How Artificial Intelligence can Help Against Coronavirus?

Artificial intelligence is playing an important role in fighting against coronavirus. COVID-19 pandemic has spread all over the world and has become a very serious issue. According to May 23, 2020 the number of confirmed coronavirus cases has reached to 5,306,235 with 340,047 deaths all over the world.

Many faster and cheaper projects of artificial intelligence are introduced and used to predict, diagnose, and manage critical conditions in COVID-19. It also helps in research, data analysis and decision making for future.

Artificial intelligence is helping in prediction about upcoming pandemic, so we can prepare ourselves for it. Blue Dot is a global Artificial Intelligence Database company which warned about COVID-19 even before warnings of WHO (World Health Organization).

AI is serving for research about COVID-19 and for preparation of medicines or vaccines against this epidemic. Scientists and researchers are using it to introduce and develop new and faster methods of treatments

It is also contributing in hospitals and health care centers for managing and handling the critical situations of COVID-19. Treating patients of this virus can be dangerous for nurses and medical staff. Robots can’t be affected with virus, so they can be used for supply of food and medicines reducing the human interactions.

As number of cases is increasing on the daily basis, it’s difficult to test, diagnose and treat every person. In this hard time, Apps have been developed to help people.

With these tracing apps, people can enter their data and can check if they have symptoms of COVID-19 or not. On the bases of this they can know that if they need to be isolate and visit health center or not.

It is true that we don’t exactly know that when and how COVID-19 will be ended but with the help of artificial intelligence, we can make analysis of huge data which can help in decision making.

Artificial intelligence can help in measuring the needs of medical resources for future e.g. masks and ventilators etc. As lockdown is enforced in mostly countries, it can be used to take future decisions about lockdown strategies and opening of schools and other institutes.
