Do we need 5G ?

1.Remote gene sequencing, which is a 5G application, is helping improve the detection rates of Covid-19.

2.Unmanned or self-driving vehicles that spray disinfectants on their own are helping reduce the risk of infection of those working in quarantined areas. 

3.Infrared temperature measurement tools and mobile trolleys for quarantine ward consultations are other examples of how the healthcare sector is currently benefitting from using ICT.

4.The advent of 5G is also making it possible to provide telemedicine facilities in rural areas, with lesser transmission lag. Patients can communicate with their family members or counselors, and receive 24*7 medical interventions.

5.When it comes to the online education space, 5G technology is proving to be of paramount importance. Students can enjoy better download and upload speeds, and can connect with educators seamlessly from the comfort of their homes.
