To ensure an early detection of deadly coronavirus (COVID-19) in one’s body and seek help to get cured, Dhaka city unit of Bangabandhu Parishad has launched a self-test app. A person with minimum IT expertise can have the self-test by giving answers to some simple questions in yes or no. “With early detection, the ‘COVID-19 SELF TEST’ app is also going to provide some advices also. If the symptoms are found little or medium, the person is being advised to take rest and take the test again after two days. If the symptoms are found severe, the person is being advised to take RT-PCR test, most reliable and recognized test to diagnose COVID-19,” organization’s convener Sardar Mahmud Hasan Rubel said. If the app detects anyone with severe symptoms, and no doctor is found to attend the patient, the organization is giving that person service through telephone. “We are providing the service from 9am to 12pm and we think for the time being, it is our main programme of the Mujib Year,” Rubel further said.
