security if one misunderstands the purpose.


I still need you to answer a simple sensible question based on logic:
o *How is the app gonna tell _YOU_ asymptomatics were in contact with
YOU?*


When those they infect test positive and the app tells
you that because of that you should get tested.

Please read this before you respond:
o Nearly Half of Coronavirus Spread May Be Traced to People Without Any
Symptoms


That’s because they are PREsymptomatic, not permanently asymptomatic.
