What is most difficult for people to let go of is the notion, so deeply
engrained in our society, that a disease is the same as a bacteria or a
virus. This way of looking at the world, as a battlefied instead of a
community, is wrong. Yes, there is a respiratory virus associated with
influenza. No, the virus does not cause the disease. Influenza is a
neurological disease that can affect almost every organ, with or without
respiratory symptoms. It is caused by electricity.

“In Melbourne millimetre wave trials across 25% of the city just began. This morning, on my walk with a neighbour we were mortified to see dead bees and insects on the ground throughout our hour long walk, all the way to a nature park and all along the streets back home.”
MORE SATELLITES LAUNCHED
On Wednesday, March 18, SpaceX launched 60 more satellites into space from Cape Canaveral, Florida, bringing the total of SpaceX’s Starlink satellites orbiting the earth to 350.
Also on March 18, OneWeb launched 34 more satellites into space from the Baikonur Cosmo-drome in Kazakhstan, bringing the total of OneWeb’s satellites orbiting the earth to 74.
None of these satellites have yet gone into operation, but on March 13, 2020, the Federal Communications Commission granted SpaceX permission to sell one million user devices to American customers. This has turned a long-standing concern into an emergency. For last fall, SpaceX announced its intention to begin providing 5G service to the northern United States and southern Canada after it had at least 400 satellites orbiting the earth. The threat to terrestrial life — at least in portions of North America — may now be only weeks away.
