Pandemics should open our eyes






Pandemics should open our eyes

The illusion is gone, when we are facing a COVID-19-type threat, and do you know, what makes this thing like black comedy, is that we should have predicted for that thing. H1N1 and SARS have shown that epidemics are more common than we have thought, and even in that case, we have not prepared, that there are more viruses, what is just waiting for the opportunity to cause infections and epidemics, and the thing is that if people don't know about this kind of things like pandemics, that doesn't make life easier.

This kind of threat is something, that we are not prepared, nothing, what we can control and nothing that we can ever see. We cannot remove this virus from our society by ordering it to leave, and the most important thing we cannot solve this problem by calling nice-looking uniforms wearing men in the office and say, that everything is under control. Normal people can do things like washing their hands, and that's it.

This is the best way to act in this kind of situation. When we are looking at writings in media, what is, of course, full of tales about this virus, the thing that we can see is despair. People are sitting in their homes and then there is nothing else to write like how many people are dying in the epidemics.

One of the most important things to do is to try to think something else than epidemics. We should not always fill our heads with stories about how many people will die and how many have died. But there is so much happened during epidemics. So positive thinking makes life easier behind the walls of epidemics.

When we are thinking about people, who are fighting against epidemics, their job happens mostly somewhere, where we are not allowed to visit. Medical doctors and nursery staff are key elements for taking care of infected people. But how we can even notice, if we have something new epidemics in our land?

The problem is that every virus is causing similar symptoms at the beginning of epidemics. And who would go to the doctor on the first day of the flu? The second question is would those medical doctors send the sample of the special laboratories, what can search the genetic material of the virus, and make the analysis, what would uncover if there is a new virus.

Mostly we are just thinking that viruses that we get are some kind of normal flu. And this is the thing, what even the highest trained immunologists and epidemiologists are doing. They would not send their blood tests to the BL-4 laboratory after they have sneezed, and this is the standard thing, what every normal person is doing.

Normal people are not reading material, which is created by some authorities like CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)(1), and normal people don't even know what is CDC? That authority is one of the most powerful and influential authority on this planet, and the work that these kinds of authorities are doing makes them very hard to control.

The analysis of genetic data of viruses needs very highly trained personnel and the thing that we must realize is that the particles, what those people are handling are so small, and effective analysis of the virus particles requires highly advanced tools and personnel, who own high moral and ethics what is combined with highly trained personnel, who have skills to translate and analyze the genetic data of viruses.

When we are thinking about pandemics, we must realize that there are billions and billions of viruses on the Earth. On the Earth is no laboratory, what can search the entire genetic material, what is in those viruses. So there is always some kind of pandemics going on, and most of those pandemics are harmless. Or how many times we would wake up in the night, and feel that we have like sand in our throat? That kind of thing is also an infection, what is caused by some virus. And in the morning we hardly remember those things, what happened in the night.

That kind of thing is mostly harmless, but for AIDS and organ transplant patients this kind of virus could be lethal. This is one way to see things. If our immune system doesn't work right or doesn't react things like fungus are dangerous. The infection can forward in eyes, and the fungus would terminate tissues largely, and if the surgery team would not have time to cut off tissues from enough large areas, that would cause death in hours.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme.

The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
