Coronavirus Helper — Positive App

Coronavirus Application

A social network app providing users with voluntary HELP platform, status live maps (cured/infected) and essential checklists

CoronavirusHelper is a mobile social app that brings volunteers offering help and the ones seeking help together. Through “zoning” people with limited possibilities can ask for help in a certain area, where volunteers and organisations see it in real time.

The application should first and foremost encourage and provide us with hope and security as well as assist everyone, that has contact with this pandemic disease.

Following features will be provided>>>

Share status anonymously in real time

I want to assist / help — In case you have defeated the virus, not in the risk group or in a volunteer program, you can offer your help to those, that can’t exit their home. This feature gives the areal overview of offered help in your radius

I need assistance / help — If you can’t exit your home but need assistance in purchasing groceries, getting medication or taking out you pet you can send this status to all users near by, that want and are able to help

In quarantine — This status shows how many people in the region are actually on quarantine

Symptoms suspected — Providing the medical services with information as well as neighbours in area around with awareness (this status can be shared with personal contacts in order for them to perform a test if contact occurred in past 20 days)

COVID-19 confirmed — Gives medical services a better overview where more activity should be performed. This also helps actively keep others safe by providing

them avoidance information (this status can be shared with personal contacts in order for them to perform a test if contact occurred in past 20 days)

COVID-19 defeated! I’m cured — Provides medical institutions with a possibility to contact the cured (only if allowance granted!) and with their help find an effective cure for this disease!
