The complex task of man will now be given to the dog. That is to detect coronavirus. That’s what a group of experts in the UK thinks. So far various offenders have been identified using the dog’s keen aroma. This time, the smell of this animal will be used to detect corona.

Tedros Adhanam Gabriasus, the director general of the World Health Organisation, sent a message to all countries in the middle of last month to stop the spread of coronavirus. That’s there are no other way but to test.

But due to the huge pressure of the patient, insect crisis and many other reasons, the issue of testing has become difficult for many countries. A team of UK experts is working on a possible way to curb the epidemic by quickly identifying corona patients. They want to use trained dogs to detect corona.

Claire Guest, founder of the Medical Detection Dogs organisation in London, said people from all over the world will come to the UK. They may be suffering from coronas. They may have corona in their body without symptoms. Specially trained dogs will smell the smell of every passenger at the airport. It only takes zero point five seconds to do this. The dog will be able to quickly identify which person needs more coronary examination and who needs to go into car isolation. Thus, dogs will cooperate to prevent the spread of coronas in the UK.

The Good News Network recently reported that dogs are going to join the fight against coronavirus. To this end, a UK medical charity is going to train specialized dogs. Dogs will be trained to detect coronavirus (Covid-19) by smell.

The UK-based charity is called ‘Medical Detection Dogs’. The BBC says the organization has already succeeded in training dogs to detect malaria, cancer and Parkinson’s disease. Now they are going to train the dog to detect corona.

Medical Detection Dogs, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and the University of Durham will work together to identify dogs using corona. They are going to start a trial in this regard. After the training, the experts will test whether the dog can identify the corona.

Medical Detection Dogs chief and behavioural psychologist. Claire Guest said there is no reason why coronavirus-trained special dogs cannot be identified.

Dr. “We’re pretty sure the dog will be able to identify Covid-19,” said Claire Guest.

Concerned experts say that if the research is successful, it will be possible to identify Covid-19 quickly and effectively.

Experts claim that all diseases and viruses have their own smell. Dogs should first be allowed to sniff the body smell of a patient undergoing treatment at a coronavirus hospital. Then try to identify the patients with them in different areas. Earlier, trained dogs from London’s association identified malaria, cancer, Parkinson’s and bacterial infection by drying out the smell of cows or smelling of samples taken from their bodies. Britain wants to use the dog’s sense of smell to judge the smell of the disease.

So far in the world, the number of Corona victims is around 2.5 million. More than 1 lakh 75 thousand died.
