VIRUS: Use universal testing

| March 27, 2020 1:00 AM

I cannot understand why our government is not using existing technology to detect the airborne coronavirus. I work for a subcontractor for the Department of Homeland Security that had a program called Biowatch. Essentially, they had these devices that could detect anthrax in the air. So why can’t we change the technology to detect COVID-19? Just a thought.
