Project Details

Description
Smart technologies solutions to fight COVID19, from Epid HealthTech, Inc. USA The global coronavirus pandemic is affecting all of our families, businesses, communities, and the way we lead our lives. We're truly inspired by the selfless healthcare workers, epidemiologists, contact tracers, and caseworkers around the world, who are on the front lines working tirelessly to care for people in need. To support these efforts, Epid HealthTech, Inc. has teamed up with domain experts, epidemiologists (from WHO, CDC, UNICEF, and MIT), and rapidly developed essential technology solutions to fight COVID19. EpidTrace accelerates contact tracing for epidemic prevention and control. The tool seamlessly integrates workflows and disease prevention processes across different parts of the epidemic response into a single platform powered by cognitive technologies. EpidTrace empowers epidemiologists, surveillance officers, contact tracers and public health officials to be exponentially effective by putting the power of visual analytics, geo-tracking, in-app messaging, voice & video calls, mobile device management and more, in their fingertips. EpidSafe is a ‘Social Passport’ mobile app with a ‘Live Risk Score’. EpidSafe processes data from users and healthcare providers into a single secure platform to calculate the risk of infection and transmission. The data decays with time as it becomes less relevant and thus the Risk Score is dynamically recalculated as data is updated. With EpidSafe, employers now have the power to reduce the risk to their workforce, keep employees safe, and their operations running. Can you please watch videos (<2 minutes) and advise a time for a quick meeting, so we walk you through features & benefits and a live demo. Look forward to speak to you soon.
