<p>sew one into your mask with an LED readout so everyone can see
your spO2, heart rate and temperature?</p>

<p>Interesting article...<br>

<p>I have had some experience with a mountaineering spO2
meter and a Withings fitness monitor with built in spO2...
the fitness monitor required removing the unit from the
band and holding it diligently against the pad of a
finger, and that didn't always give a good reading, but
once I understood it's idiosyncracies it wasn't bad. both
devices are long-since nonfunctional (not to be worn
swimming or in the shower it seems).<br>
</p>
<p>It seems like IOT wearables (already saturating the
market for fitness applications) like my Withings could be
getting better. Maybe even good-enough to be useful in
predicting/monitoring/tracking COVID19 symptoms/onset, at
least statistically... <br>
</p>
<p>There is some precedent with the Kinsa effort to use
their <a href="https://healthweather.us/?mode=Atypical"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">IOT thermometer
data to predict abnormal levels of influenza-like
symptoms</a>. <br>
</p>
<p>There seem to be a number of pulse-oximeter fitness
trackers.<br>

divers recovered from mild covid infection and

with less demanding pastimes may be in a

though a dive safety exam would turn it up,
