Yes. As I have pointed out before, if the CS kill rate exceeds the
pathogen multiplication rate, it will not be able to survive in the long
term.  In nearly pure water there is so little nutrients for anything to
consume, the multiplication rate will be extremely low, thus very small
amounts of CS would be required.  What I was referring to is the
statement that shaking it up will make it stronger.  That is typical of
how a homeopathic is made, dilute and shake.
