No joke.

#Iran—Senior IRGC officials say their "scientists" have invented a new remote device that uses a "magnetic field" with a "bipolar virus inside" that can detect the novel #coronavirus "within 100 meters" & has "+80% accuracy."

Me: (speechless)...
There's more...

IRGC official claims:
-No other device like this in the world
-Completely made inside Iran
-We can even increase the speed & range, up to 500 meters
-Can detect virus from inside a moving vehicle

Ridiculed in practice:

The "expert" places the "receiver" in different positions & the "device antenna" fails to move... even once.

One lady is heard saying, "It's all propaganda!"

This new "coronavirus detection device" may actually be the revival of the fake "magic wand" bomb detector from back in 2013 that caused havoc in Iraq.
"The Iraqis spent £53m ($85m) on the devices at around £5,000 ($8,034) a time. Some sold for as much as £25,000 ($40,178)."

And it is quite interesting that the same device being "unveiled" today as a "new, scientific, technological & unique breakthrough" was used by #Iran's regime to "detect smuggled fuel."
