This is great. 17 people where just put in islation in Indonesia waiting for test results after another H5N1 suspected outbreak. Sadly H5N1 or bird flu continues to spread like across the world like a bad weed no one can stop.
Quick detection of virus is good.
How accurate is the test?
How infected, i.e. how much of the virus, must the person have? Recently infected or after 24 hours when the virus takes hold or 36 hours when they start shedding the virus to others?
Because it works on reflected light can surfaces be swabbed and tested?
