Italian dogs training to sniff out Covid-19

It was Harlock’s first day at coronavirus training school and she already showed promise.
The one-year-old German Shepherd’s task on the morning of March 31 was simply to place her slightly wet nose on a black tube.
“Sniff,” encouraged her trainer, Massimiliano Macera, who was quick to reward his furry student with treats whenever nose met tube.
“She’s already got it!” he added, smiling at his protege, part of a team of dogs learning how to sniff out Covid-19.
