Corona warning app
The 'Corona-Warn-App' helps to track and interrupt chains of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID–19 trigger) infections in Germany. The app is based on technology with a decentralized approach and informs people when they have been in contact with an infected person. Transparency is of vital importance in order to protect the population and increase acceptance.
