Helsinki Airport welcomed 'coronavirus-sniffing dogs' as part of a pilot program this week meant to 'speed up the process of identifying those infected with COVID-19.'
Experts are training dogs to sniff out coronavirus in sick people before they enter large gatherings and airports. ABC News' Will Ganss reports they could be ready as early as July.
Trainer Susanna Paavilainen is seen with Kossi and Miina, sniffer dogs being trained to detect COVID-19 from the arriving passengers' samples, at Helsinki Airport in Vantaa, Finland, Sept. 22, 2020. They will be prompted to swipe their skin with a wipe and drop it into a cup, which is then given to the dog to smell.
