NASCAR Deploying COVID-Detecting Dogs at Atlanta Motor Speedway
NASCAR announced the use of COVID-detecting dogs at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, claiming the animals are as effective as PCR tests. The 360 K9 group and Bio Detection K9 are providing the specialized animals, which have previously been used by the USDA to detect plant viruses. Concerns are raised regarding the potential for dog trainers to use secret signals to trigger false alerts, similar to drug-detecting dog protocols.
