- Today (April 10), the Philippines launched an online and mobile platform that can help the government track people exhibiting symptoms of the coronavirus disease and conduct more efficient contact tracing. Users will be asked during the online registration process if they manifest COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, cough, fatigue, muscle pain, runny nose, sore throat, shortness of breath and diarrhea. The platform will then generate a result indicating mild, moderate or severe depending on the number of symptoms the user is experiencing. The data will be forwarded to a “heat map” in the admin dashboard of StaySafe.ph, which will then show the areas and the number of people showing symptoms of the highly-contagious illness. The developer pointed out that users do not have to disclose sensitive information such as birthdate when registering in the platform.
