A team of four students and two faculty members of Assam Don Bosco University in Guwahati have launched a website to give information on coronavirus in the state to its residents and NRIs from the region.
The team comprises Anuron Patgiri, Sanjiban Roy, Injamul Islam, Jayantajit Gogoi, Rupesh Mandal and Nupur Choudhury.
Choudhury, an assistant professor of computer science and engineering at the university, told The Telegraph on Saturday, “We conceived the idea of providing a platform to the users, both in English and in Assamese, so that everyone knows about the situation in Assam.”
Covid19assam.in is a website-cum-dashboard which hosts the tracker of Covid-19-infected patients in all the districts along with statistical graphs and has many other imperative features.
“We enclosed some vital features like symptom checker, testing centres information,” Choudhury said. The website displays testing centres in Assam along with directions to reach those. Covid-19assam.in also displays the latest tweets by Assam health minister Himanta Biswa Sarma,” Choudhury added.
The website features latest news articles, related to Covid-19 in Assam.
