“You put it underneath your skin and what that tells you is that there are chemical reactions going on inside the body”

The Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is working on a COVID vaccine that will work on all variants and has developed an implantable microchip that it says will continuously monitor the human body for signs of the virus.

Retired Colonel Matt Hepburn, an army infectious disease physician heading up DARPA’s response to the pandemic, appeared on 60 Minutes to demonstrate the technology.

Holding up a vial of green tissue-like gel, which contains the chip, Hepburn proclaimed “You put it underneath your skin and what that tells you is that there are chemical reactions going on inside the body, and that signal means you are going to have symptoms tomorrow.”

“It’s like a ‘check engine’ light,” Hepburn added, noting that those with the chip “would get the signal, then self-administer a blood draw and test themselves on site.”

“We can have that information in three to five minutes,” Hepburn continued, adding “As you truncate that time, as you diagnose and treat, what you do is you stop the infection in its tracks.”

Must be Paris before the first war.

 

I love her voice.  It's so unique.  She had an amazingly rough life wrought with despair, and yet she still persevered.

The French Foreign Legion adopted her song for their own.

A man washed up on a beach after a shipwreck. The only other survivors from the sinking were a sheep and a sheepdog who were washed-up with him. 
After looking around, he realized that they were stranded on a habitable but deserted island. 
After being there awhile, he got into the habit of taking his two animal companions to the beach every evening to watch the sunset. 
One particular evening, the sky was a fiery red with beautiful cirrus clouds, the breeze was warm and gentle … would have been a perfect night for romance. 
As they sat there, the sheep started looking better and better to the lonely man. Soon, he leaned over to the sheep and put his arm around it. 
The sheepdog, ever-protective of the sheep, growled fiercely until the man took his arm from around the sheep. 
After that, the three of them continued to enjoy the sunsets together, but there was no more cuddling. 
A few months passed by and, lo and behold, there was another shipwreck. The only survivor was Nancy Pelosi. 
That evening, the man brought Nancy along with his animal friends to the evening beach ritual. 
It was another beautiful evening … red sky, cirrus clouds, a warm and gentle breeze, perfect for a night of romance. 
Pretty soon, the man started to get those feelings again. 
He fought the urges as long as he could but he finally gave in and leaned over to Nancy and told her he hadn't had sex for months. 
Nancy batted her eyelashes and asked if there was anything she could do for him. 
He said, “You could take the sheepdog for a walk."
