The Prime Minister has delayed the announcement for social distancing relaxations after a study found that dogs can sniff out Covid. “The government is now not expected to give the all-clear to the fourth and final step in England’s relaxation of lockdown rules until June 14 – a week ahead of the earliest date for the removal of restrictions on 21 June,” The Indpedented reported. This comes after a study found that specially trained dogs can sniff up Coronavirus with up to 94 per cent accuracy. The findings, which have not yet been peer-reviewed, are based on six dogs who tested more than 3,500 odour samples donated by the public and NHS staff.
