SONTAKU (Japanese) = Guessing the intentions of someone in a higher position and acting blindly in accordance with them. A word that has been around for about 1000 years.

Eric Topol won a US$207 million grant in 2016, when Topol received an important part of the National Institutes of Health (All of Us Research Program), 1 million American prospective research program. Led the Precision Medicine Initiative. This funding was renewed in 2023 for 282 million dollars over 5 years. (by Wiki)

Now Eric Topol has SONTAKU.

Two or three layers above that is Bill Gates.

While seeming clear that the military was seeking a rapid vaccine platform that developed into mRNA. Sadly the platform still required a carrier lipid that prevents or slows human immune system defenses thus still has issues, as does the choice of the spike protein payload. While the military can accept greater collateral damage from a really lethal virus, the public cannot, especially for a milder virus like SARs-CoV-2. The eventual fallout from the recent "trials" has yet to be resolved. Most are getting madder as time goes on.

Meanwhile, we are doing well to keep our immune systems strong via nutrition and supplements. Near as I can tell that's about all we can do and allow our system as much chance as possible.

A DC UPS does make sense, glad you got one to work. Most data systems today run mostly on DC with PC power supplies for the blades. Oddly the telecos figured out that long ago. Don't know if the modern switches went DC. The telcos once used rooms full of lead-acid batteries, like autos.
