It is very interesting, although the applicability of this particular study to an airport is a bit dubious imo. I'm guessing this airport pilot is testing just that!

The dogs could detect positives with reasonable sensitivity, but they also threw up a fairly large number of false positives which I think could become a nightmare in a busy airport, particularly if every positive has to be tested and self-isolate

Also they used saliva and nasopharyngeal swabs taken from hospitalized COVID-19 patients as the training tool, which might not correlate well with people walking through an airport
