BREAKING! Healthcare Innovations: Northeastern University-Boston Develops Sensor That Can Detect SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Particles In The Air Source: Healthcare Innovations Jul 20, 2020 14 hours ago Healthcare Innovations: Researchers from Northeastern University-Boston have created a new sensor that is capable of detecting the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus particle in the air. The new sensor would be a major game changer in the management of the current COVID-19 pandemic. As businesses, schools and other organizations plan their strategies to reopen during the COVID-19 pandemic, testing people regularly for the coronavirus will be one of the key components in attempts to slow and control new waves of cases. |

Thanks, that was interesting, I wonder what it would look like in practice..... ....I can see working in an office on the 32nd floor and the message comes through the system "Lifts are stopped for decontamination due to high levels of Corona virus in the air". Do I stop for the night or risk knee injury (and heart attack) from going down so many stairs, and would the stair well be safe if the lift was not? .....Or more likely, the subway system would be shut down, so there is a long walk home. |

Triumverate of good news! UK and China are putting vaccines into stage 3 trials. I have little hope for the Chinese one, as it does not apparently work very well in the over 55s; it could ring-vaccinate though. The UK government has placed orders for tens of millions of doses of 3 vaccines in end-stage-trials. No guarantees on any of that, but it does indicate a level of optimism. Hazelpad's effective treatment - and now, this. Thanks AI! I am seeing a glimmer of light at the end of the covid tunnel. Approaching train, fire on track, or possibly, actually daylight? I might get to go Christmas shopping after all. 🤞 |
