MYEGuard

Unterstützung der Bemühungen der Regierung zur Bekämpfung der Verbreitung von Covid19 durch Kontaktverfolgung

MYEGuard app will enable to identify people who have been in close proximity (within max of 10m for at least 30 minutes) to coronavirus patients or a person with suspicious symptoms using Wireless Bluetooth technology. Records of such encounters are stored locally and encrypted on each user’s phone and send the data REALTIME on the Dashboard.

If a user is interviewed by a Medical Officer as part of the contact tracing efforts, he/she can consent to send his/her MYEGuard data to the Medical Officer. The data can be used to corroborate manual contact tracing (i.e. Health Officers interview infected patients to get a list of their contacts) as well as to find the known and unknown (i.e. infected patients might have been in a meeting/conference) where they do not know everyone.

MYEGuard does not collect or use location data and does not access a user’s phone contact list or address book. It only uses Bluetooth data.
