Reliance Industries has sought special permission to fly an Israeli team of experts to India to train and install a rapid COVID-19 identification solution it acquired from an Israeli start-up for $15 million. The delegation from Breath of Health (BOH) has already received an emergency approval at Reliance's request given the spike in coronavirus-related cases in India and will be flying out soon. Israel has put a temporary ban on its citizens from flying to seven countries, including India, which have seen a surge in coronavirus cases.
The experts from the Israeli medical technology company will guide Reliance's team in India in operating the innovative system developed by it to identify coronavirus carriers and patients in the early stages of the disease by exhalation.
Reliance Industries is India’s largest private sector company. The company’s activities span hydrocarbon exploration and production, petroleum refining and marketing, petrochemicals, retail and 4G digital services.
