This is a public health initiative by DialMD in response to the State of Emergency declared by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on January 14, 2022.
These FDA-Approved self-monitoring devices can detect small changes in blood oxygen and temperature which you sometimes may not feel, and are therefore highly effective in the early detection of COVID-19.
There are more individuals hospitalized in Maryland due to COVID-19 right now than at any previous point in the entire pandemic. Virtually all COVID-related hospitalizations begin with a drop in blood oxygen which you may not feel.
If your oxygen meter's number ever drops below 94, it means that you are at a significantly increased risk for hospitalization due to COVID-19.
If your oxygen meter s number ever drops below 94, please immediately proceed to your nearest emergency room - even if you feel fine and/or have been previously vaccinated.
