Dogs are truly man’s best friend! Today more so than ever before. Researchers are in the process of training dogs to detect the Coronavirus responsible for today’s worldwide pandemic.
Dogs Detecting
Malaria was once detected by the smart canine nose several years ago. At the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, scientists are working on teaching dogs to recognize the odor of human perspiration in individuals that are COVID-19 carriers.
Human sweat is the key! Dogs will simply be taught to literally sniff out the asymptomatic human carriers so eventually, we can all return to a safe environment. The project is being financed through Crowdfunding.
