New BI SINAVE platform improves COVID-19 information system

16.11.2020

The Director General of Health, Graça Freitas, announced this Monday the entry into force of BI SINAVE, a new system of treatment, analysis and communication of data more dynamic, in the framework of the COVID-19 pandemic. This platform collects a greater volume of information and enables faster and better quality updating of laboratory data.

BI SINAVE thus has greater capacity to process the information contained in the databases (SINAVE Lab and SINAVE Med) and maximises the usefulness of the information from various complementary sources (Trace-COVID and National User Register).

The platform resulted from the joint work of the teams of the Directorate General of Health and the Shared Services of the Ministry of Health to provide a more up-to-date and detailed general accounting of the pandemic to citizens, local intervention teams, academia and policy makers.
