New tools that will assist in the investigation and tracking of positive cases of COVID-19, has been unveiled by Yellowstone County s public health service.
According to a press release from Riverstone Health, the Sara Alert System now allows residents who are sick to voluntarily share information about their symptoms via text, email or phone. This new system will help with the efficiency of case tracking, which will reduce the strain on our other public health services, according to RiverStone Health.
The Sara Alert is already being used in other communities in Montana, and is approved by the CDC.
Montana State University Billings was the test pilot for Sara Alert in our community. MSUB started using the system in mid-November. Aaron Like, Associate Dean of Student Engagement at MSUB says they first used Sara Alert to more effectively communicate their contact tracing efforts to RiverStone Health.
