I believe it is 1.6 microns in diameter.which is quite big really
Why can it not be detected in some sort of breathalyser.
I'm not a clever chap.
But if it spreads in our deoxginated breath why cant the clever people develop something???? |

I don't think a breathalyser would be any good. Many viruses/bacteria are in breath. I think test's work by seeing the immune systems reaction to a virus. In exhaled breath, there is still plenty of oxygen for anything that needs it. |

Most concise answer:
There's nothing you could make, that would be cheap, and still be able to differentiate it from any other virus, especially quickly enough to make it workable as a portable device.
Reliability
Cost
Feasability
All the main factors here.
Think of why we can't build a portable MRI machine to try to explain why we don't have hand sized brain scanners. |
