Prof. Eran Segal provides an update on his symptom-tracking questionnaire and how it can help predict the second wave of COVID-19. As he explains, testing is insufficient – by the time it is conducted, the infected person has already been spreading the virus – however, the machine learning- and AI-based questionnaire can identify COVID earlier.
It now includes questions related to reentering society. This allows for “surgical localized operations,” meaning only certain areas must go into quarantine.
The questionnaire, which is at coronaisrael.org, has been adopted by a number of countries.
