Everist Health Covid Calculator

How to Use This Calculator

To use the Everist Health COVID Calculator:

1. Enter your age in years
2. Select your gender
3. Check any symptoms you're experiencing (fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc.)
4. Indicate if you've had recent contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19
5. Select your current health status (healthy, at risk, immunocompromised)
6. Click "Calculate Risk" to see your results

The calculator uses a weighted scoring system based on CDC guidelines and medical research to estimate your COVID-19 risk.

Formula Used

The COVID-19 risk percentage is calculated using the following formula:

Where:

• Age Score: 0-100 based on age (younger = lower score, older = higher score)
• Symptoms Score: Sum of selected symptoms (each symptom has a weight)
• Exposure Score: 0 (no exposure) or 50 (recent exposure)
• Health Score: 0 (healthy), 30 (at risk), or 60 (immunocompromised)

The final risk percentage is capped at 100% for maximum risk scenarios.

Interpreting Results

The calculator provides a risk percentage along with guidance on next steps:

• 0-25%: Low risk - Monitor symptoms, maintain good hygiene
• 26-50%: Moderate risk - Consider getting tested, practice social distancing
• 51-75%: High risk - Get tested immediately, isolate if possible
• 76-100%: Very high risk - Seek medical attention immediately
