The Economy and Digital Transformation Ministry launched the first stage of a pilot programme

The Economy and Digital Transformation Ministry launched the first stage of a pilot programme yesterday to test an app designed to warn users if they are at risk of contracting Covid-19.

The app, called Radar Covid, will work on Android and iOS cellphones, and has been sent to Google and Apple so that it can be officially validated and included in their respective stores.

The test run of Radar Covid is taking place in La Gomera, in Canary Islands.

This technology is already available in Italy, France, Switzerland, Denmark, Latvia and Germany, where it was downloaded 12 million times just one week within its launch.
