Mobile Health Monitoring and Treatment System for COVID-19 Symptoms Identification

Due to the current issue of COVID-19 virus, it is unadvisable to consult with a doctor at medical facilities such as clinics and hospitals unless the situation is really dire. This is because medical facilities are the most likely environment to be contracted with the virus. Hence, people are forced to undertake drastic measures by turning to the internet for solutions regarding their situation. People often misdiagnose themselves as they tend to opt for the dangerous and extreme results due to fear and paranoia. The purpose of this study is to develop a friendly mobile application which can help the user to identify their health status based on the inputs that they have keyed in such as symptoms, days passed with the symptoms, etc. Using the testimony given by the user, the system will then announce if they are safe from the COVID-19 virus or not. Additionally, it will also provide some effective medical advices in tackling the issue at hand. With the aid of this application, users would not need to consult with doctors to help diagnose themselves in order to determine the probability of being infected, and could quickly pop in to the pharmacy and make a quick purchase of medicine(s) if their current health condition is not dire. Though, it is still recommended for citizens to do a check-up at the medical facilities if the disease afflicted is severe. Besides, this mobile application would be accessible at all times as it does not require the connectivity to the internet to function. Therefore, enabling the user in avoiding the worst-case scenario from unprofessional self-diagnostic.
