During times of crisis and stress, misinformation spreads more quickly than ever—and can have sometimes fatal consequences if people accept it as truth. States, cities, counties and towns need a way to securely, quickly and reliably communicate with the public to not only quell fears but direct their attention to accurate information. Seattle—one of the first cities to see a swell of cases in the United States—used Rave Alert to keep the public informed of facts as they developed and to redirect them to reliable sources of information.

Sending out reliable updates is only one facet of what states and communities need to do to effectively connect with and serve their residents. As public safety and health agencies and first responders grapple with the coronavirus outbreak and a surge in 9-1-1 calls, it is critical that they can proactively identify, communicate with and respond to those at greatest risk—as well as give first responders the foresight they need to protect themselves from exposure. That includes collecting and managing critical details about the public, including access and functional needs, quarantine status and high-risk categories such as respiratory conditions, immune deficiencies and more.
