According to a recent Medgadget article, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine developed a rapid COVID-19 breathalyzer test that could transform the way we test for the virus. The test requires individuals to breathe into a device, that can detect the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in as little as one minute. This technology could be invaluable for screening large groups of people before indoor events or in community clinics. The system's adaptability allows for potential use in detecting other viruses, providing a crucial tool for future outbreaks.
