Corona virus: corona test results will come in twelve minutes

Scotland Health Services has tied up with a company called Lumiradex, after which it will now be able to use special testing kits in which the corona virus test results will be out in minutes.

For this, the government will spend £ 67 million on 300 rapid testing machines and five lakh tests.

Under this agreement, Lumiradex, a health equipment manufacturer, will make a special testing strip at its factory in Sterling.

The machines used in this corona test can be easily transported from one place to another and can be used in small clinics and mobile hospitals.

The US Federal Drug Administration recognizes the testing of Covid-19 disease-causing SARS-CoV-2 virus and is currently in the final stages for Scotland and Europe.

"Under the agreement with Lumiradex, the company will provide a 12-minute corona testing device for our healthcare agency," says Evan McKee, minister in the Scottish Government. This is important in the war against the virus.

"In this test, the testing device will use a special type of strip which will be made in Scotland itself." This will create employment opportunities for the people here and at the same time our industry will also be strengthened.''

In this test, a swab taken from the nose will be tested for the Kovid-19 antigen protein. The result of the test will come in twelve minutes.

It is believed that the result will be quicker than other rapid antigens. These testing devices will be connected to the cloud system so that health officials can get information about the virus expansion quickly.

Ron Zwenziger, chief executive of Lumiradex, stated that "not only will the results of this test come quickly but the results will be accurate and on the basis of this, doctors can start treating the patient early." Corona vaccine may be less effective on obese people: research

Corona vaccine may be less effective on obese people: research

According to a study, the risk of getting hospitalized for treatment in case of corona infection is higher for those who are obese. They have this risk twice as much as normal people.

A team from the University of North Carolina has studied data on 75 research conducted on nearly four million people worldwide.

American researchers say obesity increases the risk of diabetes and high blood pressure. If the immune system is weak, an infected person can become seriously ill.

It is also feared that the potential vaccine may also be less effective on obese people. This is because even the flu vaccine does not work properly on people with BMI greater than 30.

Ozone is effective in killing the corona virus: research

Japanese researchers say that with the help of ozone, the corona virus can be eradicated and hospitals can be made safe in this way.

According to the news agency Reuters, Japan's Fujita Health University has reported that they have proved that the virus can be destroyed by low-density ozone gas (0.05 to 0.1 ppm).

Researchers say this level of low-density ozone is safe for humans.
