A coronavirus screening test based on artificial intelligence (AI) is able to rule out a Covid-19 diagnosis within an hour, according to the scientists who developed the technology.
The test, which uses clinical information routinely available within the first hour of arriving at a hospital, was created by infectious disease and machine learning experts at the University of Oxford.
