From day-to-day/hourly “contact tracking” of every meeting, remote quarantine management, supply of potable drinking water, live fitness classes enabled on mobiles, to reduction of minimum fare on shared mobility; start-ups are contributing in every little way to keep people safe from Covid-19.

“The updated feature will help in social distancing as recommended by the World Health Organization, as anyone can log their body temperature, heart rate, weight, blood sugar and other vitals; symptoms like cough, cold, difficulty in breathing; food and activity log with location; log time spent with people at various occasions, including drivers of Uber, Ola with driver details, e-commerce and food delivery services like Amazon, Flipkart, Swiggy and Zomato with their names, phone numbers and even their photographs. In case of a positive detection, users can immediately backtrack every movement and individuals that one has come in contact with in the last few days, ensuring prevention and quick detection of virus carriers simultaneously managing remote quarantine management” Vishal Gondal, founder CEO, GOQii, told BusinessLine.
