| Résumé: | We are all together in a fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. Chatbots, if effectively designed and deployed, could help us by sharing up-to-date information quickly, encouraging desired health impacting behaviors, and lessening the psychological damage caused by fear and isolation.

Immediate collaborations between healthcare workers, companies, academics and governments are merited and may aid future pandemic preparedness efforts. |
