Asymptomatic spread percentages are not fully

many reliable estimates put it in the huge range,

And even more don’t.

as does this one:

"One of the more insidious features of the new coronavirus
behind COVID-19 is its ability to settle into unsuspecting hosts
*who _never_ show signs of being sick* but are able to spread
the virus to others."

Anyone whose plan doesn't take into account nearly half the cases,

You havent established that it is anything like half.

certainly needs to consider reconsidering their plan, IMHO.

Not when they realise that apps work fine for at least half the infected.

No one who matters has ever claimed that apps are the only thing needed.

Just as true of the other things done about the virus too.
