RESUMEN
Goal: The aim of the study herein reported was to review mobile health (mHealth) technologies and explore their use to monitor and mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A Task Force was assembled by recruiting individuals with expertise in electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (ePRO), wearable sensors, and digital contact tracing technologies. Its members collected and discussed available information and summarized it in a series of reports. Results: The Task Force identified technologies that could be deployed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and would likely be suitable for future pandemics. Criteria for their evaluation were agreed upon and applied to these systems. Conclusions: mHealth technologies are viable options to monitor COVID-19 patients and be used to predict symptom escalation for earlier intervention. These technologies could also be utilized to monitor individuals who are presumed non-infected and enable prediction of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, thus facilitating the prioritization of diagnostic testing.

National laws play an important role in the governance of the aviation activities. This is no less the case during the Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, where national law has been a vital tool in combating the spread of the virus and offering support to the aviation sector. This report examines different jurisdictions, which have been written by experts in the field of aviation law, where they have addressed the pre-existing national rules in place prior to the pandemic, the measures taken to combat the spread of the virus, the actions taken to help the aviation industry survive, and any reflections on the future post-COVID-19 world.
