UK To Launch Smartphone App For Tracking COVID-19

A Swiss soldiers holds his smartphone showing an app, created by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne that could help trace those who have been in close contact with someone who tested positive for the COVID-19. Fabrice COFFRINI / AFPBritain was poised on Monday to roll out a new smartphone tracing app for coronavirus on an island off England’s south coast, as the country looks to ease a six-week nationwide lockdown.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock announced the app would be available to the island’s health professionals from Tuesday, before being rolled out to all of the island’s roughly 80,000 households later this week. Britain is one of the worst-hit countries in the COVID-19 pandemic, announcing another 288 deaths on Monday to take the death toll to 28,734 — the third highest globally and almost on a par with second-placed Italy.

The island is seen as an ideal place for the trial because it has no direct links to mainland Britain and has a relatively low number of confirmed virus cases.
