Pass. Will leave this to the grovelers and fear pimps to try out.
No, it's like saying that Walmart controls the furniture in your house. It's your house - you own it, you pick what furniture goes in it.
A lot of things about this pandemic should be federal level, but the federal level has abdicated. Such a great opportunity to step up to the plate, do bunch of work coordinating things, and go down in history as a hero. Instead the leader at the federal level downplays the virus, pretends it’s going away on its own, and insists kids should go back to school in the fall. So, the states have to handle this, because no one else will.WHY are states making apps? This should be a federal level thing.
Yeah. Call me crazy but I'll take my chances against a virus that 99.9% of people survive. lol.

More people in the US have died of Covid-19 than have died of traffic accidents in the past 4 years combined. Do you take your chances by not wearing a seatbelt? Or is wearing a seatbelt too much of a burden for you?Yeah. Call me crazy but I'll take my chances against a virus that 99.9% of people survive. lol.
I don’t think the issue has to do with funding. My understanding is that the head of the executive branch has affirmatively decided to take a federalist approach to responding to the coronavirus (i.e., states have to figure it out on their own).The US is trying to hammer out a new bill related to COVID impacts between $1 trillion and $3 trillion yet there's no money in either bill to setup a contract tracing app like this in the US?

The app uses services on the internet that rely on DNS, for example notification services. The rest follows, including fingerprinting of devices for identification and tracking.

Neither heart disease nor cancer are contagious in humans. And I dunno, there's a lot of focus on heart health, losing weight, cholesterol medication, etc., etc. If you think that the medical field doesn't do a LOT of work on heart disease, I don't know what to tell you. It's something they're deeply preoccupied with. California labels basically everything that has the barest chance of giving you cancer. Science news is always breathless with the latest possible treatment or diagnostic method for cancer.In the USA there are 2,813,503 people die each year among those 647,457 die from heart disease and 599,108 die from cancer (1 million+ combined). Yet hospitals were not mobilized neither for heart disease patients nor for cancer patients nor trillions of dollars spent over those patients. So the government prioritized covid patients over the 1 million + patients that die most, year over a year.
Read up till here in your post then had a hearty chuckle. Well done!This disease is a menace, and if anything, the media is underselling the danger.

COVID Alert has no way of knowing:
- your location - COVID Alert does not use GPS or location services
- your name or address
- the place or time you were near someone
- if you're currently near someone who was previously diagnosed
So ... "if you're currently near someone who was previously diagnosed" ... the app is 100% useless then? Blatant lies. The app does not and cannot do what is claimed unless it gathers personal information. It knows exactly the time you ARE near or were near someone; that's the entire point of the app.
Folks, don't be a sheep. The stats show less than 200 active cases across Canada ... at this point, the politicians have lost their minds and are either actively mocking the population or ... mocking the population. In Canada, they even released a news article stating individuals should use "glory holes" (no joke) to stay safe during COVID.
Not sure where you got that number from, but the current active cases in Canada is about 16,000, not 200. The worldwide death count is also at 680,000 and rising, plus all the “recovered” individuals with lung and/or heart damage.COVID Alert has no way of knowing:

Thank you for acknowledging this. ?Thanks. We were all in rapt anticipation to learn what types of things make you laugh.
You're afraid of an app that literally does nothing but sit in the background and log BT ID's of devices you've come in contact with. I think the fear porn is coming from the people who are against this app.
