TBC WhatsApp Bot - TBC Awareness & Screening
Tuberculosis doesn’t announce itself. It whispers. A persistent cough, night sweats, fatigue—symptoms that can mean TB or just stress. But by the time people realize something’s wrong, it’s often too late.
The TBC WhatsApp Bot changes that. It meets people where they already are—on WhatsApp—and provides instant access to TB information, risk screening, and expert answers. Early detection saves lives. This bot makes that detection accessible to everyone, instantly, and free.
What It Does
- AI-Powered Information – Ask anything about tuberculosis. Get factual, medically-sound answers instantly powered by Google Gemini AI
- Interactive Screening – Answer simple questions about symptoms and risk factors. Get an assessment of your TB risk level immediately
- Expert Q&A – Pre-prepared questions and answers about TB, with access to admin support for personal guidance
- Admin Support Queue – When people need to talk to a human expert, they’re automatically connected to the next available admin
- Persistent Records – Every screening result, every conversation, securely stored for proper follow-up and medical reference
How It Works For Users
Just open WhatsApp and start a conversation. You get three main options:
Screening Assessment – Quick questions about your health to evaluate TB risk. Personal information (name, age, gender), symptom assessment, risk factor evaluation, and instant results with recommendations.
TB Information – Ask anything. “What’s TB?” “How do you catch it?” “What treatments exist?” Get conversational, reliable answers without the medical jargon.
Questions & Answers – Browse commonly asked questions about TB. If your question isn’t there, connect with an admin who can help personally.
For Admins
Running the operation is simple and fair. Admins use commands to manage workflow:
- selesai – Mark a conversation complete
- status – Check current assignments and the queue
Questions are automatically distributed fairly among admins. When a new question comes in, the next available admin is notified. Everyone who needs help gets attention.
Why It Matters
TB is treatable. It’s preventable. But it requires awareness. Many people don’t know they’re at risk until it’s advanced. Some don’t know where to get help.
This bot solves that. It brings medical-grade screening to WhatsApp. It answers questions at 3 AM when someone’s worried. It connects people to experts when they need human guidance. And it does all this on a platform everyone already uses.
Early detection. Instant access. Better outcomes. That’s the goal.
Technology That Powers It
Built with Node.js, WhatsApp integration via Baileys, AI responses from Google Gemini, and persistent SQLite storage—everything designed for reliability, security, and simplicity. The infrastructure is invisible. What matters is the conversation that might save a life.
TBC WhatsApp Bot – Awareness. Screening. Support. Right there in WhatsApp.
