Huawei contributes tech solutions for Malaysia's Covid-19 fight

KUALA LUMPUR: Huawei Malaysia has donated four technology solutions to the Ministry of Health to support the country's efforts to fight the Covid-19 pandemic.

Huawei Malaysia said the solutions will enable healthcare experts to work with frontline medical professionals to conduct remote online consultations with patients and enhance the effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment.

The solutions would also ensure there is continuous communication in real-time between the government and public hospitals, via its video conferencing and wireless connectivity capabilities, Huawei Malaysia said in a statement today.

Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba said the ministry was grateful for Huawei Malaysia’s help, especially to the front-liners of healthcare professionals during the trying hour.

“Through their donation, we continue to press forward in curbing this pandemic as fast as possible,” Adham said in the statement.

Huawei Malaysia chief executive officer Michael Yuan said the four solutions were Huawei Telemedicine Video Conference, Hospital Wireless Network Communication Solution, AI Cloud Auto Detection Solution and Nova 7i smartphones (200 units).

Yuan said the video conference solution would provide secure, professional, and reliable audio for all the quarantine hospitals to have a real-time video conference and collaboration with the Ministry of Health.

The Hospital Wireless Network Communication Solution will provide wireless network coverage for hospitals, wards and emergency medical tents.

“With Huawei 5G-powered unique antenna and algorithm technologies, Huawei wireless network communication can provide services with no waiting time and achieve no packet loss during roaming.

“This allows various users, including doctors in diagnostic rooms, nurses in wards and epidemic emergency teams to utilise the high-speed network connection in their fight against Covid-19,” he said.

The AI solution leverages core cloud services such as cloud-network synergy, Big Data and artificial intelligence of Huawei Cloud and its partners.

It will enable early detection and diagnosis so that hospitals can swiftly identify the infected patients for early quarantine and receive early treatment.
