## COVID sniffing dogs ##

Dogs are parts of the pilot program that uses dogs as a quick screen for COVID positive people at Miami International Airport.

When the trained dogs detect an olfactory signal of the corona virus, they sit.The detection rate of these dogs is more than 98%.

Training dogs to detect a specific odor starts by making them grasp that their job is to detect one odor among many.

COVID positive people produce certain chemicals that help them to fight with the virus every time they exhale.

To train the COVID sniffing dogs, the researchers first aquired mask samples from people hospitalized with COVID and people who didn't have the disease.

Researchers then trained the dogs to detect the chemicals released by COVID positive patients after destroying every trace of the virus by UV light so that the dogs don't get infected.

Nowadays, dogs can identify seizure, diabetes and ovarian cancer in addition to COVID-19.
