Our response to the coronavirus COVID-19 disease pandemic:
The CoviGuard App, powered by Mipha was developed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Mipha App has been in development for other disease and pest epidemics for the past 3 years, and has served various academic and research roles to date, but with the advent of the novel coronavirus disease COVID-19 it has proven to be ready ahead of its time in its ability to rapidly contribute towards managing the pandemic.
Core to the app’s value proposition is that it allows real-time notification from stakeholders to users of the app, about key information relevant to the general public. Notifications of new policies or regulations that have been announced from government, and useful government sanctioned information about the disease.
Most recently Mipha is being used by the South African Port Health Authority to validate COVID-19 PCR test results from various laboratories.
Compatible with Android, IOS, Windows and other systems.
