A Chinese university has announced a coronavirus detection kit that can identify infections of the deadly illness in just 15 minutes, according to a report.

A fast test card included in the kit can detect the virus, known as COVD-19, in only 15 minutes, allowing fast on-site screening of people suspected of having the illness, Xinhua reported, citing a statement by the university. As of Monday morning, the virus has killed more than 1,700 people – the vast majority in China’s Hubei province — and infected more than 71,000 around the world.
