Guam is the first U.S Territory to launch an exposure notification app developed by engineers with Apple, Google, and the PathCheck Foundation uses Bluetooth technology for digital contact tracing. Guam COVID Alert is based on the PathCheck solution designed to work with Google Apple Exposure Notification (GAEN) application programming interface (API). GAEN uses Bluetooth in iOS and Android mobile phones to securely and confidentially identify when people may have been exposed to COVID-19 through the sharing of random keys that are automatically generated. This app proactively alerts an individual of an exposure notification, allowing the recipient to be informed and take the necessary steps to self-quarantine, seek medial attention and reduce potential exposure to others over the next 14 days. Individuals who test positive for COVID-19 will receive an unique randomized code from a DPHSS official which can be entered by the user into the Guam COVID Alert app to verify the positive report. Other app users who may have been in close contact to an individual who reported a positive diagnosis will then get alerted to an exposure notification through the app. By having a better understanding of who is potentially infected and laying low over the next several weeks, Guam can reduce the rate of transmission between individuals and stop the spread of COVID-19. Digital contact tracing is meant to augment manual contact tracing. The Guam COVID Alert mobile app is now available for download from the App store and Google Play.

    Brian E. Frosh Media Contacts: Attorney General [email protected] 410-576-7009 Attorney General Frosh Asks Apple and Google to Ensure All Contact Tracing Apps Serve a Public Health Purpose Bipartisan Coalition of Attorneys General Expresses Concern about Privacy Implications in Letters Sent to Apple and Google BALTIMORE, MD (June 16, 2020) – Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh today asked Google and Apple to ensure all contact tracing and exposure notification apps related to COVID- 19 adequately protect consumers’ personal information. Joining a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general, Attorney General Frosh specifically asked Google and Apple to guarantee that such apps, when available to consumers, are affiliated with a public health authority and removed from Google Play and the App Store once no longer needed by public health authorities. In a letter sent today to the chief executive officers of Apple and Google, the Attorneys General acknowledge that while digital contact tracing and exposure notification tools are valuable in understanding the spread of COVID-19 and assisting public health authorities, these same technologies pose a risk to consumers’ privacy. “In the midst of a global pandemic, easily accessible digital contract tracing apps may be a valuable tool to help reduce the spread of COVID-19,” said Attorney General Frosh. “But it is essential that we avoid exposing consumers’ personal and health information to unverified, questionable apps.” Digital contact tracing may provide a valuable tool to understand the spread of COVID-19 and assist the public health response to the pandemic. However, such technology also poses a risk to consumers’ personally identifiable information, including sensitive health information, that could continue long after the present public health emergency ends.

    Community Partners Use Your Phone to Fight COVID-19 The State of Delaware is pleased to announce COVID Alert DE, Delaware’s official COVID-19 exposure notification app, will launch September 15, 2020. As part of Delaware’s response to COVID-19, we appreciate what community partners like you have done to help slow the transmission of the coronavirus, protect lives, and reopen our state. To help further the fight against COVID-19, the State of Delaware is pleased to announce COVID Alert DE, Delaware’s official COVID-19 anonymous exposure notification mobile app, will launch in September. Delaware is joining the first handful of states in deploying an exposure notification app using the Apple/Google Bluetooth Low Energy framework. To maximize the app’s effectiveness, we need your help. The Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS) and our Division of Public Health (DPH) are calling on Delaware’s higher-education institutions, businesses and other community and non-profit organizations to encourage your students, employees, customers and community members to download and use this free app available in the Google Play Store and the App Store. Although our positive case counts are less than 100 per day, we know that could change. The more Delaware’s residents are aware of potential exposure to COVID-19, the more likely we are to keep transmission rates low, keep our friends and family protected and keep our economy moving forward. The Department of Health and Social Services takes privacy and confidentiality seriously, and we know that COVID Alert DE will raise questions about each.
