Man's best friend might be able to help with C19 09:37 - Sep 27 with 407 viewsStokieBlue

I know dogs have been used to detect other diseases but it seems they can also be trained to detect C19 at a fairly reliable rate:

Usual caveat that the study is yet to be peer reviewed.

That Guardian article shows 987,419 worldwide deaths and a daily death count of 5,244.
Sometime next week the headlines will be "In excess of 1million deaths worldwide".
Sobering thought.

Indeed.

Although in reality it's probably already far in excess of 1m deaths. The "official" figures from many places like Mexico and India are probably miles off and every country has different reporting criteria.

For instance, the excess deaths in Mexico are about 40,000 higher than what they say C19 has caused but they offer no alternative for those deaths.

I doubt she licked your screen.
She licked her balls, didn't she?
