The CV19 CheckUp Tool is designed to help you be safer and healthier during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This free, anonymous, personalized online tool was launched in New York State by the New York State Office for the Aging, in partnership with BellAge, Inc., and the Association on Aging in New York. It's purpose is to evaluate an individual’s risks associated with COVID-19 based on their life situation and individual behavior, and provides recommendations and resources to reduce those risks.
CV19 CheckUp fills a critical need for a comprehensive resource that educates, advises, and empowers individuals to help protect themselves from COVID-19.
CV19 CheckUp employs artificial intelligence to analyze data each person provides by completing an online questionnaire. It is designed for those who are considered high risk, including older adults, low income individuals, ethnic and racial minorities, and LGBTQ communities.
The tool’s algorithms are driven by science and medicine, using data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. The tool does not require a name, e-mail address, or identifier of any type.
Upon completion of the anonymous questionnaire, CV19 CheckUp immediately delivers a personalized report. The report answers questions such as:
- How likely am I to get COVID-19 or spread it to others?
- If I get COVID-19, how severe would it likely be?
- What steps can I take to reduce my risks of getting COVID-19?
- Where can I find help to ensure my needs are met during the pandemic?
