I really want to call upon any engineers/managers at Apple/Google/Garmin/Fitbit: please start working on body temperature monitoring. It doesn't have to be a realtime readout like a heart monitor, but something that could work overnight to find an average. This could stop entire pandemics.

The usefulness instantly clicked when I saw this - awesome work, and I wish it were government promoted.<p>I&#x27;m no good at writing copy, but I&#x27;d work on the homepage&#x27;s phrasing. Link to <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;healthweather.us&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;healthweather.us&#x2F;</a> as well as the NYT article on them, rather than making a reference to Maddow elsewhere (it&#x27;d be dumb for someone to be turned away by that, but someone will be.) Explain that CDC data lags three weeks behind historically, and point out all the counties without data. Say all this on the front page, and run A&#x2F;B tests once you have enough visitors.<p>Again, great work!

May I ask how is any of the data you collect of any use if there is zero verification that said data is from actual people with symptoms?<p>I was just able to enter a US Zip code and normal temperature 98.6 without any verification. The site doesn&#x27;t even check for location. I was able to enter data for a &quot;US citizen&quot; from Europe. Then clear cookies and do it again.<p>Verification of data is a huge thing if you want to make any kind of decision based on that data.

Is anosmia worth including in the symptoms options?

I&#x27;m curious about something: Is fever is a symptom that would appear without someone noticing it? Wouldn&#x27;t other symptoms like chills&#x2F;coughing manifest first?

Will this track individual&#x27;s symptom progression over time? e.g. if I submit everyday as suggested, are these uncorrelated datapoints, or do you get trend info?

Just keep in mind that fever plus flu like symptoms is probably the flu!

I had an idea, that one way to eliminate this COVID-19 coronavirus, as well as the H1N1 influenza virus from civilization, is to shut down all human movement for 30 to 60 days.<p>You have to go 2 or 3 weeks, without any new reported infections to be sure.<p>This would require that all the countries and governments of the world, act in unison, to ensure that all 7 billion people are tracked, and monitored.<p>But the reality is, good luck, as this will never happen. The economic cost is too high, but the alternative, is that the COVID-19 virus will hunt down the human race.
