“Your participation and reports on HealthIQ informs Bermuda’s performance on the Reopening Indicators,” said the Minister of Health Kim Wilson. “The better we do on face mask wearing, physical distancing and adoption of technology such as HealthIQ, the better we will fare in managing COVID-19 on the Island and moving through our 4-phase plan. We have just over 5,000 HealthIQ participants now, and the target is 10,000 minimum, so I encourage everyone to participate. Your data is confidential and cannot be viewed by anyone at all. The App simply reports aggregate data and provides an excellent heat map of potential cases, showing which postal codes have more reports.”
