Diagnostic Tool for Coronavirus Being Developed by University of Warwick

Researchers at the University of Warwick are developing a rapid COVID-19 diagnostic tool that recognises sugar (glycans) present on the whole virus, instead of interacting with protein components of the virus. This test is like a home pregnancy test with immediate results. The test would greatly reduce the time taken to detect the presence of the virus in a patients body and help bring back some normalcy to life.
