CovCT platform launched to track Malaysian Covid-19 hot zones

CovCT

Madison Technologies has announced the launch of CovCT, an independent contact tracing platform that hopes to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. The platform will kickstart in Malaysia today, allowing the community to practice social responsibility and provide timely data to healthcare practitioners to better assist them to treat potential patients.

CovCT is created to ease the contact tracing process and fight the spread of Covid-19 as a community together

With the Movement Control Order (MCO) issued by the Malaysian government to curb the spread of Covid-19, Malaysians are encouraged to stay home, socially distance themselves, and undergo self-quarantine for 14 days if they have returned from abroad. However, one individual from each household is allowed to leave their home to purchase essential items. This leaves room for the virus to spread as asymptomatic carriers come into contact with others.

During this period, contact tracing is key in controlling the spread of the disease. Though tedious and time consuming, it is necessary to identify individuals to seek care at the fastest speed possible to allow medical intervention or quarantine scenarios.

Building managements, business owners and even community leaders from across the globe can participate in this movement by registering their venue on the CovCT website. Upon registration, a CovCT kit will be provided which includes instructions and the unique QR Code poster. This can be printed and placed around the surrounding area of the registrant’s location*. It is encouraged that the locations ensure all visitors check-in and make any contact tracing effort more manageable for health authorities across the globe.

Users can then participate in the contact tracing effort via CovCT in 3 simple steps:

  1. Scan the QR code at the location visited 
  2. Fill up the details required 
  3. Ensure that your check-in is successful

With the introduction of CovCT that will be available globally for all communities for free, Madison Technologies hopes to encourage and empower all businesses, communities, and individuals to stay safe and be responsible wherever they may be by participating in the contact tracing efforts during this global pandemic.

*QR codes provided are unique to each location. If you are a business brand with multiple outlets in various locations, you will need to register all your locations and receive individual CovCT kits
