The recent Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has placed severe stress on healthcare systems worldwide, which is amplified by the critical shortage of COVID-19 tests. Effective screening of SARS-CoV-2 enables quick and efficient diagnosis of COVID-19 and can mitigate the burden on healthcare systems. In this study, a satisfactory accurate automated diagnosis model of COVID-19 based on patient symptoms has been proposed by applying several Artificial Intelligence (AI) models. For training, COVID-19 data has been collected from Israeli Ministry of Health publicly released data. We have used Artificial Neural Network and Decision Tree for classification or prediction purpose. The proposed model predicted COVID-19 test results with satisfactory accuracy. Hence, this AI based diagnostic framework can be used, among other considerations, to prioritize testing for COVID-19 when testing resources are limited.
