However, the nature of this acknowledgement is nuanced. Here is how the historical record breaks down:  While working with diseases like cholera and typhoid fever, Koch made a groundbreaking discovery: some healthy individuals carried the pathogen Vibrio cholerae without ever showing symptoms of the illness.  Because these healthy people were "harboring" the bacteria, they directly violated the rule that a pathogen must be absent in healthy subjects.  Historically, Koch was known as an empirical scientist who focused heavily on investigative techniques rather than writing theoretical treatises on methodology. No Formal Correction: Koch never published a formal, revised list of his postulates formally striking out the exclusivity clause of his first rule. Pragmatic Abandonment: He explicitly acknowledged and accepted the reality of asymptomatic carriers, essentially abandoning the absolute requirement of the first postulate in practice.</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:27:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel is Losing America</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395303-israel-is-losing-america/?do=findComment&comment=20521910]]></link><description>From the push toward war with Iran to the broader role of the Zionist lobby in shaping U.S. foreign policy, this video examines a question that more and more Americans are starting to ask:  Does the U.S. government still fundamentally answer to the American people?  Because this issue goes far beyond Israel, Iran, or the Middle East.  It goes to the heart of American sovereignty itself.  Using historical examples, we explore what happens when political energy is consumed by internal disputes while powerful interests continue steering the direction of the state from above.  At what point does a government stop being truly &#x201C;by the people and for the people&#x201D;?</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:27:13 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel is Losing America</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395303-israel-is-losing-america/?do=findComment&comment=20521909]]></link><description>This video is 40 minutes, so no time to watch it all.

Watched the op on a big screen by the bed while chatting with the surgeon. He also ground down a little bone to minimise further bone wear. Lot of flapping meniscus removed and he left alone all that was still firmly attached, although thinning. Maybe a knee replacement a good few years in the future but not necessarily, and really best avoided if possible. Quick recovery and minimal discomfort during recovery.

Lately, I've only been eating two meals a day.  A light breakfast and then a late meal sometime in the early afternoon.  Sometimes I'll cook a steak or maybe a salmon filet along with some veggies, or sometimes I get lazy and just pick up the phone and order something delivered via Grab.  I guess I'm not much of a cook, or rather, I don't have the patience to cook anything that has more than three or four ingredients, and that eliminates a lot of good things I could cook.</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:25:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[British Rider Held After Hit & Run on Phangan]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395294-british-rider-held-after-hit-run-on-phangan/?do=findComment&comment=20521904]]></link><description>Enough has been said about this Brit  involved in the accident may the full force of the law be taken against  him he deserves it</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:24:51 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20521903]]></link><description>Plexiglass</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:23:57 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Travel for 2 weeks</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395267-travel-for-2-weeks/?do=findComment&comment=20521902]]></link><description>Low life?

Pol Maj Gen Suwat said the second phase of the operation expanded on evidence gathered during the searches of the five law offices earlier this month. Investigators identified 32 corporate entities suspected of using Thai nominees and obtained 45 arrest warrants for foreign directors linked to the firms.   https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/3260108/21-foreign-suspects-in-koh-phangan-nominee-probe-in-court-on-monday</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:20:04 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20521897]]></link><description>Clear</description><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 03:19:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Travel for 2 weeks</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395267-travel-for-2-weeks/?do=findComment&comment=20521896]]></link><description>I've got an even better idea.
