COVID-19 infected people, detected by a dog at Sibiu Airport

Articol de Radiojurnal, 09 August 2021, 02:12

A dog specially trained to detect people infected with the new coronavirus at Sibiu Airport reported two nights ago three people in this situation. These were passengers of the Madrid - Sibiu flight.

The first person detected with the new coronavirus had a complete vaccination schedule, the second one had a negative COVID test, and the third showed evidence that he had recently had the virus.

In total, of the 155 passengers in the flight, 22 were placed in quarantine and one in solitary confinement.

In the middle of last month, the authorities approved the development of a pilot project at Sibiu Airport regarding the detection of people infected with SARS-CoV-2 with the help of specially trained K9 units.
