Of course, the post is talking about the Infectious Disease Tracker which allows users to detect nearby hotspots of infectious disease cases. These include diseases such as Rabies, Measles, Dengue, Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) as well as Covid-19.

The feature will also show the number of active cases of the infectious diseases mentioned above. The data will be sourced from the health departments at the state and districts levels.
