Free app for Covid-19 self-care soon

25 Aug 2021

Dr. Sudarshini helming development BY Dinitha Rathnayake A free self care mobile application (app) is to be introduced soon by the Primary Health Care, Epidemics, and Covid-19 Disease Control State Ministry. The State Ministry said that this app would especially target Covid-19 patients; however, those who are suffering from other illnesses would also be able to get support from this app. This app would contain relevant information which would be linked to the Health Ministry, and those who seek help would be guided through a proper system. After entering one’s information, this app would also assist in the decision of whether to admit the patient or consult a doctor, according to the situation they are in. The app is in its final stage of design where the experts are assessing the bandwidth and host-related details. Meanwhile, the Primary Health Care, Epidemics, and Covid-19 Disease Control State Minister Dr. Sudarshini Fernandopulle decided to have a list of hospitals that provide Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) and publish it on a common platform where people would be aware of the place they should attend to get such a test. According to the State Minister, it is important to have such a list since most of the people are not aware of it. “Most of the people are clueless about the nearest hospitals which provide RATs and on what to do next.” Attention was also drawn to formulate a special programme to educate those who are currently at home as well as those who are infected with Covid-19 and those who are in self-quarantine, about the medical advice and procedures to be followed. It was proposed to raise further awareness of the symptoms of the Covid-19 infection as well as to prepare and distribute a series of medical instructions to those who are suspected to be infected, those who have already been diagnosed with the disease, and close associates of patients. It will also provide information on telephone numbers for medical advice and emergency hospitalisation, as well as on the steps to be taken at home.
