Sometimes the slogan "Health For All" seems a bit cliched --until #technology provides another way to level the playing field. Thanks to media consultant Sharifa K. for sharing news about the world's first #artificialintelligence health guidance app developed in #Swahili , a language spoken by more than 100 million Africans in countries includiing #Uganda , #Kenya , #Tanzania , #Rwanda , #Burundi and #Mozambique . Globally, four billion people - more than half the world’s population - lack access to basic health services, with a disproportionate impact experienced by people in low- and middle-income countries. The Swahili app, developed as part of Ada Health 's #GlobalHealth Initiative in partnership with Fondation Botnar , combines a world-class medical knowledge database with intelligent reasoning technology to help users understand what might be causing their symptoms, as well as providing localized guidance about what they should do next. I'm excited about the potential of using #AI to boost #healthequity worldwide! #globalhealth #Africa #HealthForAll https://lnkd.in/eRBHRVZ …see more
