Vaccines against Covid-19 have sparked some (let’s say) wacky theories. And after 5G chips hidden in the vaccine, where the chips making people magnetic, it is the turn of the Bluetooth emissions to be the subject of a strong intox.
For more than a year, Internet users have been sharing videos en masse showing lists of Bluetooth addresses on cell phones, explaining that they correspond to chips camouflaged in our bodies following the injection of the vaccine against Covid-19. .
In early December, on a plane, a person showed scrolling Bluetooth addresses on his smartphone, explaining that it was the “Bluetooth of everyone who has been vaccinated and is on the plane” tells France24 in its section “The Observers”.
Another example in French Polynesia where a woman, seeing the Bluetooth addresses appear near a cemetery, concluded that these addresses corresponded to people vaccinated and buried.
These surreal stories are multiplying on the internet and generating millions of views. However, injecting a Bluetooth chip into a vaccine is just as impossible than injecting a 5G chip. And it is not about belief, but about technique.
A Bluetooth chip in vaccines is technically impossible
Injecting a Bluetooth chip with the vaccine is simply impossible. While the miniaturization of components has advanced at breakneck speed in recent decades, thehe size of a Bluetooth device remains far too large today to come out of a syringe. Especially since the Bluetooth chip is not the only component necessary for the emission of Bluetooth waves. For this to work you also need a battery and an antenna. “The whole thing is at least several millimeters in diameter if not a few centimeters in length” explains to France24 Olivier Ezratty, expert in digital technologies. And to assert:
It doesn’t fit a syringe needle at all, which for Covid-19 ranges from 0.5 to 0.8 mm in diameter.
Currently, there are many medical devices using Bluetooth technology offered in the context of certain pathologies. “There are blood glucose sensors for diabetics” explains Olivier Ezratty, but these are systems that make “the size of a one euro coin”.
On the other hand, there are many connected and miniaturized devices that can be injected into the human body. Corn these chips are much bigger than a needle. They actually take the form of microchips that insert under the skin but have nothing to do with any chip diluted in a vaccine. CQFD.
