#66 Fever Screening in Airports


Listen Later

As a small island trading nation, Britain risks killing its economy and losing millions of jobs, unless it can allow people to get back to work in as normal a way as possible. So said John Holland-Kaye, CEO of Heathrow Airport, who wants to see a more sophisticated way of opening our borders.

He was referring to the need to adapt to and live with Covid-19 for the foreseeable future. And part of the strategy being explored by airports, worksites and offices is elevated body temperature screening through the use of camera systems.

It is not a Covid detector, but it allows a large number of people to be screened with confidence for signs that they might be febrile.
