Covidsafe App

Covidsafe App

COVIDsafe App As countries around the world try to figure out the best way to limit the spread of coronavirus, many are considering some form of contact tracing app. Australia released COVIDsafe, an app that collects, via Bluetooth, records of other people with the app who have been in close proximity within the past 21 days. Aside from registration data, the information remains on the phone until a user who tests positive to Covid-19 consents to upload it. The data can then be used to trace the contacts of the infected person. More than 3.5 million people downloaded the app in the first five days following its release. Uptake is voluntary, but the prime minister, Scott Morrison, has said “millions more” will be needed. He said uptake of the app would inform discussions in national cabinet about easing restrictions. CBN supports the download of the COVIDsafe app: • As restrictions get lifted it will help us all fulfil our duty of care obligations by enabling quicker identification, helping to protect each other. • It will help return the wider business community to an operating status, by helping meet the 40% target of Australians who have installed the app. You can find out more information about the App and the Privacy restrictions here. Let’s all do our part and download the COVIDsafe app. The app will ask for your name, age range, postcode and phone number. The IT team will be contacting company phone users to ensure it is downloaded on company devices. We encourage you to consider downloading it on your personal device if you haven’t already done so. .
