Abstract

Mikroorganismen wie das Coronavirus COVID-19 haben keine Resistenzmechanismen gegen hochenergetische, kurzwellige UVC-Emissionen, mit Wellenlängen von 50 bis 300 nm. Die UVC-Strahlung kann über ein Endoskop direkt in die Lunge eingeführt und der Virus somit abgetötet werden.Die UVC-Strahlung wird von den RNS- Strängen absorbiert und sorgt dafür, dass die Nukleotidsequenzen „verklumpen“. Diese Tatsache verhindert die Reproduktion der Zellen oder tötet sie sogar ab. In beiden Fällen ist das Virus nicht mehr gefährlich.Die Erfindung geht davon aus, dass Mikroorganismen, wie das Coronavirus COVID-19, durch intelligente Ausrichtung und kontrollierte Bestrahlung mit künstlich erzeugten UVC-Strahlen, deaktiviert werden können, und damit betroffenen Patienten lebensrettend geholfen werden kann.Microorganisms such as the coronavirus COVID-19 have no mechanisms of resistance to high-energy, short-wave UVC emissions, with wavelengths of 50 to 300 nm. The UVC radiation can be introduced directly into the lungs via an endoscope, thus killing the virus is absorbed by the RNA strands and ensures that the nucleotide sequences “clump” together. This fact prevents the cells from reproducing or even kills them. In both cases, the virus is no longer dangerous. The invention assumes that microorganisms such as the coronavirus COVID-19 can be deactivated through intelligent alignment and controlled irradiation with artificially generated UVC rays, thus helping affected patients to save lives can.

Description

Sämtliche lebenden Organismen auf dieser Erde, der Mensch wie auch sämtliche Mikroorganismen, besitzen keine Abwehrmechanismen gegen hochenergetische Strahlung im Wellenlängenbereich bis ca. 400 nm. Die Entwicklung von Resistenzmechanismen war insofern nicht erforderlich, indem diese Form der Strahlung, welche anteilmäßig auch im Sonnenlicht vorhanden ist, durch das elektromagnetische Feld der Erde und der Ozonschicht umgelenkt bzw. absorbiert wird. Alle Lebewesen dieser Erde sind damit vor dieser, im Prinzip lebensfeindlichen Strahlung, geschützt.All living organisms on this earth, humans as well as all microorganisms, have no defense mechanisms against high-energy radiation in the wavelength range up to approx. 400 nm. The development of resistance mechanisms was not necessary because this form of radiation, which is also partially present in sunlight , is deflected or absorbed by the electromagnetic field of the earth and the ozone layer. All living beings on earth are thus protected from this radiation, which in principle is hostile to life.

Da auch Mikroorganismen wie das Coronavirus COVID-19 keine Resistenzmechanismen dagegen entwickelt haben, kann auch dieser Virus mit künstlich erzeugten hochenergetischen kurzwelligen UVC-Emissionen abgetötet werden. Die Bestrahlung der Viren kann über ein Endoskop direkt in der Lunge erfolgen. Die Wellenlängen spielen hierbei eine entscheidend wichtige Rolle. Der Bereich von 25 bis 300 nm, der als UVC-Strahlung bezeichnet wird, ist in der Wirkung besonders effektiv und kann daher zur Sterilisation und Desinfektion verwendet werden.Since microorganisms such as the coronavirus COVID-19 have not developed any resistance mechanisms against it, this virus can also be killed with artificially generated high-energy short-wave UVC emissions. The viruses can be irradiated directly in the lungs using an endoscope. The wavelengths play a crucial role here. The range from 25 to 300 nm, which is referred to as UVC radiation, is particularly effective and can therefore be used for sterilization and disinfection.

Viren können sich nur mit Hilfe eines Wirts vermehren. Vom Virus befallene Zellen werden durch dessen Ribonukleinsäure (RNS) so „umprogrammiert“, dass sie neue Viren produzieren können. Diese werden dann im Körper freigesetzt und befallen weitere Zellen. Die Wirtszellen werden durch den Reproduktionsprozess zerstört, was im Wirtskörper Erkrankungen hervorruft. Da jedes Virus nur bestimmte Zelltypen befällt, werden unterschiedliche Krankheitsbilder ausgelöst. Bei der Epidemie durch COVID-19 sind die Atemorgane betroffen.Viruses can only multiply with the help of a host. Cells infected by the virus are “reprogrammed” by its ribonucleic acid (RNA) so that they can produce new viruses. These are then released in the body and affect other cells. The host cells are destroyed by the reproductive process, which causes diseases in the host body. Since each virus only affects certain cell types, different clinical pictures are triggered. The respiratory organs are affected in the epidemic caused by COVID-19.

Die hochenergetische kurzwellige Strahlung wird von den RNS- Strängen absorbiert und sorgt dafür, dass die Nukleotidsequenzen „verklumpen“. Diese Tatsache verhindert die Reproduktion der Zellen oder tötet sie sogar ab. In beiden Fällen ist das Virus nicht mehr gefährlich, da es nur Schaden anrichtet, wenn es sich vermehren kann.The high-energy short-wave radiation is absorbed by the RNA strands and ensures that the nucleotide sequences “clump” together. This fact prevents the cells from reproducing or even kills them. In either case, the virus is no longer dangerous as it only does damage when it can multiply.

Die Erfindung geht davon aus, dass Mikroorganismen, wie das Coronavirus COVID-19, durch intelligente Ausrichtung und kontrollierte Bestrahlung mit künstlich erzeugten UVC-Strahlen, deaktiviert werden können, und damit betroffenen Patienten lebensrettend geholfen werden kann.The invention assumes that microorganisms such as the coronavirus COVID-19 can be deactivated through intelligent alignment and controlled irradiation with artificially generated UVC rays, and thus affected patients can be helped in a life-saving manner.
