Apple Watch Cardiogram App Helps You Monitor Your Body’s Response To The Flu
Posted in: Today's Chili
Unfortunately due to test kits for the coronavirus being limited, it means that doctors need to use them sparingly. This usually means that only if patients start to present more serious symptoms that doctors can then use the kits to test for the virus, versus more “general” symptoms that could simply be due to other factors.
So what can we do to see if we are infected? If you own the Apple Watch, you might want to check out the Cardiogram app. According to Johnson Hsieh, Cardiogram’s co-founder, “Cardiogram’s new Sleeping BPM feature can help users become more aware of how their body is responding to symptoms of the flu or other illnesses including COVID-19.”
Basically what happens is that when you’re sick, your heart rate will look different compared to when you are healthy. According to Hsieh, these changes in your heart rate are more notable during sleep, where your heart rate should be low, and seeing spikes or a faster heart rate could mean that something is wrong.
This app will not, we repeat, will not diagnose whether or not you have the COVID-19 virus. But rather, this app will let the wearer know if something is wrong and to allow them to better monitor their health. According to Hsieh, “We’re providing users with an additional tool to become more aware of how flu-like symptoms may be affecting their body through their heart rate patterns.”
If you’re interested in checking out the app, you can download it for free via the App Store. The Sleeping BPM will also be a free upgrade, but the app also offers a premium membership of $25 a year if they want remote monitoring and also exporting data to give to doctors.

As it is not advisable for people to gather in large crowds due to the coronavirus outbreak, the entertainment industry has been affected as it means that people are avoiding cinemas, and also live audience TV shows have had to take a break. However, late night talk show host Conan O’Brien plans to return to full programming and has come up with a way to do so.
According to a report from Variety, O’Brien has been revealed that be planning a return to late night TV by hosting his show remotely and filming it using an iPhone. His staff will also be working remotely and interviews conducted with guests will be done via video chat, thus ensuring that social distancing is being practiced.
Granted this will result in a very different show that fans are used to, but n a statement made by O’Brien, “The quality of my work will not go down because technically that’s not possible.”
The host’s longtime executive producer, Jeff Ross, was also quoted as saying, “We were making stuff and putting it out and trying to be a distraction, but we just realized – why not just do the show? It will be different ,and it may not be pretty, but we’re going to do it.”

The world is currently facing a crisis with the coronavirus outbreak. This has put an unprecedented strain on healthcare systems around the world, and even countries known to have really good healthcare systems are struggling to keep up with the number of patients admitted on a daily basis.
The good news is that it looks like tech companies are starting to step up to the plate to help where they can. More recently, Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk stated that the company will start to make ventilators if there is a shortage.
The CEO was quoted as saying, “Tesla makes cars with sophisticated hvac systems. SpaceX makes spacecraft with life support systems. Ventilators are not difficult, but cannot be produced instantly. Which hospitals have these shortages you speak of right now?” Of course, whether or not Tesla does start making ventilators remains to be seen, but at least Musk seems to be willing to lend a hand.
In the meantime, Razer has also announced that they will be lending a helping hand, where they have started to convert some of their manufacturing lines to start producing surgical masks. More recently, a group of engineers and designers have also gotten together to create an open-source design for ventilators that can be produced using readily-available materials and through methods like 3D printing.
