Service dogs will be used to detect people infected with COVID-19 in Poland, the local media reports.

"For the first time in Poland, hunting dogs will undergo an 8-week course with their trainers to identify patients with COVID-19 at airports," the statement said.

The first group includes Labradors and one English Cocker Spaniel.
