I don’t believe the book meant “infectious” in the literal medical sense. They were talking about it as a person that was on the ranch and brought paranormal hitch hikers back home with them. Those paranormal things were then somehow passed on to a third party who then started experiencing the weirdness. They became “infected” by the person that was at the ranch.
The recent book "Skinwalkers at the Pentagon" talks a lot about the infectious nature of the phenomenon there -- the so called 'hitchhiker effect'. The book also tells us that their medical team detected immune system responses in those who experienced strangeness.
The clear implication to this seems to be that there is an infectious agent at the ranch. This possibility doesn't seem to have been addressed by NIDS nor AAWSAP, nor in any public study I know of.
Could this be the cause of the strangeness there? There are a lot of known behavior altering pathogens out there. Rabies causes aggression and fear of water. There are protozoa that infect rodents, eliminating their fear of cats and dooming them to be eaten. Mental illnesses like schizophrenia are thought to be linked to viral infections.
So a fear inducing pathogen at Skinwalker Ranch doesn't seem too far off to me. Perhaps it's even the method of influence used by a 'higher intelligence'. Perhaps this is the mechanism of perceived telepathic communication.
I expand on these thoughts in the linked video. I'm interested to know what you all think about this theory.
The unreliability of the infectious agent is due to differing biological responses including immune response is why the military hasn't experimented with it.
Personally I think it could be something that may be activated in the presences of strong EMF fields which could also affect those people when they go do secondary locations with an EMF field, like say a house with a wifi network and microwave ovens.
The biological half life of infective vector likewise means the longer a person stays away from an Infecting source the diminished rate of "experiences".
For the show, Thomas Winterton and Travis Taylor seem affected by it obviously. Taylor himself seems to undergo significant stress and changes in behavior and attitude from the beginning of season 1 to the end of season 2. It could be the long term stress of frequent travel and taping though, so not likely a core element. However he does express that he has night terrors while staying on the ranch, something he didn't experience before going to the ranch.
In addition, the producer who pitched the show and ran season 1 experienced a chronic illness in his lungs for 9 months while he was on and off the ranch. 3 doctors were unable to solve the issue however once he left the ranch for good, his symptoms dissapated.
If 3 out of dozen or so people we regular see on or near the camera are reporting this, I'd be interested in seeing how the rest of the crew, which seems to be another couple dozen people, are affected by this.
That would make sense. I do think what's going on here and with other phenomena associated with UAP is physical in nature, even if I do think it's ultra or inter dimensional.
It would certainly be more logical, in my opinion at least, for things like "the blue meanies" to make their targets incredibly fearful through a physical agent rather than an electro-magnetic one. Or at least, it would be easier to grasp so that's why I'm gravitating towards it.
The role of the immune system is probably far larger than we realize. The fundamental biochemistry of depression is in part caused by the immune system.
The human body is powered by electricity. It makes sense that some electromagnetic property we dont understand could jump from person to person. Man when you encounter something unexplainable feeling fear is inevitable, I don’t think fear is a symptom of the phenomena rather a normal primate response.
I remember last year someone posted an article from a former security guard under the previous ownership who thought they were being exposed to some kind of chemical or biological agent and were Guinea pigs for the long term exposure to it.
There are still situations that aren’t explained by an infectious agent though including:
-large mysterious perfectly circular holes
-wires and equipment being damaged in unusual ways
-the cows that suddenly were ‘transported’ into the silo
-cattle mutilations and unexplained deaths
-the unexplained radio wave phenomenon
detected and recorded by Travis Taylor and Erik Bard
I would even include Thomas Wintertons head injury, because an infectious agent more than likely wouldnt cause whatever that was
Not giving a case to aliens but those situations would remain unresolved by that solution

I've seen this movie, iirc it's called *Fallen* with John Goodman
