COVID - How to protect ourselves

[Kurt]

This could really be a game changer...

That's interesting. I wasn't aware that they were training dogs to detect cancers.

I always thought that dogs having the ability to identify something wrong was mostly because they know their human so well that they just recognize a change in that human's body.

Yeah dogs can do all sorts of detection. Some can detect when a person's blood sugar is getting too high and warn people with epilepsy when they're going to have a seizure.

Rats often have similar sense of smell abilities and are cheaper to keep. But they creep too many people out.

In theory you could have dogs and/or rats sniff everyone that enters a building and have an accurate test for COVID instantly. If you have COVID you can't enter. I think the training time would be the biggest obstacle if they can do it.
