“…Another possibility, in addition to Bluetooth and GPS, is self-reporting by users, as the Chinese government has done. Asian countries, such as China, South Korea, and Singapore, are pioneers in developing and using tracking measures for fighting the COVID-19 epidemic [ 20 ]. The government of Singapore has created an app to monitor the compliance of positive or suspected individuals to quarantine measures.…”

“…In the United States of America, some states developed contact-tracing apps for residents; for example, the Care 19 app in South Dakota (ProudCrowd, LLC, North Dakota, governmental) and the Healthy Together app (twenty inc., Dallas, TX, USA) in Utah and Florida. Last May 2020, Google and Apple jointly decided to release common application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow governments to develop their contact-tracing apps with the possibility of data exchange [ 20 ].…”

“…Due to the reopening of international travels, there is an increased risk of future waves of COVID-19: the international community should start working together to enable data sharing and data transfer between different contact-tracing apps. The isolation of contact-tracing apps will not contain the global spread of infectious diseases: all existing apps from foreign countries should communicate and exchange data [ 20 ].…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has worked as a catalyst, pushing governments, private companies, and healthcare facilities to design, develop, and adopt innovative solutions to control it, as is often the case when people are driven by necessity. After 18 months since the first case, it is time to think about the pros and cons of such technologies, including artificial intelligence—which is probably the most complex and misunderstood by non-specialists—in order to get the most out of them, and to suggest future improvements and proper adoption. The aim of this narrative review was to select the relevant papers that directly address the adoption of artificial intelligence and new technologies in the management of pandemics and communicable diseases such as SARS-CoV-2: environmental measures; acquisition and sharing of knowledge in the general population and among clinicians; development and management of drugs and vaccines; remote psychological support of patients; remote monitoring, diagnosis, and follow-up; and maximization and rationalization of human and material resources in the hospital environment.
