a magnitude of order more work to refute “germs aren’t real” than it does to simply say “germs aren’t real” though. I myself am tired, and most people who are interested in the battle are also assholes themselves who have contributed to the loss of trust in the medical institution. So My cynical take here at this point is that if this propagates enough it will be good for medical utilization 🥲
