    Abstract: Facemasks with an integrated virus detection system are described. The virus detection system is embedded in or on a facemask worn by an individual susceptible to a viral infection. The individual wears a facemask for protective purposes during work or leisure. If the individual develops a viral infection and begins discharging viral particles from mouth and/or nose, the virus detection system embedded in the facemask retains the virus particles. The virus particles are detected in an immunoassay. The virus particles in the virus detection system embedded in the facemask are detected by avian antibodies. The virus detection system in the facemask is configured to detect one or more viruses, for example, SARS-CoV-2.
