Scientists at the Pentagon's secretive unit are researching viruses and developing pandemic cures

They work at Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and other Pentagon laboratories

DARPA's teams saw COVID-19 infected 1,271 onboard USS Theodore Roosevelt as the virus spread unchecked

In response they have developed a microchip to detect asymptomatic COVID in a bid to prevent an outbreak

The chip is inserted below skin and triggers a sensor if COVID infects the body

DARPA have also created a filter which can remove COVID virus from the blood when attached to dialysis

They are working on a vaccine that would work against all coronaviruses, even ones not yet identified

The team also successfully manufactured antibodies against Spanish Flu

How can they strip the virus from the blood without crushing every cell that passes through the machine? Just don't see how that is possible since they can't even electronic microscope a virus.
