Ana Mihalcea is an internal medicine physician, with a PhD in pathology, and is the founder of AM Medical LLC.

All things are poison and nothing is without poison; only the dose permits something not to be poisonous.

What is going on with this vaccinated blood?

Zandre Botha talked to me in 2021 about strange things happening in blood that has been vaccinated. I recommend listening to that conversation too.

Electromagetic radiation

Fatigue, weakness, and effects on the immune system are some side effects of electromagnetic frequencies’ direct contact with the human body.

Specific targets include the endocrine system, blood coagulation, and glucose metabolism.

We know how electromagnetic radiation affects humans, and 5G networks definitely pose health risks, argues Ana. Former telecoms specialist, Dafna Tachover, said much the same thing to me back in 2021.

Radio waves, microwaves, and X-rays are all types of electromagnetic radiation that can hurt people in various ways.

However, radio waves, microwaves, and other low-level energies don’t damage cells directly, but can heat up body tissues.

Hormesis

As an aside, I recommend listening to my conversation about nuclear power.

Hormesis is the idea that a small amount of something that most people think of as bad can actually be good. To put it another way, a little radiation is not dangerous to our health. But large amounts can be. Every day, we come into contact with radiation, and paradoxically, it makes us healthier.

For example, we experience the following every day:

Radon gas from ground and cosmic radiation

Potassium-40 in foods

Carbon-14 in all living things and atmosphere

Radiation and decay products in soil and building materials

Uranium and thorium in soil and rocks

Smoke detectors containing small amounts of americium-241

Medical x-rays and scans

Cigarette smoke containing lead-210 and polonium-210

Coal ash from coal power plants containing trace radioactive elements

But it can go bad

Meanwhile, molecular bonds can be broken by high-energy radiation like X-rays and gamma rays, which damage cells directly. X-rays can make you more likely to get cancer by damaging DNA and messing up normal functions.

Microwaves and radio waves have long been known to interact with human biology; although, the precise effects are still somewhat unknown.

Consider 5G.

A study submitted to the European Parliament found evidence that it has biological effects on plants and animals. https://jermwarfare.docdroid.com/YT1jUI1/environmental-impacts-of-5g-pdf

Transhumanism

Ana discussed, with me, the transhumanist agenda and the presence of self-assembling nanotechnology in blood (from the jab).

She highlighted the connection between the World Economic Forum and the United Nations in promoting nanotechnology as part of their Sustainable Development goals.

Their goals are neither sustainable nor about development.

What is nanotech?

Nanotechnology is the study and control of matter on the nanoscale.

To put this in perspective, a single nanometer is one billionth of a meter. At this tiny scale, ordinary materials can demonstrate extraordinary properties.

A single sheet of paper is about 100,000 nanometers thick.

Nanomaterials are used in nanoelectronics to make computers, phones, and circuits faster and stronger. Nanomaterials are also being made for energy, transportation, and building.

Nanobots can assemble themselves.

It’s very creepy.

The COVID-19 mRNA ‘vaccines’ made by Pfizer and Moderna use lipid nanoparticles to deliver the mRNA that – they tell us – codes for the SARS-CoV-2 virus’s spike protein. (Christine Massey, however, showed that SARS-CoV-2 does not exist.)

She presented evidence of very weird metals in vaccines and their potential use in building biosensors, which is why you need to watch (not listen) to our conversation.

Ana suggests that hydrogels and blood clots are influenced by electromagnetic fields (EMFs), and includes the role of 5G as a culprit.

She emphasises the importance of clean food and water, something with which I wholeheartedly agree. In fact, I follow a generally low-carbohydrate lifestyle.

Here’s my conversation with her.

Embedding nanodiamonds in polymer can advance quantum computing and biological studies

A nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center is a defect in the crystal structure of diamond, where a nitrogen atom replaces a carbon atom in the diamond lattice and a neighboring site in the lattice is vacant. This and other fluorescent defects in diamond, known as color centers, have attracted researchers' attention owing to their quantum properties, such as single-photon emission at room temperature and with long coherence time. Their many applications include quantum information encoding and processing, and cell marking in biological studies. Microfabrication in diamond is technically difficult, and nanodiamonds with color centers have been embedded in custom-designed structures as a way of integrating these quantum emitters into photonic devices. A study conducted at the University of São Paulo's São Carlos Institute of Physics (IFSC-USP) in Brazil has established a method for this, as described in an article published in the journal Nanomaterials.

Mildred S. Dresselhaus -- the celebrated MIT professor known as the "Queen of Carbon Science," whose research helped unlock the mysteries of carbon -- was born on this day in 1930. A member of the MIT faculty for 50 years, the solid-state physicist was the first woman to ever attain the rank of full, tenured professor at the university. Dresselhaus was also the first woman to win the National Medal of Science in Engineering and was known nationally for her work to develop wider opportunities for women in science and engineering. The author of eight books and 1,700 scientific papers, “Millie’s dedication to research was unparalleled, and her enthusiasm was infectious,” says Anantha Chandrakasan, head of MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering. “For the past half-century, students, faculty and researchers at MIT and around the world have been inspired by her caring advice... She made such a huge impact on MIT, and her contributions will long be remembered.”

Born to Polish immigrant parents in Brooklyn, New York in 1930, Dresselhaus originally intended to become a teacher, but Rosalyn Yalow -- who herself would go on to win a Nobel Prize in Medicine -- encouraged her to consider a career in physics. After studying under Nobel laureate Enrico Fermi at the Univeristy of Chicago, Dresselhaus came to MIT in 1960 and became a permanent member of the electrical engineering faculty in 1968. Over her long career, she made fundamental discoveries in the electronic structure of semi-metals; wrote a definitive text on fullerenes, the spherical molecules better known as buckyballs; and was especially well-known for her research on nanomaterials. When Dresselhaus was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Barack Obama in 2015, the White House described her as “one of the most prominent physicists, materials scientists, and electrical engineers of her generation.”

For decades, Dresselhaus, who died in 2017 at the age of 86, worked to advance greater gender equality in science and engineering. In 1971, she and a colleague organized the first Women’s Forum at MIT in 1971. Two years later, she received a Carnegie Foundation grant to continue exploring ways to encourage women in science and engineering. She also supervised more than 60 doctoral candidates, leaving her mark on the field for years to come. When she gave the keynote speech at 2015’s Rising Stars in EECS, a three-day workshop for female graduate students and postdocs, Dresselhaus focused on the importance of persistence, relating stories about her own graduate work with legendary physicist Enrico Fermi, whose program was notoriously difficult. “It was what you did that counted,” she said, “and that followed me through life.”

Method to measure molecular distribution of MXene enables quality control in production process

Developed in 2011, MXene is a two-dimensional nanomaterial with alternating metal and carbon layers, which has high electrical conductivity and can be combined with various metal compounds, making it a material that can be utilized in various industries such as semiconductors, electronic devices, and sensors. To properly utilize MXene, it is important to know the type and amount of molecules covered on the surface, and if the molecules covered on the surface are fluorine, the electrical conductivity of decreases and the efficiency of electromagnetic wave shielding decreases. However, since it is only 1nm thick, it takes several days to analyze the molecules on the surface even with a high-performance electron microscope, so mass production has been impossible until now. The research team led by Seung-Cheol Lee, director of the Indo-Korea Science and Technology Center(IKST) at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology(KIST), has developed a method to predict the distribution of molecules on the surface using the magnetoresistance property of MXene. The paper is published in the journal Nanoscale.
