COVID-19 WARRIORS
Nowadays, the world suffers from Covid-19. Covid-19 is a global pandemic that threat all people around the world.so, we found that Covid-19 fighting is one of the most challenges we must face. Our project is to use the ultrasound waves in killing the virus inside and outside the body. We will use an ultrasound transducer in directing the virus to the waves. These waves have a specific frequency its range starts from 25.5 Hz. This frequency is the one at which the virus dies. We consider that the ultrasound waves cause an internal energy inside and This energy that kept in the target material (Covid-19) can cause disruption or destruction of the target material. And as we know, till now there is no solutions fight this pandemic, our project when it applied. It will cause a big revolution around the world.
(COVID-19) is an illness in the respiratory system in the humans. It is the new virus that is impacting the whole world badly as it is spreading primarily through contact with the person. When an infected person meets with another person then by touches their nose, eyes, and mouth the virus can be spread. There is no current vaccines are made by the scientist which can prevent these diseases. Coronavirus has a great impact on the economy of the country as it brings the slow down to the economy and causes much harm to the growth of the country. The countries are getting into the recession through the coronavirus, the share marketing is declining and there is a loss in the global income of the country. The economy is getting worst as the global supply chain is declining and people are also facing many other issues. More than 154,000 people have died from COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, while some 2.2 million infections have been confirmed in at least 185 countries and territories. More than 500,000 people have recovered to date.
the ultrasound waves can be used in damaging covid-19. The ultrasound waves are a sound waves with frequency (>20 kHz). As we know that the cells and viruses have a specific frequency and damaged also at another specific one, we will direct the Covid-19 to the ultrasound waves with frequency from the range starts from 25.5 Hz and choose the frequency at which the surrounding cells can not affected by the waves. Then, ultrasound tuned to the specific resonance frequency of a target material causes a rapid increase in internal energy within the target material. The energy kept in the target material can cause disruption or destruction of the target material, via cavitation . the application of ultrasound tuned to the specific resonance frequency of a target material changes the conformation of the target material or part of it whereby previously obstructed 4 antigenic components of the target material are more easily accessible to materials that would otherwise not detect or bind to the antigenic components. In this context, change in the target material refers to a change that directly or indirectly leads to destruction or inactivation of a target material or of the components of the target material.
COVID-19, as we know, is a global pandemic as WHO reported that. All of people affected and unaffected around the world suffer from this pandemic. That is because the disease is an infectious and the people affected around the world more than two million and the number increase by time. COVID-19 cause the lockdown to all countries and affect the economy. Till now, there is no therapy combat and fight the virus and there is no vaccine. So that, finding a solution is very important and helpful at these moments. It will decrease the people affected and number of deaths. It will also return the life to the traditional one and the Economy will be refreshed again. So, the needs of the whole world, all people and scientists is to find a therapy that help to fight this virus.
as we know that the challenge is talking about combating pandemic and infectious diseases and Covid-19 is the latest pandemic one of the series of the infectious diseases. also all of people and countries around the world suffer from this virus and all scientist are trying till now to find a therapy and a vaccine to the virus. our main problem is COVID-19 fighting. and our solution is the therapy to fight this virus.
- Concept: An idea being explored for its feasibility to build a product, service, or business model based on that idea
- A new technology
We are the first team to work on the effect of ultrasound waves on the Covid-19 and we did a deep research about the scientific base of the process and we found that it is effective in lots of viruses like influenza, KLEBSIELLA PNEUMONIAE, SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE, and MIYAGAWANELLA FELIS. so, we think that it will make a big change and we can use it for the fighting of the viruses.
Our device used to produce the ultrasound waves is called ultrasound transducer. this device composed from piezo electric cells. so our core technology will be the electric energy that will supply the transducer.
it is used in fighting some viruses like KLEBSIELLA PNEUMONIAE, SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE, MIYAGAWANELLA
FELIS, And Influenza A virus.

A method of treating a disease, comprising: selecting or determining a resonant frequency of a target material associated with the disease; modifying the resonant frequency of the target material based upon at least one of depth of the target material in a target containing material, identity of materials through which the ultrasound passes between an ultrasound generator and the target material, number of material boundaries or tissue interfaces in the target containing material through which the ultrasound passes between the ultrasound generator and the target material, and resonant frequency of surrounding healthy structures; and directing ultrasound to the target containing material comprising the target material at about the modified resonant frequency of the target material to destroy the target material without substantially harming surrounding healthy structures.

Currently, there is no persons but by time, it will serve all affected people.
To make the device available to all countries and people with low cost.
It need High-Tech labs to apply the tests that is not available in Egypt.
Applying the test on high-tech labs in some countries like US and other.
