Description"Researchers are turning to wearable technologies such as Fitbits and Apple Watches in a new bid to tackle coronavirus, using them to gather large volumes of real-time patient data to track the course of the disease.
Wearable systems work by monitoring "biomarkers" - measures such as heart rate or skin temperature - which can indicate the presence of the virus, even before symptoms are felt."
