CovApp

😷 Solution for assessing the risk of contagious viral infections (COVID-19)

CovApp can help users to assess their medical condition better, provide recommendations regarding doctor’s visits or coronavirus testing by answering a few questions.

Additionally, every filled out questionnaire summarizes relevant medical information for future doctor’s consultation in the form of a summary page, printout or a QR code. Institutions with the technical setup can scan the provided QR code and retrieve the patient information quickly and without any physical contact.

By implementing the CovApp, any medical institution can reduce the number of new incoming patients, avoid physical contact and speed up the patient registration process.

---

This repository holds a white-labeled version of the original application, free to use licensed under MIT License. Application logic, print functionality and QR code generation are still provided.

The application and underlying questionnaire logic are versioned and future updates will be provided.

⚠️ Any institution/doctor’s office is free to implement CovApp on their domains – the medical responsibility and legal liability lie with the implementing institution.

⚠️ This application is only meant to be set up by software developers. Unfortunately, we can't provide a non-technical solution now.

It is based on a JavaScript software stack and uses the following technologies:

• Stencil
• TypeScript
• WebComponents
