However, if you consider the circumstances, Rika's murder is known (meaning that there is no "mystery"), and also, Rika was injected with C130, meaning that the Queen viruses could have been destroyed, losing the influence it had.

Also, we don't actually get info on what exactly happened during the GHD operation. We know the basic outline, but whether the residents started showing signs of insanity, or were perfectly normal, is not know.

So, do you think the Queen carrier theory is correct, or is it a flawed theory that became the excuse to start GHD?
The theory is just plain wrong because it is based on a lack of knowledge of one essential fact, that Oyashiro-Sama is not imaginary. Thus, Rika does indeed have a calming influence on infectees but it has nothing to do with her infection being different from any other infectee. The queen parasite is a pseudo-rational theory to account for a supernatural phenomenon. That being said, without an incarnation of Oyashiro-Sama, the villagers are probably at greater risk of psychosis.
