Interesting thoughts but I don’t see any as ground breaking. The author correctly points out that there are clear genetic conditions that predispose someone to a disease or protect from one. Germ theory correctly describes infection as a root cause of illness. It is true that most people who are infected do not show develop disease symptoms and this does mean other factors are at play. Stress, environment, age, and genetics all play a role in whether a person develops a disease or just maintains a latent infection with no symptoms. This article adds a genetic component to a previously published host theory printed in 1955. In todays world I think the idea of germ theory and host conditions including genetics is well understood by most in the medical community.
