Answer 8

Good day.

I trust you are well.

You state that small pox virus causes small pox and you say small pox bacteria causes small pox.

Which one is it now?

Am I correct in saying that initially a form of bacteria causes infection that then turns into a virus(by product of cells excreting the toxins in the cells,caused by the bacterial infection)?

What type of bacteria would this be,has it been identified yet?

Variola is the by-product of the bacterial infection & the virus is not the cause of the infection?

In fact all pandemics have been started with a bacterial infection that had viruses as by-products/waste?

Furthermore that viruses are non-contagious and can`t be carried over from one person to the next as they are non-living matter?

Looking forward to your honest & truthful reply.

Thank you.
