[2001] Hydrogen Peroxide - The Answer to Our Body's Cry for Oxygen by Ingri Harkins In 1928 Richard Simmons, M.D. hypothesized that viruses associated with colds and influenza enter through the ear canal. His findings were dismissed by the medical community. According to Dr. Simmons, there is only one way that you can catch the two and that's via the ear canal; not through the eyes or nose or mouth as most have believed. Keeping your fingers out of your ears will greatly reduce your chances of catching them, but then again these viruses are microscopic, can be air-born and may land on or even in your ear. Once they have entered the inner-ear (middle-ear), there they begin their breeding process, and from there they have access to every avenue throughout our body.
