The website is available at https://covid19estamoson.gov.pt/ (the mobile application will also be launched soon).
"This site is intended to be a practical guide to support citizens, families and companies in combating the effects caused by COVID-19, making them aware of all the support available, as well as the necessary documentation - namely the forms they must complete - for the effecting of their rights ", explains a note sent by the Prime Minister's office.
The website, according to the Government, provides "a set of technological tools that enable the operationalisation of the teleworking regime", having been developed with the technology companies AWS, CISCO, Google and Microsoft and the telecommunications operators Altice, NOS, Vodafone and APRITEL.
"Citizens, schools, public services and companies may have the necessary instruments to continue their activities in the most efficient way possible, taking into account the exceptional nature of the moment we are going through," says the executive's note.
On this website you can also find the best way for citizens to use public services "without having to travel", as well as the exceptional measures adopted by the Government in each governmental area.
According to the Government, the "complete, consolidated and reliable list of emergency and support contacts created by the various public services within the scope of the fight against this pandemic" is also made available.

Hi we live in Portugal and are English it would be good if we could have some way of having this information in English.
As many people live in Portugal and have their primary language is English.
Maybe the government should help us understand too.
