This is new research so may not pan out, but still very interesting:

Microbiomes of human throat may be linked to schizophrenia

Studying microbiomes in throat may help identify causes and treatments of brain disorder

In the most comprehensive study to date, researchers at the George Washington University have identified a potential link between microbes (viruses, bacteria and fungi) in the throat and schizophrenia. This link may offer a way to identify causes and develop treatments of the disease and lead to new diagnostic tests.

"The oropharynx of schizophrenics seems to harbor different proportions of oral bacteria than healthy individuals," said Eduardo Castro-Nallar, a Ph.D. candidate at GW's Computational Biology Institute (CBI) and lead author of the study. "Specifically, our analyses revealed an association between microbes such as lactic-acid bacteria and schizophrenics."

I'm so during if they controlled for antipsychotics or smoking.....antipsychotics have already been shown to change the gut microbiota in rats.

this is exactly what i proposed several A months ago!
the telepathy like effect is likely being done in the throat to get gutteral internal thought/speech.
also a university created tattoo like things that go on the throat and can transmit thoughts to another person wearing one within a distance from you. im betting they will find something.

the fungi thing is probably the answer, as ive used pyrithione zinc shampoo, which kills fungus in scalp. and reduces voices.
