Short YouTube interview (Robert Whitfield MD) reporting that 29% of removed implants showed bacterial contamination by PCR; the speakers identify the organisms involved (Staphylococcus epidermidis and Cutibacterium acnes) and discuss their origin on skin microbiome and potential risks when imbalanced.

PCR testing

Doctor Rob, I know you've taken out thousands of implants. How many of them are truly infected? Yeah, we.
Found that 29% actually have bacterial contamination found on PCR testing every members from the pandemic. How sensitive? PCR testing. So 29% actually have bacterial contamination. Not fungus. It's not mold. Stop writing about that. Stop talking about it.
It's the black stuff that they show in videos. Isn't black mold stachybotrys on your. On your implants. It's a bacterial infection. What type of bacteria is it?
Staph epidermidis, Cutobacterium acnes. Both found in high concentrations on the skin and especially face, neck, chest.
So showing up on their external microbiome.
So that's where Cutibacterium acnes is most predominantly found. And then staph epi, of course, is found all throughout our skin.
Yeah. So when that's out of balance, why is that dangerous?
And so I think, like, if you look at me, I've probably got the worst skin microbiome you could find, because I took care of cancer patients, burn patients, critically ill patients, forever. And no matter how careful I would have been, I would have been exposed to far more than you would have been had you not been in the same environment.
