Singapore firm invents Covid-19 breathalyser with results in seconds | Malay Mail

Friday, 30 Oct 2020 09:18 AM MYT

SINGAPORE, Oct 30 — A company in Singapore has developed a breathalyser test for the new coronavirus which it says will enable people to know whether they are infected in under a minute. Countries worldwide are looking to develop alternative tests to the Polymerase Chain Reaction nasal swab, which is invasive and in short supply in some places where demand has outstripped manufacturers' production capacity.

At US$20 , Breathonix says its test would be 70 per cent cheaper than PCR tests, although infected patients would likely still need the more sensitive PCR tests to confirm the diagnosis.

fahmi_fadzil Should be given free for the people.... This is what I called money making

ileneax wait till that guy finds out its rectal

In Malaysia we kentut saja dah tahu Covid 🤡sebab tu mentri tak perlu mask

Seen one from Finland

Innovative & creative !!!

Please help your neighbours then Singapore, especially Sabah. They need to be quickly diagnosed. They are turning up in hospitals dead.

In America, they just shove cotton swaps up your nose and into your brain.

Imagine the gun pulled an uno reverse card

fahmi_fadzil While in Malaysia, politicians fighting among themselves. Khairykj DrAdhamBaba why are we still left behind? DrNorainiAhmad we have great Universities yet still fighting to appoint VCs allign to the government. Those not will be sidelined. Is this future of nation we want?

... 'At US$20 (RM83), Breathonix says its test would be 70 per cent cheaper than PCR tests, although infected patients would likely still need the more sensitive PCR tests to confirm the diagnosis.'.. 🤔🤔🤔

Always follow SOP , Malaysia no need to purchase this item. exhale our breath the viruses might fly to the machine surface too unless keep disinfectant each time after test.

Great!

Jangan lah beli ni semua. No need to make others richer when Malaysians need all the money they can get due to job losses & businesses going bankrupt. More cases longer lockdowns. 99% of Covid-19 cases recover anyway.
