The app asks you several questions including symptoms, travel history, and potential contacts. Besides recommendations for action, rel...evant contacts, and structured results, the purpose of the app is to optimize patient flow into testing sites, ambulances, and clinics. Please note that this app does not provide diagnostic services.
In this way, the CovApp can help you to better assess your medical condition, provide recommendations regarding doctor’s visits or Coronavirus testing, and summarize relevant medical information for future doctor’s consultation.
