Monash University (Australia) have developed a 20 minute blood test for isolating Covid-19 in red blood cells

Gabriella Good Health and Well-being

Researchers at Monash University have devised a simple blood test which "looks for agglutination, or a clustering of red blood cells, that the coronavirus causes". According to the researchers, the test is able to show whether an infection is recent.

In terms of progression, "a patent for the innovation has been filed and the researchers are seeking commercial and government support to scale up production". Despite its novelty, this development shows great promise! Well done to the researchers who are aiming to achieve SDG 3!
