Since the mechanism is in place , the next plan is to install these breath analyzers across the country .

Professor Gabby Sarusi and his team from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev came up with this analyzer.

To make the device work faster, they relied on checking the frequency to indicate the presence of the virus.

Superfast Coronavirus Breath Analyzer
Since the virus is similar to a nano-particle, with the diameter ranging from 100nm to 140nm, the researchers thought of using methods often useful in photonics, physics, and electrical engineering. In their experiments, they found that the novel Coronavirus resonates in the THz frequency. Spectroscopy of these frequencies easily detected the presence of the virus.
Hey, are you on Instagram? Check out the official Truth Theory Instagram page HERE, we upload new content every day.
The team was quick to design a hand-held breath analyzer once the method was fixed. They collaborated with the Defence Ministry of Israel to develop this product. It will have a chip with deeply packed sensors that can capture tiny particles from the exhaled breath, and thus find the virus.
In about 20 minutes, the chip can be read by a THz spectroscopy to give results. Even if a person shows no symptoms of carrying the virus, the chip will show anomalies in the THz spectral range. This would indicate the presence of SARS-CoV-2. So this whole detection process can be done in under a minute!
Since the mechanism is in place, the next plan is to install these breath analyzers across the country. They will first put them at ports, cruise ships, and workspaces. Each analyzer will be capable of processing breaths of nearly 4000 people each day.
But before they can set up shop, the team has to complete the validation process. Then the device would need Food and Drug Administration’s approval before finally reaching the common public. FDA has a fast-tracking system for such cases now. So these breath analyzers can probably be accessible to the common public by September 2020.

Marija Vuckovic, Minister of Agriculture, told media sources that the investigation points to the fact that the bees did not have a natural death. However, she decided to stay quiet until the authorities concluded their investigation.
Local beekeepers have also spoken out against the Save River that flows near the region. They claimed that the river is polluted because of the antibiotics disposed of in it.
Although the fifty million bees dead is definitely a cause for concern, Vrbos stated that since the area of impact is small, the national economy won’t falter due to this. He added that that the incident was a local one and so the crop yield from across the country is unlikely to be affected because of it.
Thankfully, the Croatian government has deemed the incident a natural disaster. All the beekeepers affected by the incident are eligible for compensation.
While northern Croatia was the one to face the burnt this time, we need to remember that bees across the globe are facing similar dangers. An intensified use of herbicides and pesticides is severely harming the global bee population. The growing trend of monoculture has added another factor to this already trite situation.
The fifty million bees dead in Croatia should be a triggering message of warning for us all.

Pitbulls have always had a rough life, as they are heavily prejudiced against. But Hades turned out to be a loving pitbull. He showed that what matters is what’s inside one’s heart. He showed that appearances don’t matter.
Hades hails from Mexico, living with his owner Juan José P. Flores. As far as Flores can remember, his household was visited by a pregnant cat. He used to lovingly feed her with whatever he had. Now, everyone knows that dogs and cats have been considered to be mortal enemies. But not this time! Hades turned the other way round and started caring for the cat in his loving way.
Loving Pitbull Makes Way For An Expecting Cat
Flores recalls an incident a few days back when he noticed his loving pitbull create a racket. he thought he was simply trying to get attention. As he followed his dog out, he found that Hades had shared his doghouse with quite a familiar figure.
Flores was naturally surprised at the almost humane act by his dog. He had given his home to her because she needed a place to stay and deliver her babies. And Hades had turned out to be the knight in shining armor.
But that isn’t all Hades did. After giving his home away, he decided to hang out to protect her. Placing a blanket at the foot of his doghouse, he waited as she gave birth to two cute little kittens. Needless to say, the cat was exceedingly happy that she had been able to deliver her babies in such a good place. Flores noted that his loving pitbull, too, couldn’t control his excitement.
As it should, Flores has transported the cat and her kittens inside the house where they kept a close eye on her. And it seems Nicol (the cat) and Hades have developed a close bond. now, she always hangs around with him as soon as she is done looking after her kittens.

For hundreds of years, various crop circles around the world have captured peoples’ imaginations.
But anyone hoping that these Japanese circles could perhaps be related to an alien landing site or similar conspiracies will be disappointed.
That’s because the Japanese crop circles are a result of a scientific experiment which was initiated in 1973. It was undertaken by the Japan Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.
‘Top secret’ crop circle
At the time, it was top secret. But subsequently it has been revealed that the real reason for the crop circles was simply because officials wanted to measure the effects of how spacing would affect the density of the trees.
The trees planted are sugi (Japanese cedar) trees and the circles are close to Nichinan City, on the island of Kyushu. The trees were planted in 10 degree radial increments, resulting in 10 concentric circles of varying sizes.
Sugi trees have a high concentration of oil, making them more resistance to insect attacks and therefore more likely to survive over time.
It had initially been planned that the trees – around 700 were planted – would be harvested after 50 years, in 2023.
However, it is now seeming more likely that the tree circles will be maintained as tourist attractions.
‘Crop art’
Today it is believed there are around 10,000 crop circles in numerous nations worldwide. Most of these have been made by humans, either hoping to stir up some interest about ‘UFO’ landing sites and the like, or just expressing themselves artistically.
England, which already hosts the famous Stonehenge formation, has been very popular for people building crop circles since the 1970’s.
Japan is also known for its ‘crop art’ – amazing artworks carved out in rice paddies.
