Contact tracing for COVID-19
Contact tracing plays a crucial role in stopping the spread COVID-19. This process consists of identifying the people who have contracted the virus, their contacts, and the places they visited when they were infected. This information can then be used to interrupt the spread of the disease. This includes asking patients with COVID-19 to stay home and isolate. Contact tracing also involves obtaining diagnostic respiratory specimens.
California state officials began to implement COVID-19 contacts tracing efforts in California. These efforts are supported by many private health providers and local departments of health. The Governor's Office announced the establishment of 80-100 high-throughput testing centres, in partnership with a managed care consortium. This consortium is establishing facilities to process 10,000 tests daily.
For decades, contact tracking has been proven to be a reliable method of controlling infectious disease. It has been used to control diseases such as Ebola and MERS. Contact tracing is a highly efficient tool that allows the majority of the population to return back to their normal lives when it is done properly. To be effective, however, contact tracing must be widely used.
COVID-19 vaccine management
Accenture recently rolled out a COVID-19 vaccine management solution to support healthcare and government organizations develop COVID-19 vaccination programs. It leverages Salesforce's manual call tracing capability, and is easily deployable. It allows healthcare organizations to securely track each resident's vaccination journey, starting with registration and ending with appointment scheduling and final administration. It also supports reporting and analytics.
Accenture will support Gavi - a global coalition dedicated to equitable access COVID-19 vaccins. It is a multilateral project that aims for two billion doses of vaccine worldwide by 2021. Its primary goal is to increase vaccine access for low- and moderate-income countries.
COVID-19 vaccine program is a large effort that requires the coordination of technology platforms and supply chain. Additionally, it requires significant education to ensure maximum coverage. While some jurisdictions use massive centralized vaccination centers, others depend on networks of pharmacies and healthcare providers to administer the vaccine. However, they all need to maintain contact management.

How To
How do you find the best consultant?
The first thing to do when looking for a new consultant is to ask yourself what you want from him/her. You should know exactly what your expectations are before you start searching for someone. It is important to make a list with all the requirements you have for a consultant. This list could include technical expertise, project management skills, communication skills and availability. After you have listed your requirements, it might be a good idea to ask colleagues and friends for their recommendations. Ask them what their experience with consultants was like and how they compare to yours. You can also do some online research if you don't know of any. There are many websites that allow users to leave feedback about their previous work experiences, such as LinkedIn and Facebook, Angie's List or Indeed. Use the feedback and ratings of others as a starting point to search for potential candidates. Once you have a shortlist, be sure to contact potential candidates directly to schedule an interview. In the interview, discuss your needs and ask them for their suggestions on how you can achieve them. It doesn't really matter if they were recommended; as long as they understand your business objectives, they will be able to show how they could help you achieve them.
