Detecting COVID Device

[Darts]

Where are we on developing a device to detect the virus in the air and/or on your hands, testicles, face, etc?

Maybe something like the temperature gun. Point it at at something and a blue light pops up.

I think they are better off with the rapid testing techniques.

By the time the machine picks it up it is too late. This is more of a reactive approach. Rapid tests are proactive. Also what would happen if they identified the individual as infected. The squad team, police, shut everything off. It might be tricky to do this. Then what do you do identify all people in that room that train etc. Maybe good for certain specific cases but I don’t see it being used in public for a while.

They are saying with Biden they will promote these rapid tests for greater use.

Since the virus can live on surfaces, I was wondering when we will have a device that can tell if that can of soup or newspaper you brought home has the virus.

Based on lack of response, it appears there is no device that can tell you if there is the virus on that toilet seat (I try to never use public toilets) or on that doorknob or on that ATM screen or on that cashier belt.
