We are here concerned with bacteriophagous[9] threshold substances, which are first animated at a later stage of development. For this reason the view that this relates to viral entities released by water, sap and blood, is an error of the first order.

It is the way in which impregnation takes place that determines whether the emergence of pathogens results or not.
