| Sumario: |
The availability of information locally and in an accessible way on active cases of COVID-19 is essential for the control of a pandemic because the population can be protected with greater accuracy and sensitivity. The Comprehensive Information Platform of COVID-19 in Costa Rica was created and was available during the first wave of COVID-19 and had a great impact on Costa Rican society and communities since approximately one million people received information from the Platform between July and December 2020.
Its construction specifically aimed at the different epidemiological moments of the country and the most relevant aspects of the Costa Rican agenda in the economic, social, and medical sector, made the platform fulfill the objective for which it was created since its instantaneous versatility made it adapt to the various moments of the pandemic in the country.
For the construction of this non-profit humanitarian project, we had the support of donations from Costa Rican civil society. |
