Indonesian researchers have invented a tool to detect COVID-19 infection through a patient s breath.
The tool, called GeNose C19, had received a distribution permit from Indonesia’s Health Ministry on Dec. 24, and will soon be mass-produced, said Research and Technology Minister Bambang Brodjonegoro. We are going to boost the device for being publicly used so that economic activities could run smoothly, while also preventing potential transmission of the virus, Bambang asserted in a virtual news conference Monday.
A research team at Gadjah Mada University has been developing the GeNose C19 for over the past nine months, the minister added.
