Bill Maher "doesn't believe in germ theory" so everything he says should be taken with a grain of salt, even though he's right a lot of the time


No. This is wrong. He doesn't believe in vaccination as the best way to treat germs, he isn't ignorant of germ theory.

Well no, that's not true, there's more to it than that. He basically denies "western medicine" as a whole - or at least for the most part. And that, regardless of the absurd amount of evidence supporting vaccines and such.

He endorses cancer so-called treatments, quackery... That endorsement is nothing short of dangerous - he's high profile enough to convince people to let themselves die of cancer if they're willing to take his word for it.

I remember him saying in rather simple terms that you shouldn't take medicine to treat a cold because "when you sneeze and cough that's bad stuff trying to escape your body and if you take medicine to stop coughing that bad stuff stays with you." A bit of a ridiculous theory but it's something he only talks about once a year around flu season so I can overlook it.

Sounds like he got his medical degree from grandma.
