One of the initiatives includes KIRA, the friendly AI chatbot developed by the Department of Health (DOH) in partnership with Facebook. Through KIRA (Knowledge Informs Responsible Action), people are able to gain knowledge and new information related to COVID-19. Now accessible via DOH's Facebook page with Messenger, DOH Viber community, and KontraCOVID PH website, the chatbot provides common questions about the virus, tips on staying healthy, and a self-check tool to assess symptoms. The agency is currently working with telecommunication companies to offer the chatbot across all platforms for free. As cases for the COVID-19 virus rise and take its toll, more people start looking for information online. The CDC has a webpage for the coronavirus, which includes everything you need to know about COVID-19 from its symptoms, complications, and prevention if you think you caught the disease. It also includes facts, reports, and articles about COVID-19. Here you can also find screening tools, infographics, press briefings, and situational reports for COVID-19.
