NewsWire -- HealthLynked
Corp. (OTCQB:
HLYK), a nationwide
healthcare network
focused on care management of its members and a provider of
healthcare technologies
that
connect doctors, patients and medical data today announced
that its tracking
app was
the
#1 most
downloaded app in the Apple
medical
store for the month of
March
with
over
2 million downloads in
just 4 weeks.
Users
are from
around the world and are broken out as follows: USA and Canada

or
42%, Europe
710,226
or
35%, Asia Pacific
243,000 or
12%, Africa
&
India
137,889
or

74,756 or
4%.
The
app
offers a
unique set of tools that allow users to
track
local cases of COVID-19, report symptoms and talk with other users
around the world. Early detection of
COVID-19 is important to prevent spread and users
can
report if they are having any symptoms such as
fever, cough or
shortness
of
breath, as well as
report
if
they have tested positive
for COVID-19 or if their
results
are pending. The application
updates data from the
CDC (Center for
Disease
Control)
and
WHO (World
Health
Organization)
every 30
minutes
for every country around the world.
The
HealthLynked team also updates cases at the county level
in
the
US twice a
day, reporting
confirmed
cases, deaths and recovered
cases.
News
feeds also provide the latest updates to users and guidelines on
how to prevent COVID-19 infection, risks
for
pregnant women,
concerns for pets and
transmission, and a
contact
directory
for each state's
health
department.
One of
the unique features of the application is that it allows users to
chat in real time with people from around the world
and
share
information and
important
updates
about
their area. The chat
feature
has over 100,000 active
users and continues to grow. Registered users can
upgrade their chat avatars and access member
chat
rooms not available to other users.
Social
distancing has been key in preventing the spread of COVID-19
and medical offices have
adjusted their practices to keep patients separated
during
check-in to avoid exposure.
HealthLynked's
patient
access hub "PAH"
technology is
uniquely designed to allow patients to
check in
via
their smart
phone, thus avoiding
exposure at front desk areas, contact with high traffic
surfaces
and other
devices.
Patients
can even check in from their cars in the parking area and be
alerted
via text message when their
doctor
is ready to see
them, eliminating wait time
in high exposure areas.
Dr.
Michael Dent CEO stated "I am proud of our
development team and how rapidly we
responded
to the COVID-19 pandemic. The HealthLynked Covid-19 tracker has
been the number one most downloaded app in the Apple
medical
store for past
month, a testament to our
design and the
connectivity
we
offer."
"Our PAH technology
is also
key to
keeping patients safe
and
reduce exposure at
point-of-care medical
offices." Dr Dent went
on to say, "we are working with
our members to connect them to their healthcare providers,
coordinate their medical care and connect them to the larger
global
HealthLynked
Network."
