A hospital in the southern French city of Lyon is testing patients with a new breathalyzer-style machine that allows them to breathe into a tube and get their coronavirus test results in a matter of seconds.

The machine is entering a second trial phase after three months of use on dozens of people, among whom about 20 had the virus and the others did not. Unlike the uncomfortable standard PCR (polymerase chain reaction) tests, it is not invasive and provides an immediate result.
