Not true. You may be assuming that asymptomatic means not contagious or

Hi FromTheRafters,

It's clear Rod Speed (aka %%) doesn't comprehend that asymptomatics can be
contagious (remember the WHO retraction on that very subject?).

I think I understand Rod's flawed logic, which fails in this case:
1. Asymptomatic person is close to you for 15 minutes
2. The app won't tell you a damn thing.

I think what Rod Speed's logic is simply that, eventually, you WILL get
sick (app or no app), perhaps from that asymptomatic person, and then, and
only then, will the app tell anyone anything (after you already get sick)
because, if you're still alive, you can then tell the asymptomatic person,
belatedly, perhaps weeks later, *that _he_ was exposed to _you_*.

At least that's what I "think" Rod Speed's flawed logic appears to be.
