“Autotest” added to CoronavirusUy application

As from today, a new version of the app will be available that will allow to fill out a form so that the patient knows “automatically” the steps to follow, whether or not to see a doctor or if a coronavirus test should be made.

The app has 200,000 downloads, 150 people downloaded the form and most of the app recommended isolation. "Only 750 people were the ones with the highest priority, with symptoms or any health risk," said Nicolás Jodal, CEO of GeneXus, the company in charge of development. In a next stage, they seek doctors to attend people through the application in order to decongest the healthcare centers.
