Answer:

C. Aarogya Setu, eSanjeevani, and U-WIN

The 'Health & Wellness' section of India Stack Global features several projects focused on public health and digital healthcare. The most prominent among them are Aarogya Setu, eSanjeevani, and U-WIN.

Aarogya Setu

This app was developed to help with contact tracing and spreading awareness during the COVID-19 pandemic. It used a user's location and Bluetooth to track potential exposure to the virus, providing a crucial tool for public health management and risk assessment.

eSanjeevani

eSanjeevani is a national telemedicine service that allows patients to consult with doctors remotely. It has two main models: one for direct patient-to-doctor consultations and another for connecting patients at health centers with specialists in larger hospitals. This initiative makes healthcare accessible to people in remote and rural areas.

U-WIN

The U-WIN platform is a digital infrastructure for India's Universal Immunization Programme. It digitizes the vaccination records of pregnant women and children. The system helps in scheduling appointments, issuing digital certificates, and sending reminders, ensuring a smooth and efficient immunization process across the country.
