Inspiration
I'm an electronics and communication engineering undergrad and Khyati is doing her undergrad in the field of biotechnology. We want to stop this ongoing pandemic. So we developed this Android and IOS application using flutter.
What it does
Fight corona App has been developed to create awareness about the novel coronavirus among the people of all over the world.
Problem: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus.
Most people infected with the COVID-19 experience mild to serve respiratory illness. Older people and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness and even death.
At this time, there are no specific vaccines or treatments for COVID-19. However, many ongoing clinical trials are evaluating potential treatments.
Solution: The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is to be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease it causes and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by washing your hands or using an alcohol-based rub frequently and not touching your face.
This app provides basic alerts for the prevention of Coronavirus and the necessary information one needs to know about covid-19.
We take care of the correct information and updates through this app.
The app has the following main sections for citizens:
Online information : Contains daily update about No of cases, cases Recovered and no of Deaths in a particular country to make people aware of Corona disaster in their countries.
Set reminders: contain alarm setting for hand wash and mask change.
People ( specifically the elder once who are more prone to covid-19 ) usually forget to wash their hands or to change mask timely. This option will help them to set alarm according to their needs and to be safe.
FAQs: Contain general questions that one must know about covid-19.
Myths: contain myths about covid-19 prevention
People spread wrong preventive measures about this disease which is not technologically beneficial to fight the Coronavirus. Thus, this section contains some of the misinformation spreading across the world which need not follow.
Few features like corona update and vaccine R&D will be uploaded on the app soon.
Advisories and instructions will be updated from time to time via PUSH notification on the App.
This App will provide quick information and help to you. You should visit the nearby health center if you develop a novel coronavirus symptom.
Save you and your loved once.
How I built it
I built this using flutter and WHO's API. This application demands the user's location to assist them in show live corona stats.
Challenges I ran into
Developing this in 5 days wasn't easy, I coded day and night.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
People who are using are providing positive feedback, I am constantly updating this. Removing bugs and adding new features.
What I learned
I learned when the world is in need. Don't stop giving your best your contribution matters.
What's next for Fight Corona
One-touch 24*7 online assists all over the world, along with user profile, so that users can show their handwashing routine on social media and promote others to do so.
