Indian government app for fight against coronavirus

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is affecting virtually every country on the planet to a greater or lesser extent, even leading to the collapse of healthcare systems in some cases. Many governments have set up mechanisms to contain the virus. This mobile technology should also offer assistance.

A Government of India app for self-diagnosis

Corona Kavach is an app developed by the government of the Asian country that provides the user with the necessary tools to carry out a self-diagnosis based on the symptoms. The app shows you whether you suffer from any symptoms that can be traced back to this disease. You can then report this to the health authorities. These, in turn, provide useful information while also being able to better plan the patient's treatment and prevent them from moving and spreading the virus.

Thanks to the fact that today practically every one of us has a smartphone in our pocket, mobile technology is a crucial aid in the detection and control of people infected with the coronavirus. That makes a big difference compared to previous global pandemics.

Requirements and further information:

• Minimum operating system requirements: Android 5.0.
