I’m guessing that covid detection will include all the known variants.

Even better would be some form of AI or algorithm that could work out a range of possible variants.

Don’t believe it.

On the other hand, cough evaluation could be an interesting app.
Using the microphone.
Diagnose what type of cough you have and measure how often you cough and whether correlated to nightime or air temperature.
To recommend mask, air conditioner temperature setting, medicine, visit to doctor, distinguish bronchitis from pneumonia etc.

our smartphone displayed messages confirming we tested negative for COVID-19 so they certainly have a role in COVID-19 non detection

not a stretch to believe they could be part of a detection system in a similar way

Oh, I see. In place of an armband or wristband saying “I’ve been vaccinated”.

What the point of the smart phone telling you your vaccinated when you know your vaccinated?

Anyway you left out

1 Phone scan of cruise ship wash basin with covid19 in the wash basin testing postive, shower, toilet for signs of covid19 and all the known Variants of SARS-CoV-2.

so reading the data you might want to step backwards and out of the room, other people after you might not bother to look at their phone at all.

you would scany bathroom sinks with no primer before the trap, the evaporation causes water to drop below the level permitting gases feeding back into the bathroom.

2 You could scan a public toilet for virus activity, a car, a lift, a room any high volume area you are in.

3 It could detect if another person has covid19.

4 Remote covid sensors could be placed around a quarantine unit with someone who is positive.

5 Other detectors could detect any new cases or movement of COVID clouds thorough out the quarantine centre.

6 there would be points.

In genetics, a missense mutation is a point mutation in which a single nucleotide change results in a codon that codes for a different amino acid. It is a type of nonsynonymous substitution. Wikipedia

so ventilation should be good and we won’t have to worry wait

So would COVID19 detectors be useful there or not.

no the emphasis on targeted technological solutions is perhaps suitable for mop up but with widespread generalised transmission the correct strategy involves broad, nonspecific intervention until the incidence comes down a bit (or rather, a lot)

In the meantime can you hear all those laughing COVID detectors, why are they laughing at us for?

Stop Laughing.

I’m setting my smartphone so if it detects any Covid variant the phone will sneeze and cough depending on how bad the COVID detection is.

It might make some security and police anxious.

It doesn’t say how it could detect Covid.

Are they meaning airborne, surface contamination, infected person also with a smart phone, known locations updated in real time and sent to you or a combination of some or all.

The 6G network might be the easy part and building sensors to fit into a phone at a reasonable cost the hard part

Did you know it usually takes months for evaporation to deplete a trap enough to expose sewer gas.

The sensor would have some map or blueprint of each virus variant and be looking for those.

It would be updating on a regular basis.

By what medical or chemical process is a smart phone going to detect Covid? or any other disease?

It is going to need a physical sample of blood, sweat or tears, or mucus to conduct some kind of testing on to determine if Covid is present or not. I can’t see Covid detection ever being a simple software process of running some code in an app.

How would it detect them though
Perhaps say if Covid left a sizeable bio signature that could be detected via light (whatever wave length that might be) it might work
Would it need to be close enough that you are risking infection

Yes. But it’s not common.

I’ve observed it in places that have been empty for many months. With the toilet seat cover left down, I have no idea how long it would take. Possibly a year or two.

No that was what I was thinking myself

specific COVID-19 detection aside we would suggest that risk can be fairly well measured by taking some surrogate measure, such as CO2, and this is something that is being done

not that it really changes anything though — if you want to reduce the risk, you get more outside airflow

simple solutions are elegant and effective

>>By what medical or chemical process is a smart phone going to detect Covid? or any other disease?

Im not sure yet, I’ll be looking around. but Im also sure companies will be secretive about it.

Might have to call in Agent 86 and Agent 99.

Wookie can write a report.

There is very, very little chance that GE will be able to get this to work in any reasonable fashion, and even if they did come up with something it would probably be near to useless in combating the disease; but lets face it, none of that matters – they’ve got a grant for the next 24 months so lets party!
