I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we are concerned about where science is taking us. When You are not at the center, dangers abound. Give us discernment from You for the times we are living in.

One military doctor is calling a next-generation technology that could ultimately stop a future pandemic, “a human check engine light.”

It’s actually a tiny hydro-gel sensor that sits right under the skin and was originally developed to help treat diabetes.

But for the Defense Department, it’s a way to stop the spread of infection in its tracks.

“What we do is we say, ‘Well the science is interesting but we’re translating that into application and benefit and its something frankly the Department of Defense does really well,” said Dr. Matthew Hepburn, M.D., the vaccine lead for Operational Warp Speed. “We can see science but we say, we have a mission, we have a national security mission…”

Hepburn told CBN News he’s devoted his entire career to finding a way to prevent that from happening again. “What we want to do is detect an infection as early as possible, before someone even spreads it to another person, to try and prevent that infection in the first place, so that it never happens, but if it does, we detect and treat,” he noted. “What we also might want to do is make sure everybody else is protected.

That’s now possible, thanks to a tiny hydro-gel bio-sensor. It’s placed under the skin and from there it’s able to measure what’s going on at a tissue level. For example, it can measure the levels of lactate in your body…

The sensor doesn’t tell you what kind of infection you may be getting. It’s more of an alert. Hepburn compares it to a check engine light.

“A check engine light doesn’t say, ‘There’s a problem, you’re out of oil.’ It just says, ‘There may be something wrong with your engine, take a closer look,” he said…

This next-generation technology was invented by Profusa, a private sector company. They created it to help treat diabetes, but through a partnership with the Defense Department, the sensor has been developed to serve a number of other purposes….

This technology is currently in clinical trials. All vaccines and treatments provided by the Defense Department have to go through FDA approval and this one is well on its way to getting that endorsement.

“prevent infection so it never spreads” – sure!
What if whatever has been identified as “infection” (or, is that really the goal?) is actually some factor God put there for our benefit? There are billions of unseen little critters in our guts and soil that are essential for life, which we’re only just learning about.
What arrogance to quench one of these (if that’s the real goal)! God resists the proud!
And He HAS overcome fear, with power, love, and a sound mind! Hallelujah!

No matter what kind of infection it is…. Wonderful. Now we can be forced to hide out for a UTI or an infection of the skin or some such thing. It doesn’t say the infection has to be spreadable but what does that matter. Father, help us to stand firm for liberty and may our leaders look to you and the Constitution for their decisions!

Welcome to “1984” Orwell book
Chinese are already there
The Chinese have a firm in SEA monitoring and tracking government sites of people who sign up for CV19 testing and tracking….
First step
“New World Order”….
The computers and robots will become autonomous as AI evades us…
