In this paper, we assess the possible effects of sunspot numbers on the world virus appearance. The literature has no sufficient results about these phenomena. So, in this study, we try to connect solar ray extrema to virus generation and the history of pandemics. Therefore, we used wavelet decomposition for smoothing the sunspot cycle to predict past pandemics and forecast future time of possible virus generation using multi-step autoregression (MSAR). Finally, we investigate the geographical appearance of viruses in the world to show vulnerable places in the world.


The Earth is shielded by a magnetic field against solar particles and cosmic rays. However, during the maximum and minimum of sunspot, this magnetic field cannot withstand certain elements. Three molecular mechanisms, namely, point mutations, gene recombination, and gene range, are responsible for the emerging pandemic virus strains (Domingo 2010).
Solar and cosmic rays may be a physical mutagen that causes point mutations that could contribute to a pandemic caused by COVID-19 strains. Point mutations in RNA on a more or less constant basis cause relatively small improvements in the virus’ genetic drifts.


Essentially radiation causes mutation to organisms and alterations to viral programming. Thus during periods of high incoming solar or cosmic radiation levels, the magnetic field has an inability to prevent this which leads to viral mutations or programming changes. Factor in the fact that the earths magnetic field is weakening and becoming more chaotic and you can see that it becomes more likely for viral mutations during these extrema periods. Another element not discussed here is the fact that when the earths magnetic field becomes chaotic and shoots off into space like a bubble, when that bubble returns, it brings back with it organisms in space from things like comet/meteor debris as well as cooling the thermosphere as the plasma there loses heat into space. Thats a whole different problem for another post.

What this means is virus mutation will occur more frequently as its exposed greater amounts of radiation due to the weakening field in combination with solar exterma. They can alot merge with other extraterrestrial virus material and thus create something new...to us. Think of viruses like nanobots and new viral material from extraterrestrial sources that they incorporate as new commands they incorporate into their genetic programming. Sintx Silicon Nitride doesnt kill viruses as they were never living, it shuts them down or de-activates them. We say kill because its an easier concept to convey to the reader. Silicon nitride is not the only material that deactivates viruses. Copper is another material used. However, while copper deactivates viruses, it also kills living cells. Meanwhile Nitrides like Silicon Nitride de-activated the virions but the living cells remained living. So copper is not just "toxic" to the virions but to the host as well. So while Copper is a needed mineral, theres a balance that must be maintained before it becomes toxic to the body.

As we move into more dangerous times with the earths magnetic field weakening, increase in pandemics, i believe we will have a growing need for materials like Sintx Silicon Nitride. I honestly cannot stress how important this material is to the future.

Instantaneous “catch-and-kill” inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 by nitride ceramics

A striking result was that cells inoculated with supernatant treated with Si3N4 and, to a lesser extent, with AlN, were viable and showed a low fraction of infected cells. On the other hand, cells infected with Cu-treated viral supernatant were essentially dead (see complete lack of F-actin), clearly indicating that it was free copper ions in the cells having toxic effects, and not viral infection, that caused cell death.

========================================

Oh and Joe, i do not know how you can classify their work on R&D in regards to developing a Si3N4 powder that can be imbued into materials giving those material these benefits as anything but a success. In addition to that they found a way to tweak the material to enhance the properties which is why AP2 was born. Again a success in R&D. Yes they havent commercialized the products, yet, but its still a success outside of paying salaries. You cannot commercialize a new product without first developing it and patenting it if you do not want others to steel your work.

========================================

For anyone that will find this interesting here is a good article explaining why viruses are not really living and are more like droids...or id say like nanobots. These bots seem to play an important role, along with radiation, in evolution.

Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms. (Think Data from Star Trek, Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator, the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica or the robots in I, Robot). Just like crazy killer robots, viruses are created fully formed, and rely on host materials to build and power themselves.

A summer COVID-19 surge has led to a likely rise in infections in half of U.S. states, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a spike that comes as drug makers await approval for new vaccines that will target the coronavirus’ latest variant—though hospitalizations remain fairly low.



Summer covid surge hits at least 84 countries and continues to climb

A summer covid wave — and the accompanying fevers, coughs and general misery — continues to wash over the Americas and parts of Asia and Europe, including the Paris Olympics, offering the latest evidence that the coronavirus moves in ways distinct from other respiratory ailments.

The World Health Organization said this week that the virus is increasing in at least 84 countries despite perceptions that the pathogen is a remnant of the past. Disease trackers sounded alarms that diminished testing and low vaccination rates could provide fertile terrain for more dangerous viral variants to take hold.

“Covid-19 is still very much with us,” Maria Van Kerkhove, a WHO epidemiologist, said at a news briefing Tuesday.

At least 40 athletes have tested positive for the coronavirus and other respiratory illnesses, suggesting that the virus may not exhibit the same seasonal patterns as the common cold, flu and respiratory syncytial virus — widely known as RSV — which tend to strike during cold-weather months.
