Abstract
A pathogen detection apparatus includes an obtainer that measures a body temperature of a subject and outputs information indicating the body temperature, a collector that performs a pathogen collection operation for collecting a pathogen carried by the subject or a pathogen in air around the subject, a detector that performs a pathogen detection operation for detecting the pathogen collected by the collector, a notifier that provides a notification indicating a detection result obtained by the detector, and a controller. In a case where the body temperature output by the obtainer is higher than a predetermined threshold value and the detection result obtained by the detector is negative, the controller controls the detector to perform another pathogen detection operation for detecting a pathogen.
