Mike Freni CEO & Chairman at KUMBAYA.
With the final development of our zeroXess we are able through USB detection devices to communicate with mHealth apps enable a “distributed” model of healthcare provision – healthcare field agents can consult with patients and collect the necessary information, relay it back to specialists, and receive treatment recommendations.
There are few things worse than the death of a child. No matter which child from what part of the world; boy or girl, or whether that child is known to you or not, sadness touches even jaded hearts when a child dies. “About 29,000 children under the age of five – 21 each minute – die every day, mainly from preventable causes.
More than 70 per cent of almost 11 million child deaths every year are attributable to six causes: diarrhea, malaria, neonatal infection, pneumonia, preterm delivery, or lack of oxygen at birth. These deaths occur mainly in the developing world. An Ethiopian child is 30 times more likely to die by his or her fifth birthday than a child in Western Europe. Among deaths in children, South-central Asia has the highest number of neonatal deaths, while sub-Saharan Africa has the highest rates.
