So it looks like it'll be ready for us to use soon, instead of it beeping an hour later when you've been somewhere near a carrier why couldn't it alert you before the contact, ie about 20 feet proximity, you'd know to be a little more cautious etc.
Just a thought.  |

"I feel this app is a case of after the horse has bolted"
By now the horse is probably in the glue factory, along with every other horse we've had since this started.
The app is important going forward though. If we can just isolate people that pose a risk to others I think we'll all be happy. A 2nd full lockdown later in the year would probably start a civil war! |

Once the person with the app is tested positive they will be required to isolate and you won't be able to be close to them
It's a useful tool not a psychic |

People should be cautious all the time.
It's going to be pointless anyway. A woman in IOM on the news yesterday made a comment that she knew someone who had an app alert to say they'd been in close proximity with a covid infected person in Tesco - they should therefore self isolate for 7 days.
However the person said they couldn't afford to be off work and just wouldn't take their phone the next time they go to Tesco... !!  |
