- For Example: Alice and Bob meet each other for the first time and have a 10-minute conversation.
- Their phones exchange anonymous identifier beacons (which change frequently).
- Bob is positively diagnosed for COVID-19 and enters the test result in an app from a public health authority.
- With Bob's consent, his phone uploads the last 14 days of keys for his broadcast beacons to the cloud.
Following are the key factors to consider according to Apple and Google
- These tool will work using the bluetooth technology.
- Both companies will release APIs that will enable interoperability between Android and iOS devices using apps from public health authorities.
- These official apps will be available for users to download via their respective app stores.
Hope all these measures will help in preventing the spread of the deadly Corona Virus.
