Etihad Airways has partnered with Austrian-based
healthcare technology company Medicus AI to launch a COVID19
risk assessment tool.
Powered by Medicus AI’s technology, the
risk assessment tool will guide Etihad’s passengers in evaluating the
probability of having contracted the COVID19 coronavirus by
responding to a set of 22 questions.
The self administered
assessment, which takes less than five minutes to complete, is
based on World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines that are
updated daily.
Dr. Baher Al Hakim, Chief Executive Officer,
Medicus AI, said, “We are proud to support Etihad Airways in their
efforts to ensure the safety of its passengers and crew as the
world returns to normalcy. Our initial efforts at the start of the
pandemic were to help provide assessment and monitoring tools, and
as needs shift, our efforts have evolved to help our partners
bring people back to their day-to-day life in a safe manner.”
The tool is now available on Etihad's website
and soon on the Etihad Airways mobile application on the Apple iOS,
Android and Huawei platforms, and will be accessible in English,
with additional language editions such as Arabic, French, German
and Portuguese being added in phases.
Frank Meyer, Chief Digital Officer, Etihad
Airways, said, “As flying
operations begin to resume globally, we want to empower our guests
to make informed decisions on travel. Partnering with Medicus AI
on this innovative new tool is just one of the ways we are
adapting our operations and guest experience to meet the new
demands placed on the travel industry as a result of COVID19.”
