As per details, the robot named as 'Franzika' is in a test phase yet already helping workers in cleaning floors and disinfecting the surfaces.

Franzika, who brighten ups the hallways at a hospital, also helps the staff and keeps the mood light in the middle of the pandemic.

Moreover, she is also designed to tell jokes to medical staff. According to hospital officials, most of the people react positively to the robot.

Earlier during the pandemic when there was no awareness about how the virus spread and its exposure risks.

Hence many healthcare systems started utilizing robots and automated systems to meet those needs. 

The University of California at Berkeley were among the first institutes to reroute robot infrastructure in the process of Covid-19 testing efforts. Daily tasks of these robots included lifting test tubes, managing chemical dosses, and haul samples into neat rows. 

In their day jobs, the robots pull genetic material from cells using 'magnetized hands'. They are also running up to 4,000 tests each day.
