Dogs trained to diagnose corona, more than 4.5 million victims

British researchers will train Labrador and Cocker Spaniel dogs to see if they can detect coronavirus disease before symptoms appear.
According to the Washington Post, the British government has provided پانچ 500,000 to researchers for the project. The study will be conducted by researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the University of Durham.

The study is being conducted in collaboration with an organization called Medical Detection Dogs, which has previously trained dogs to detect cancer, schizophrenia and malaria.

Researchers will test six such dogs to diagnose coronavirus and have already learned to diagnose cancer. The dogs will be given samples of Corona patients and healthy people being treated in London hospitals.

The UK's Department for Health and Social Care said on Saturday that if the sniffer dogs were successfully trained, they would be able to diagnose code 19 quickly and without any tests.
Researcher James Logan, who led the project, said in a statement: Respiratory disease can change body odor, which gives us hope that dogs can detect the corona virus.

If this experiment is successful, it will revolutionize the diagnosis of the virus and make it easier to screen large numbers of people, he said
On the other hand, according to Johns Hopkins University in the United States, the number of people infected with the corona virus worldwide has exceeded 4.5 million, while the death toll has exceeded 390,000.

More than 87,000 people have died in the United States, the world's worst-hit country, and about 1.5 million have been affected.
The United Kingdom has the second highest number of deaths after the United States at 34,546, with more than 241,000 infected.
The death toll in Italy was 31,610, in France 27,532, in Spain 27,563, in Belgium 9,000 and in Germany 7,931.
