Description

Help critical research into major health conditions by reporting how you feel each day in the app, even if you feel well.

Join over 800,000 people in supporting scientists to help our national health services fight the biggest health issues of our generation. Millions joined ZOE to fight COVID-19 with their mobile phones from home. Why stop there?

The ZOE Health Study is an evolution of the ZOE COVID Study, which has data quoted in thousands of news stories and published in dozens of scientific papers. We’ve already proven that our approach can rapidly advance scientific understanding and public knowledge.

With our technology and dedicated Contributors, our research will look at how altering your day-to-day behaviour could impact your immune system and reduce the risk of developing major diseases from cancer to dementia. You will be directly helping us to develop an early warning system for disease detection which will help to save lives.

This app (formerly known as the ZOE COVID Study) allows you to help others but does not give health advice. If you need health advice please visit the NHS website.

DATA

The data that you give us for our research into diseases other than COVID-19 will be restricted to King’s College London and ZOE only unless you opt-in to share it more widely in the future.

Your data is protected under GDPR, and can only be used for the purpose that you consent to.

We’ll never sell your data and we’ll be transparent about developments we make to products that advance human health. Please read our privacy policy for more information.

HEALTH INFORMATION

You will be asked to share some general information, such as your age, and some health information, such as whether you have certain diseases.

DAILY SYMPTOM TRACKING

We will ask you to set up your ‘Usual Self’, this is your personal health baseline and will indicate any symptoms you may frequently suffer from. By telling us how you feel each day and reporting any changes in your usual symptoms, we will be able to relay valuable data to scientists.

ADDITIONAL RESEARCH STUDIES

We’ll conduct voluntary participant studies to see how lifestyle changes might work for you as individuals. We’ll play back insights from the studies to the community that will enable you to live your healthiest life and reduce your risk of developing major diseases.

In-depth studies into issues such as menopause and cancer will uncover detailed new findings to advance our understanding of major conditions and diseases. This app is designed and built by ZOE Global Limited, a health science start-up, in partnership with doctors and scientists at King's College London.

Use this app to identify clusters before they become overwhelming to medical professionals

This app took 5 minutes to make my profile, and 2-3 minutes at most a day at MOST to record my symptoms. If all neighbors used this, we’d have an easy way to identify the number of people coming down with symptoms that may or may not be Covid I leave that for the scientific people to evaluate. What’s helpful to us as a community is if we’re seeing a spread within the community that we might not be talks to each other about, or perhaps we live far enough away we’ve never met, this app can identify areas of concern where Covid infections might be rising and identify it for us before it grows out of control. I’m using this bks I know there are many dedicated professionals trying many different ways to slow the spread of this virus and this makes sense to me. I’ll try anything thrown at me to help myself my family my friends and neighbors through this as safely as possible. The more people to download and use this app, the more helpful it is to those trying to identify future “hotspots “ before they become hotspots. Please take a few minutes of your day and use. It could save you or a loved one by early identification of the virus in your community. Thanks and stay healthy everyone!

Please Download and Contribute

I think many are able to understand physical ways to give back that assist the medical sciences. We applaud those who donate plasma, organs, bone marrow, and blood. We may even understand the concept of being in a drug trial or donating our antibodies for research.

However, my own personal experience trying to share this app with my community is that they did not have the same level of competency and preparedness to understand the value of social inquiry to the medical field. Some folks I asked to participate responded with fear the app could record their personal lives or track their whereabouts. Advocating for use of this app was an eye opening experience for me as someone with a graduate degree from a social research institution of how far we need to go in bringing the public into competency with social research methods.

I would not have downloaded this app and would not be participating if the researchers were not vetted, the methods were unsound, or the institutions were not reputable. If that means anything to anyone, I hope it encourages you to please voluntarily participate with the scientific community to help figure this virus out faster than it figures us out. Thank you to those donating their time and symptom feedback for this important work.

Easy to use but …

The app is super easy to use but I think it needs to include additional dataset requests. Given the rate of new cases, adding datasets for testing availability, known incidents of exposure including where that exposure occurred ( work, church, school etc), and what protective measures were being utilized when the exposure occurred (ie mask, social distancing, hand sanitizer, vaccination without any additional measures etc). The only truly accurate way to disseminate false information regarding this virus is through data collection from individual personal experience. Have you lost a friend or family member to Covid/Covid complications, have you had a family member or friend test positive?
In the area we live doctors and nurses aren’t reporting information accurately due to personal and political biases. I’ve been told by countless people that their doctors & healthcare professionals have told them not to get vaccinated, that this isn’t that big of a deal, etc and I experienced the same commentary from emergency room staff in two separate facilities in two separate states , both small town hospitals in dominant politically conservative areas, even though their hospitals are at or over capacity with Covid patients who are critically ill. The line between political beliefs and scientific evidence skewed to support the political belief over scientific evidence to the contrary.
