Corona Virus New Research - Developing The Facemask Detect Corona Virus - Bundles Of Knowledge<br /><br />Researchers with Harvard and MIT are developing a face mask that can detect if the wearer is infected with coronavirus, media outlets report.<br /><br />When saliva comes into contact with the fabric, whether through coughing, sneezing or just talking, a special material lining the mask will turn fluorescent if coronavirus is present, according to Harvard’s Wyss Institute.<br /><br />If development is successful, the mask could be a powerful new tool against the virus, allowing for faster detection, and potentially greater accuracy, James Collins, an MIT professor of bioengineering involved with the project, told Business Insider.<br /><br />“As we open up our transit system, you could envision it being used in airports as we go through security, as we wait to get on a plane,” Collins said. “You or I could use it on the way to and from work. Hospitals could use it for patients as they come in or wait in the waiting room as a prescreen of who’s infected.”<br /><br />For More Informative & Knowledgeable Video Subscribe Your Youtube Channel & Like Our Facebook Page: Bundles of Knowledge<br />Links Below Here:<br />YOUTUBE<br />https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSL8vxHb-dmy3yIVWDtBTIA<br />FACEBOOK<br />https://www.facebook.com/bundlesofknowledge<br />DailyMotion<br />https://www.dailymotion.com/bundlesofknowledge
