Good article. I’m in the midst of reading “The Invisible Rainbow” that covers the history of electricity. Adverse effects on horses (and bees) are mentioned several times in relation to periods when humans implement new electrical discoveries or increase usage. I did not find a specific reference to an event between 1872 and 73 in the book or from a quick internet search. Anyone know of one?
Arsenic was starting to be used as pesticide in 1870 and it was often used with lead. There is a direct correlation between the use of arsenic and then DDT with polio. Once these were eliminated from the environment, polio stopped. Of course, lucky for big pharma, that is when they started vaccinating. (It is likely this was no coincidence.)
Since coming to the understanding that exosomes do not cause disease, these historical references are of great interest. I am confident that rabies is associated with a toxin, something ingested owing to the foam at the mouth and then brain disorder ending in other neuropathic symptoms, but it would be very interesting to find the toxin associated with distemper. Since it is found in canines as well as ungulates, it is not species specific. Very interesting puzzle.

Ah yes. Arsenic was used in sheep dips too back then.
