SINGAPORE, Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Singapore has seen a sharp increase in daily COVID-19 cases since September, reaching an approximate average of 3,000 daily cases. Primary Care avenues such as General Practitioners and Telemedicine service providers are stretched thin.
UNO Technologies launches COVID-19 Assistance Telemedicine Initiative
UNO Technologies (https://www.unotech.io/uno-docket-covid19-assistance/) has mobilized its resources to modify its solution and deployed a telemedicine solution addressing COVID-19 related issues. This aims to help alleviate the anxiety and uncertainty that many Singapore residents are facing related to the pandemic, by providing them an avenue to reach out to Doctors for advice. Moreover, reducing the odds of community spread by reducing physical visits and re-directing non-critical cases away from primary care facilities, reducing the strain.
UNO Technologies’ parent company Essex Bio-Technology Ltd has also committed SGD $250,000 in funding to help sponsor all qualifying first consults on our COVID-19 Telemedicine platform. This seeks to remove any financial barriers for patients needing advice on what to do next with their exposure to this pandemic.
All Doctors on this initiative are Singapore Medical Council registered practitioners. As of 27 Oct 2021 there are more than 20 Doctors on board and the team is working hard to onboard more to meet the demands of this initiative.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.
Please consider making a contribution today.
Thank you for your support.
