One positive takeaway from this virus crisis is an elevated personal health profile. People will be more cognizant of the need for daily hygiene.
But most people will still be woefully ignorant of their vital signs. Ask someone how many steps they have taken today, how they slept last night, or what their pulse, blood pressure, oxygen saturation or heart rhythm are at any particular time and you’ll likely elicit a blank stare.
It’s amazing that people are still going around wearing a watch that only tells the time. If you have a watch that’s not connected, please dispose of it or give it away. If you can spend $1,000 on up for a phone, you can surely afford a $30 smart wristband.
Everyone should be wearing a Microwear T02 smart bracelet. It’s a signature example of the innovative electronics emerging from China. Calling this device a watch is like calling a iPhone a smart clock because it can tell time.
The three main symptoms of the coronavirus are fever, coughing and shortness of breath. T02’s outstanding feature is that it can take two critical measurements: body temperature and oxygen levels. It can take your – or someone else’s – body temperature, anytime, anywhere. It is claimed to be clinically accurate. It also acts as an oximeter, measuring your SpO2, or oxygen level. Difficulty in breathing could lead to a dangerous deficit in oxygen in the body. Both readings can be taken without removing the T02 from the wrist.
The third outstanding feature is that it can produce a ECG, a graph that shows how well your heart is working, which can be shared with your doctor. That is besides the common biomarkers such as heart rate and blood pressure.
