Are temperature checks using a no-touch infrared forehead thermometer one of the best ways to help minimize the spread of the coronavirus? Although body temperature checks may not be all that ...

The authors reviewed 30 studies from 15 countries and concluded that handheld infrared thermometers were reasonably accurate and can safely be used for screening.

Infrared thermometers work by focusing the heat — infrared light — emitted from your skin onto a sensor. So your body is actually beaming infrared rays into the thermometer and not the other ...

So let’s be clear here: Infrared thermometers won’t blind you, won’t damage your neurons nor affect your meditation. Read this article in Spanish at Univision.

Experts describe why temperature screening -- primarily done with a non-contact infrared thermometer (NCIT) -- doesn't work as an effective strategy for stemming the spread of COVID-19.

But does this really hold true? Infrared and contactless thermometer guns work by using radiation but don't necessarily send them inside the body and hence, don't necessarily affect you.
