A person's travel record
Any existing health issues
If it meets the warning symptoms, the healthcare virtual assistant will recommend a course of action based on WHO, government, local state government, district health professionals, and other healthcare guidelines.

Healthcare virtual assistants in the healthcare field are programmed to understand and respond to the most often asked inquiries. However, if a patient's medical situation demands more technical knowledge-based responses concerning a specialist subject, a virtual assistant can aid the patient by connecting with the available healthcare practitioner on a case-by-case basis.
Meanwhile, the healthcare virtual assistance communicates the patient's medical history with the doctor so that he or she may give the best recommendations depending on the patient's health status, saving time by just answering questions that can be answered quickly.
The need for prevention and education about the current situation is urgent. An AI-Powered Healthcare Virtual Assistance is one such powerful medium that can dispel all myths and stop the spread of false information about the virus.
