Pinoy-made app TradeSocialPH helps in social distancing

Help prevent COVID-19 with TradeSocialPH

The mobile app is designed and developed to support existing national efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19 via social distancing. TradeSocialPH uses Bluetooth signals to determine and estimate the number of people within 2 to 5 meters from you.

Your privacy is safe with the app as it does not collect any data from you such as location, phone numbers, and other information. It does not store any data about phones near you as well. In addition, it does not need an internet connection as well as GPS to work. All it needs is Bluetooth and you are good to go. 

The next step for the app is an official way of Contact Tracing to trace people possibly exposed to the COVID-19. However,  this will need to be collaborated with the health department to make it official and to make data collection legitimate.

You can download the app for FREE on Google Play Store for Android. It is coming to iOS devices soon as well.

What do you guys think? Keep safe everyone!

Mayor Benjamin Magalong speaks with DZMM Teleradyo's Gerry Baja about COVID-19 screening alternatives such as Huawei's AI-powered COVID-19 CT scan that you can read more about at this link.

It was developed by the Huazon University of Science and Technology and by Lanwon Technology with Huawei Cloud developed AI-assisted quantitative medical imaging analysis service specifically for COVID-19 that offers 98 percent accuracy with results released in just 2 minutes.

Three people who were under investigation for possible COVID-19 infection participated in the initial testing with Huawei's diagnostic tool. The three tested negative from Huawei's tool and are scheduled to be validated by the tests kit from the Department of Health. These tests kit reveal the result 4-6 days after which takes too long compared to Huawei's solution.

Currently, Baguio has one confirmed case from a 55-year old woman with five others who tested "highly probable" from Huawei's COVID-19 CT scan that is currently waiting for the Department of Health's confirmatory test.

Your startup’s culture should revolve around quality-focused product development

Launching a high-quality product that clients would love has never been more important. When it comes to quality assurance, tech companies can no longer rely solely on QA teams to simply cover the maximum percentage of scenarios.  Previously, quality was thought of something that QA engineers would take care of. Quality and user focus didn’t used to be a shared responsibility.
