Can Apple Watch Detect Coronavirus?

The Coronavirus is giving rise to fantastic stories, both for better and for worse, but what it has also given rise to is endless hoaxes, curiosities and medical news that we find hard to believe and that are shared on social networks without mercy. . Today we have here the latest implausible story surrounding that damn bug that has us locked up at home. According to some studies, the Apple Watch could be able to detect the Coronavirus. 

Is it possible that the smart watch of the Cupertino company serves to detect this infamous disease that has us all in suspense?

Stanford University has been the one that has put to work with such a curious experiment that it has not chosen for the test only the Apple Watch but has involved a greater number of wearables. In this case, the scientists believe that by combining the information obtained by the Electrocardiogram (ECG) of the Apple Watch Series 4 onwards and that of our respiration rate, an approximation can be made about whether or not we are suffering from the virus. Curious, although it is still hard for us to believe that this serves as a valid "test", and more considering the difficulties that the administration is having to buy them.

You can participate in this study of the Stanford University (LINK) voluntarily and help them collect as much data as possible, any help in trying to better understand the Coronavirus is little. In the meantime, we continue to recommend that you always contrast this type of information and do not assume that simply by wearing the Apple Watch on duty you will be able to identify whether or not you are suffering from the disease. From Actualidad iPhone We recommend following the measures recommended by your Governments and the World Health Organization.
