COVID-19 Case Investigation

该应用程序仅在索马里增强COVID-19的检测，测试和报告

The app is to enhance COVID-19 detection, testing and reporting in Somalia only. The App will be used by individual users authorized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) for data collection and reporting of suspected COVID-19 cases and contacts as well as tracking laboratory test result. The App is designed for the Community Health Workers, District Health Teams and Laboratory personnel to collect and manage data on suspected and confirmed COVID-19 cases and upload the data from the mobile device to a web portal for further analysis and reporting. The App is developed on the basis of Case Investigation Form for Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 (Version-006).

Access to App:

The App is intended for private users only (NIH authorized health workers in Somalia) who will have access to the app using a password protected credentials created from the Web Admin portal and supplied by the Web and App Administrators.

Contact Tracing:

As there is no self-registration in the App, the USERID and Password will be given by the Administrator of the entire system by the app user's official email. This unique id (USERID) will be pushed to the App. The USERID will thereafter be used to identify the app user in all subsequent App related transactions and will be associated with any data or information uploaded from the App to the Server.

The App collects App user's GPS location data and stores securely on the mobile device with the COVID-19 patient data which is collected by the App user. The GPS location data will be used later to generate a case concentration MAP to analyze the pandemic situation.
