I think the author is correct that people are missing the forest here. I know plenty of people that would have no problem with public tracing of patients (myself included), but it wouldn't be effective in stopping the virus here. And n

if you re not social distancing there s no way you can stop this virus with an app. it's a highly highly infectious airborne virus. you can ease the lockdown and keep distancing rules. not sure if the app will help in that case

all you need is an X-Notification header . i guess nobody is going to do it though because they can't lock in users.

iceland launched the C19 app on april 1, 1 week after their epidemic had already peaked. I havent seen their install statistics , but i m not sure it s as effective as people here think it is

exactly. do we have data about whether contact tracing of this kind ever worked? S.Korea started testing+tracing somewhere midway in their epidemic, far earlier than where the epidemic is now in france, uk and USA. maybe other countries can

Why is this needed? and why would i sign up for it , esp. knowing how much they both know about me already? The text doesn't tell us why contact tracing is important - Did contact tracing apps really save anything in singapore/tai

i assume we re looking for asymptomatic people, they won't have quarantined themselves

by buboard 6y ago
i doubt that , if this magical strain does exist, any regulation is going to stop people from just getting themselves infected

by buboard 6y ago
they re probably not sequencing asymptomatic people's virus, it would require some specific expedition. it doesn't even sound hard or expensive reply to @ajross: how would they know someone is asymptomatic? afaik they are mostly t

does that mean that cured people will start re-infecting people?

no but we also need evidence that it's useful

> If it was killing 50-60% of people infected then yes the selection pressure would be there it isnt killing, but it's isolating them, preventing its spread

Considering that we are now in a shutdown, and assuming that most symptomatic people do get tested and isolate themselves, doesnt that mean there is pressure for asymptomatic strains to evolve and keep spreading faster in the population any

the author is suggesting that ad spending online correlates with increased sales. is that the case? seems a big part of ad spending is simply part of burning VC money regardless of outcome.

and how would we know that the harmless-virus infection protects against the dangerous strain? are there already databases of sequenced strains? and how would the regulatory aspect work? if the harmless individual is no longer infectious, h
