Using African SMS and WhatsApp solutions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic
Sila Health connects users to trained healthcare professionals through the use of popular chat platforms such as Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and SMS.
To reduce the burden on our volunteer network, we use artificial intelligence to provide intermediate access to basic healthcare.
Our platform readily assists decision makers to identify methods of advancing healthcare by leveraging comprehensive datasets. Sila Health grants decision makers access to real-time data that informs critical insights into prominent disease outbreaks in hard-to-reach areas.
For this reason, our toolkit is an essential addition to every local government response.
Local governments can share critical updates on the pandemic to residents through SMS, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger
Our platform helps identify people who may have coronavirus symptoms in order to keep low-risk patients from clogging up hospitals.
Users can take a test to assess their symptoms through our World Health Organisation symptom checker in their own language on any mobile phone
We collect geographic and human network information for cases identified as potential positives to assist with contact tracing in remote and/or densely populated areas.
We collect anonymised data and analysing health trends in each locale, providing real-time insight into the spread of other diseases, pandemics, and the prevalence of drug resistance.
Our partnership with the City of Bulawayo’s Health Department has bolstered their efforts to reduce the spread of COVID-19, disseminate critical information at scale, and measure the impact of their policies.
To date, our AI chatbot has answered general questions related to the virus and our assessment questionnaire drastically reduced the burden on the city’s testing capacity.
