To put an end to the spread of novel coronavirus, it is important to identify the most common ways of contracting it and learning how to wash it off. Among other things, the virus spreads through hands, clothes, plastic and metallic objects. Here are some tips on how to wash off your contact with the virus.

The recent pandemic of COVID-19 has shaken the human population globally. It is critical for each citizen to become aware of and follow the known prevention measures to thwart this virus and slow down its spread. CDC suggests the following steps to protect yourself against the novel Coronavirus:

Globally, the number of people known to have contracted COVID-19 infections is rapidly approaching 2 million, and nearly one-third of the affected individuals are from the U.S. The situation is beyond grim, and regulatory bodies in the U.S. are acting quickly to contain the damage resulting from the spread of this novel virus.

Yet, have we implemented the operational shifts needed for true value-based care?

Healthcare data storage will be touching the zettabyte-scale in the coming years with increasing services and patients. Every year, a significant amount of data is generated from medication administration records, lab records, EHRs, wearable health devices, and various other sources.
