The interaction of electromagnetic (EM) waves with the COVID-19 virus is studied to define the frequencies that cause maximum energy absorption by the virus and the power level needed to cause a lethal temperature rise. The full-wave EM simulator is used to model the virus and study the effects of its size and dielectric properties on the absorbed power across a wide range of frequencies. The results confirm potential resonance conditions, where specific frequencies produce maximum absorption and subsequent temperature rise that can destroy the virus. Furthermore, the study confirms that maximum power deposition in the virus occurs at specific wavelengths depending on its size. Also, the simulation is used to find the power required to destroy the virus and determine the total power required to destroy it in an oral activity, such as coughing, made by infected individuals. Furthermore, the study explained why irradiation by UV-C band is effective to decrease virus activity or even eradicate it.

This study was executed to investigate the heavy metal ( Ni, Cu, Zn) pollution of the Eastern Industrial Region in Mosul city in Nineveh province of Iraq. Heavy metals are measured In the blood serum of 40 workers and compared with the control group of (40) people from Mosul university. Elements were measured by using an atomic absorption (flame) spectrometer. The statistical analysis results revealed that investigated Blood serum samples are seriously polluted with toxic heavy metals.
