Lintha pend app
The (lintha pandemic app) will be an app that solves the problems we mostly have in Africa, which is lack of sufficient accurate information on the pandemic itself and all other infectious disease, this app will not only consists of information but it will be an app that the health professionals can use to communicate with its people on how they can detect symptoms etc of the disease specified before coming to the clinics etc.
This can save health professionals by less contact with the patient, specially for a disease like covid and Ebola.
This app can change the health care industry not only in Africa but also some parts of the world, and can literally save lives by good accurate information and providing an accurate communication platform between patient and health professional.
We are solving the problem of less communication on pandemic etc provided to rural areas specifically, and we noticed with the previous ebola outbreak these pandemics hit the rural and less educated harder then the rest(giving more knowledge for free to empower the people) , this can also be there global as inaccurate knowledge of the pandemic or pandemics can course more people to die.
In my country we have 47,477 case of covid currently with 774 deaths which is not bad, but of the people infected if they lack more knowledge on covid and what to do these may be deaths as most of these numbers are people in the rural areas, and the Government does not support them much when it comes to technology and information. (Same goes to the world, the death rates are reducing then last year but if people are not up to date and not well informed about the protocols etc, the deaths can rise again. )
This will be an app that will be built and given for free to the mass and we will work hand in hand with the government or governments not only to distribute the technology but also provide smart phones as well to the needy and rural people.
This app will have up to date accurate information on any previous and current pandemics and all infectious diseases, and how to deal with them individually.
This app will also be linked to all private and government health workers and this will be a gate way for them to communicate and get involved with patients remotely and reduce doctors visits as much as possible and only come if its an approved emergency.
My target population is the nation or nations itself, but with the aim to target the needy and poor and less privileged so that they can be empowered and their lives can be saved by this knowledge.
Ans we believe by winning this prize or prices our app will be built for them and we will also need the prize to also help educate them on how to use it and operate it(this will be our Marketing outreaches that we will do)

- Concept: An idea being explored for its feasibility to build a product, service, or business model based on that idea.
We are still an idea stage and we have lacked funding and support to bring it to life, as we are a young company based in Africa it has been hard to implement.
- A new technology
it is innovative because it will change the behavior of people who did not want to use new technology and it will get them to engaged in it more as it also involves their health and lives, it will touch the lives of people who never had this chance of having such infrastructure.
