Hi John,

Sorry, I have to say this. You need to seriously study organic chemistry. It's one thing to have an idea, but when people on the list correct you through accurate knowledge (I majored in medicinal chemistry and I am sure others have suitable qualifications), you still argue around incorrect facts. Quinine has carbon and nitrogen, are you going to argue quinine has the same pathology as cyanide?
I think it's enough now, admit you need to know your limitations. Accept or least study what is presented. Otherwise this just goes on in circles and takes up a lot of time of those willing enough to respond and guide you.

Regards,
Paul

I'm not sure that the affected African populations have/had as much access to and overuse of aspirin/salicylic acid as we do in the US... I know that it's not used at US levels in other western countries such as Austria, for example.

and as a food preservative has been the co-efficient if not the true
source of the hemorrhagic diathesis in like fevers such as Ebola.

Alright I admit it. I made a mistake in assuming that because of similar origins, esters and blood thinning effects, quinine, like aspirin, contained salicylates. How stupid of me! I was wrong, wrong , wrong, and will continue to be wrong and never reach Damascus until I scour a textbook on "organic chemistry" for every scrap, crumb and morsel of knowledge. Let us put aside this whole topic of homeopathy curing yet another panic driven phony "epidemic" to focus on this one point, that John Benneth thought quinine contained salicylates. What a fool I've been, how cruelly I've deceived myself! But how fortunate for me to have found such a great teacher of medicinal chemistry to correct us in our evil ways, and I'm reaching out using a collective pronoun to include others in ignorance, as they are undoubtedly lurking in the shadows here,waiting for St. Paul to brilliantly instruct them on every fine and painfully relevant point.
I say hallelujiah that the Master has finally arrived to teach and enlighten, though his brilliance shines so great we can only peer at him through leather lest we go blind from the burning radiation!
Tell us, oh Great One, on this mysterious topic of organic chemistry, how is it that when two dead elements, hydrogen and carbon, come together, the electrical force of life comes into them. And as long as I have a hold of the hem of your garment, and you are a Medicinal Chemist, let me ask you another question that's been burning a hole in my brain. What is the chemical description of the homeopathic remedy? Like the organic molecule, how, apparently unknown to convention, do you explain this mysterious, unnamed principal or force that springs from the "homeopathic molecule?" What is it? In the terms of medicinal chemistry, Paul, what is the highly diluted, post-Avogadro homeopathic remedy?

Peace, brothers.

You know the saying, "You learn something new every day?" To that I like to add, "… on a good day." Congrats on even being able to *make* mistakes at that level.

Subject: [Minutus] Curing Ebola
Hi Paul,
There were six cases of Ebola that were treated and cured homeopathically, but it wasn't me who handled them, it was a local physician in Monrovia, Liberia. My focus for Liberia was prophylaxis, and as Clarke notes Crotalus horridus as a prophylactic for hemorrhagic fever as well as cure (Clarke also suggests a drop of turpentine on a lump of sugar) and as it matched repertorization, and time was of the essence, I shipped just Crot. h. in bulk to the clinics, and almost immediately the epidemic fizzled.

Probably coincidence . . or as if they heard homeopathy was coming and called off the epidemic before people started getting cured.

Another reason I shipped just the one remedy was because I was concerned more than one remedy would cause confusion and rep'ing would be too complicated and discouraging at first.

It was a tough call, but no one got sick after the shipment arrived.

But there was a clinic I missed because the director was up country, and an entire family of six, two adults and four children, became infected. This clinic was sent a full inventory of remedies for rep'ing. All six were eventually cured with administration of Mercurius, Belladonna and finally China.

I believe the epidemic was, as with previous hemorrhagic fevers, iatrogenic salicylism, caused by the overuse of blood thinners such as aspirin and the native herb Garcinia kola, causing the sufferer to die of fluid loss. As Dr. Irene de Villiers rightly reckoned, China o. stops fluid loss and is therefore palliative if not curative of the hemorrhagic diathesis. The best preventative was advice to stay off salicyclates and the like.

Here is the mention of salicylism in my 2014 white paper submitted to the Office of Preparedness at the US Department of Health.
The epidemic died before I could make an oral presentation in Washington, D.C.

It contains more detail and repertorization of Ebola.
