Covid-19 Hackathon Winner: COVIDhub

In Progress

There are an estimated 1,300 pop-up Covid-19 testing facilities in the country, with the number continuing to grow to meet the needs of the area. While these testing centers allow more people to access vital tests, the rapid, un-standardized proliferation of Covid-19 testing centers has made it challenging for testing results to be communicated downstream to hospitals and doctors.
