Locate the COVID-19 “simply” upon hearing the voice of the patient by phone, through the comparison and scientific analysis of 6370 parameters that allow knowing both the existence of the disease and its level of severity. It seems like a futuristic hypothesis, but it is what the professor says he can do John Wise, researcher and professor at the Tor Vergata Polyclinic in Rome who, as a guest of “Italy Yes“, the Rai1 container made by Marco Liorni, spoke about his studies on the voice test to detect the possible presence, in a patient, of Covid-19.

It is a test that has already been successfully tested for other diseases, particularly important in the case of the SARS-Cov-2 virus, because it is capable of detecting its presence in patients with symptoms very similar to those of normal seasonal flu and other infections. respiratory. “Doctors assign patients a code that we work on,” explained Professor Saggio. We do not know the first and last names of the patients. We work only on the voice: words and phrases, but also coughing and breathing. We subjected 150 patients to the test, thanks to which we discovered the presence of Coronavirus in subjects whose positivity was not even detected by the swab. It occurred in two cases, whose positivity was later confirmed by the serological test.
In this regard, Professor Marco Benazzo, director of the San Matteo Polyclinic in Pavia, who participated in the experimentation carried out in Tor Vergata, declared: “We were very surprised by the precision of this diagnostic test.” Later, Professor Cauda took the floor and stressed: “The test opens up important perspectives but only affects people with symptoms, who have a voice disorder.”
Then, the engineer Saggio subjected Georgia Luzi, Marco Liorni’s guest present at the studio, to a live simulation. “The result is negative,” he announced minutes later, explaining how to interpret the graph processed on the PC by the system in the voice of Georgia Luzi. “There is a scientific basis that this system works,” she later confirmed. The engineer highlighted that the results of the test of the voice test for the detection of the SARS-Cov-2 virus will be published shortly in a specialized and internationally recognized journal. “I am particularly happy to be back in Italy Si with tangible results in the research we have carried out on the Coronavirus,” he also stated, thanking Marco Liorni for the guest.
