Wonder if there have been any scientific studies of the accuracy of Covid sniffing dogs when even the PCR test is inaccurate?
From Nature:
"...most of these findings have not yet been peer reviewed or published, making it hard for the wider scientific community to evaluate the claims..."

So, how do they peer review?   Do they take the samples to the local dog pound and get a consensus from the other dogs?????

That was the soft launch.

 

This is the real launch.

 

In a few weeks the mobile lab will be sold at some market and the dogs, well off to Vietnam.

 

The cycle of life in Thailand for "projects".

Interesting to note that of all the word's many, many countries who has serious Covid problems Thailand is the one to train Covid's sniffing dogs...

Not only Thailand. I understand that Finland, Dubai are using dogs too. Other countries also work on it.
