LAGOS, NIGERIA - While climate change and natural, human-made stressors impact human health differently, research indicates that even slight weather changes can affect a person's general wellbeing.¹

A 2021 report by the World Health Organization suggests that climate change affects both social and environmental determinants of health, noting added costs of between USD2-4 billion by 2030.² The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention further estimates that "some existing health threats will intensify as new health threats emerge."³

Fortunately, innovators at WeatherWell - the world’s first weather-based health app - are helping people better understand how weather affects their health. They believe that by learning more about how climate influences health, a person can personally stay in control and keep track of their own wellbeing.

The application can track over 20 weather-related symptoms - including headaches, allergies, and breathing difficulties - with accurate local weather forecasts, scientifically backed AI algorithms, and a user's own individual medical information. It can also accurately predict the likelihood of these occurrences in conjunction with expected weather conditions.

"All the algorithms going under the hood in the WeatherWell app utilized more than two independently verified scientific studies," said Olga Sadovskaya, MD, clinical product manager at WeatherWell. "While consumer case studies are in the works - shortly, we are encouraged to help customers plan their daily activities by providing evidence-backed upcoming risks of weather-related health problems."
