Diagnostic patches and bracelets for promoting personal and community health including related processes, methods, and systems
Diagnostic patches and bracelets for promoting personal and community health including related processes, methods, and systems are directed to fever patches and fever bracelets for school and university health and wellness including mitigation of the spread of infectious diseases and contact tracing during an epidemic or pandemic. Other populations addressed by these methods include nursing homes, office buildings, and factories as well as the general citizenry of entire cities, counties, states, and even countries at large. Further apparatus and devices include disease detection patches and disease detection bracelets for identifying the onset of an infection and for detecting the present of antibodies to such infectious diseases. Related mitigation and contact methods for several different addressed groups and large populations are also provided for these disease detection patches and bracelets.
1 . A two-device fever detection system for maintaining social distancing, the system comprising:
a first fever detection device wearable by a first person and when deployed in use paired with a first mobile device carried by the first person;
a second fever detection device wearable by a second person and when deployed in use paired with a second mobile device carried by the second person, the second fever detection device including a second person transmitter configured to broadcast a fever signal when the second person has a detected fever, the second fever detection device including a sample analysis pad and a graphene detector configured to determine when the second person has a detected fever based on an analysis of a captured bio-material of the second person on the sample analysis pad, the second fever detection device implemented in a fever patch configuration or a fever-detection bracelet configuration to be wearable and removable by the second person; and
a first person receiver and transmitter implemented in the first fever detection device, the first person receiver configured to receive the fever signal from the second person transmitter and the first person transmitter configured to send a fever notification to the first mobile device so that when the second person has a detected fever and the first and second mobile devices are in proximity to each other, the first person may practice social distancing from the second person.
2 . The system according to claim 1 wherein the first person transmitter is further configured to broadcast a fever signal when the first person has a detected fever.
3 . The system according to claim 2 further including a second person receiver implemented in the second fever detection device, the second person receiver configured to receive the fever signal from the first person transmitter.
4 . The system according to claim 3 wherein the second person transmitter is further configured to send a fever notification to the second mobile device so that when the first person has a detected fever and the first and second mobile devices are in proximity to each other, the second person may practice social distancing from the first person.
5 . The system according to claim 1 wherein the first fever detection device is implemented in a fever patch configuration.
6 . The system according to claim 1 wherein the first fever detection device is implemented in a fever-detection bracelet configuration.
