Hi HN, for a bit of background, the initial prototype got built in 3 days (met the doctors on Sunday, rolled out wed. night). We've since built out a pretty autonomous piece of software that can allow doctors to add each other and easily build out coverage over a country. We've spread quickly to 130 ICU wards in France which covers >2000 COVID+ ICU beds, and are hoping ICUBAM can be potentially useful to other countries with an overstrained ICU system.

this is very cool! good job on "getting out of the way" + making it easy to enter data.

How do you know who to text (who is on shift, that is, as shifts change)? Or do you just text everyone periodically?

We just text all doctors 2x a day (but are ramping down to 1x a day now that things are a bit calmer).
