general questions useful for the hackathon:

From the perspective of medical anthropology, intersectionality:

Target an Application that creates a social profile to be utilized to facilitate social interaction minimizing socioeconomic damage during pandemics (sadly they are here to stay) and unlike SARS1 that ground pockets of economy to a halt, SARS2 has ground the global economy to a halt.

• A central tenet – there is no biomedical (vaccine, antiretroviral) response to COVID19 • As with SARS1, MERS etc, medical treatments are possible, but unlikely • This is key, our response is a social response (physical distancing, shelter in place) limiting social interaction • End result is to break the chain of transmission of COVID19 utilizing app that contains a social profile to identify safe interactions • Allow privacy but health identifiers • Are the app connections both govt and society-based? • What is the main target function of the app? • Data sets and math to create? • Critical not to infringe on rights in the West. • Asian approach of lock down can’t be used in the West • Foucault’s biopower in play, the peoples power and rights fed back up to the government • The app navigates this contour of human rights versus government control • Surveys to get profiles? What is the value/danger of profiling? • How does the app contribute to the social response to COVID19, since that is our only response?
