Keep the Public Informed and Effectively Manage Public Health Crisis Responses

During public health crises, clear and consistent communication is crucial. With Genasys you can provide real-time updates on safety protocols that reach the public to keep them informed. Avoid the spread of damaging misinformation such as false treatments or rumors, which can spread rapidly. Use secure, real-time communication internally and externally to ensure coordinated efforts in resource allocation and response strategies. By promoting trust and compliance, effective communication helps manage disease outbreaks and protect public health.


Government agencies, hospitals, education centers, and more can keep their people safe through consistent communication and collaboration.

Genasys Protect during Health Crises

Genasys empowers public health officials, emergency coordinators, and government agencies with tools to communicate effectively, combat misinformation, and manage resources efficiently during health crises. This proactive approach enhances public safety and bolsters community resilience in the face of unprecedented challenges. 

Community engagement builds trust and cooperation between the public and health authorities. This makes it easier to implement and follow public health measures. Genasys Protect builds resilient communities in preparation for and during crises.

The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the consequences of misinformation, which fuels confusion and panic. Social media’s indiscriminate spread of both reliable and misleading information erodes public trust, making consistent public outreach even more crucial to mitigate the spread of disease. 

Using multiple communication channels, Genasys ALERT spreads verified information widely, directing the public to authoritative sources, which is essential for disease control. Using multiple communication channels increases the chances of people receiving key information since each channel has its own set of advantages. For example, SMS or the mobile app are a quick way to reach everyone while email provides the space for more in-depth information.

This comprehensive approach supports health services overwhelmed by demand, enhancing their ability to manage critical operations seamlessly.

During COVID-19 lockdown in Spain, police deployed vehicle mounted LRADs to instruct and inform the population:
“You can hear it from inside homes, and now we are mainly using it to warn people who are not in the streets, but they can be used for other purposes such as to warn people with reduced mobility, elders, people with hearing impairments.”
