Corrona App - Whats the rest of the story ?
Several questions that don't seem to have been covered.
Bluetooth can have a theoretical range of several tens of meters. V5 up to 1 Km
How close is close for the app to make a connection ?
Is it anonymous ? If not, what will 18,000 contact tracers do with their time ?
What happens if my phone tells me I've been in contact with someone who has reported symptoms ?
Does it automatically tell me to isolate ?
For example, I live next door to an NHS worker who may well catch the virus. If I've been sitting in my garden, 10 meters away from them over a sunny afternoon, the other side of a 3m fence, will the Track & Trace brigade tell me to isolate ? Will I get notified of when the 'contact' took place so I can safely disregard it ?
Politicians have a touching belief in technology which unfortunately I don't share.
