Verspreidingskaart van met coronavirus geïnfecteerde mensen om je heen

One of the ways to control the corona virus (Covid-19) is to reduce its transmission by staying away from places where the virus may be present. This application allows everyone to anonymously share their corona infection status and their approximate location. Others can view the places where infected or carriers are on a map, and avoid circulating there or do it with more caution. For example, when you do your shopping, if you see the presence of infected people around your store, you can decide to do your shopping at another time. Or for example, if you live in a large building or residential complex, in case of the presence of infected people, you can put in place the necessary sanitary measures to avoid further contamination.

We have taken measures to protect the privacy of users of this application, including that no name, phone number, email or other account is required to use the application. Users' location are merely approximated on the map, and the map cannot be magnified to the point where one person can be distinguished from the others. By the way, no one's location is tracked in the app, and you only anonymously provide your location when you use the map.

One of our challenges is that sick or infected people may not have enough motivation to use this app. We all have loved ones who may be more at risk than others for various reasons, such as age or underlying illnesses. If you know someone who is sick or infected, please encourage them to help others keep their health using this app. With empathy, unity, a sense of responsibility towards others, and by acting in the collective interest we can beat the virus!
