Concept of a “standard human” is slowly being abandoned and patent stratification is the “new big thing” in medical research. Despite the technical success of the human genome project and millions of people being sequenced, translation of genetic information into clinical use is limited. Important aspect of biology that is not contained in our genome is lifestyle, which is a major factor in disease development. Collecting lifestyle data and measuring biomarkers that respond to lifestyle is needed to enable efficient patient stratification for personalised medicine.

The ZOE COVID Study
Predicting COVID-19 since March 2020
• 4.8 million users across the UK, US and Sweden
• 850,000 daily contributors
• Predicts "Symptomatic COVID" via ZOE algorithm
• Over 800 million health reports and 30 million
tests
• 1 million infections (confirmed by PCR or LFT)
• Detecting hotspots and changes in R before other
surveys for only a fraction of the cost
• Quantified side effects of vaccines early
• Discovered waning vaccines after 6 months
