The coronavirus pandemic is the thing that is both almost over and somehow worse than ever.

Even as vaccines are making everybody safe, it is clear that COVID-19 is a lot like

benefit in that it is never really going to be over, which is why a new breakthrough

in testing for COVID is getting a lot of buzz.

Dutch researchers are training bees to detect COVID-19 infections in samples,

and they say that it could cut the waiting time for test results from hours or days to down to

just seconds. Bees have an unusually keen sense of smell, and the bees indicate a positive test

result by extending their tongues to get a reward in the form of sugar water. It takes about a month

to train these bees. Researchers say that it could be used in parts of the world where there is

testing isn't available. Poor countries always get screwed, man. In America, what do they do?

They swab you with a Q-tip, huh? That's the test. But now in Africa, they're going to be like,

I mean, these poor bees, they already have so much on their plate. They pollinate our crops.

They make our honey. They teach our kids how to have sex with birds. Give them a break. I just hope

that this gets people over their vaccine hesitancy. Because now, if you don't want to get the vaccine,
