Apple and Google's Covid exposure notification system aimed to help millions of Americans trace infections and make decisions about isolating and testing.
For that method, state health departments had to submit a configuration file with their contact information and Covid guidance to Apple and Google. The two tech companies would use the file to set up a feature on phones that users could activate to receive notifications.
One Apple user shared in a Twitter post that their alert said, "Your Health Authority Turned Off Exposure Notifications." Washington said the state generated more than 2.5 million exposure alerts through its app or the notification feature.and likely prevented about 6,000 Covid cases during the first four months after they launched in November 2020.Aby the U.S. Government Accountability Office said that the public expressed concerns about privacy. The report said the public may not trust both local governments and technology companies to handle sensitive health information.
