What data are we providing when we install Covid Radar on our mobile?

 We already have at our disposal the application to warn of possible coronavirus infections, Radar COVID. Let's see what its installation means and the data that is given when activating it.


There have been many months of waiting until the Radar COVID application has been ready. After its launch, it was requested that it not be used in order to carry out tests on its reliability in La Gomera. Now it seems that everything is ready to work and will soon be encouraged to install it on the mobile phones of citizens.

In principle, whether on iOS or Android, its installation does not require any major complications and can be activated or deactivated as desired. The operation is as announced from the first moment: people with whom you have been for at least 15 minutes and within 2 meters are detected via Bluetooth. This will remain in the memory and in case someone alerts that they have been infected, the people who have fulfilled that requirement of proximity will be notified.


Both its installation and the notification of having been diagnosed will be totally voluntary and anonymous. People who receive the alert will know their exposure to the virus, but not from which person it occurred. However, there are many doubts about it.
