DataWalk Announces Software for Identifying Coronavirus Carriers

DataWalk, provider of intelligence analysis software, announced it has  demonstrated a solution it says can proactively identify potential supercarriers, patients zero and people at risk of contracting Coronavirus by connecting and correlating data such as immigration records, individuals who are known to be affected, and anonymized cell phone data. DataWalk claims it can help identify:

  • Sources of infection: Potential super carriers who are often resistant to the disease themselves and do not know that they can infect others.
  • People at risk: People who may have been infected through contact with a supercarrier, or with a person who is currently diagnosed with a virus (e.g., was on the same flight, in the same office, ate in the same restaurant, etc.).
  • Current and potential outbreaks.

DataWalk published a demonstration video.
