I dont know if there is a causal relation, but both are rampant.
For me the worst is how hollow the word "science" has become. I refer to the old law-based science as "natural or hard science" nowadays. And all climate models (on a highly complex open system that is the earth) are not hard science. Also virology side-stepped Koch's postulate on isolation and transmittability.
So according to "science" a treatment is "safe and effective" and in a few months turns out to be neither safe nor effective: but barely anyone can reflect on that because all are too invested in their own story. That's not science (nor hard nor soft), that's a cargo cult.
Koch's postulate's can't work on viruses, that's not how viruses work. How do you propagate an obligate parasite in a pure culture? Mycobacterium leprae (the cause of leprosy) fails Koch's postulates as well, because of the same "pure culture" issue. Plaque assays clearly show viruses exist and they are self controlling due to the dilution of the original sample and their ability to still work when the virus is cloned.
