Peer Review Study
This article presents a model proposal for an interactive computer system using mobile phones and the internet for real-time collection and transmission of events related to COVID-19 that could aid the administration and presumptive management of COVID-19, especially in rural areas. This proposal shows that a sophisticated COVID-19 surveillance system can be built using mobile phones with the appropriate telecommunication technology partner.

Peer Review Study
The study explores where and how Black women are obtaining information that pertains to COVID-19, along with the impacts that COVID-19 may be having on their daily lives. A codebook was developed based on the recorded interviews, which included deductive and inductive codes. A thematic analysis of the data was then conducted using MaxQDA (Verbi Software), focusing on Black women’s experiences related to COVID-19. The majority of participants were using a combination of social media platforms and news sources to obtain information about COVID-19.
