The first and most critical response to curbing the spread of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is to deploy effective techniques to test potentially infected patients, isolate them and commence immediate treatment. However, several test kits currently in use are slow and in a shortage of supply. This paper presents techniques for diagnosing COVID-19 from chest X-ray (CXR) and address problems associated with training deep models with less voluminous datasets and class imbalance as obtained in most available CXR datasets on COVID-19. We used the discriminative fine-tuning approach, which dynamically assigns different learning rates to each layer of the network. The learning rate is set using the cyclical learning rate policy that changes per iteration. This flexibility ensured rapid convergence and avoided being stuck in saddle point plateau. In addition, we addressed the high computational demand of deep models by implementing our algorithm using the memory- and computational-efficient mixed-precision training. Despite the availability of scanty datasets, our model achieved high performance and generalisation. A Validation accuracy of 96.83%, sensitivity and specificity of 96.26% and 95.54% were obtained, respectively. When tested on an entirely new dataset, the model achieves 97% accuracy without further training. Lastly, we presented a visual interpretation of the model's output to prove that the model can aid radiologists in rapidly screening for the symptoms of COVID-19.
