This has come from a local town hall, via the Teulada Moraira U3A president (thank you).

“For those of you who are in Spain, there is now an App for your smartphone to tell you if you have been in close contact with someone who has Covid-19.

Below is the link to the Spanish Track and Trace App which has been piloted in La Gomera and is now being rolled out more widely. We have just received the link from the Town Hall and have been asked to circulate it. When you download it (free of charge) on your phone you have the option of choosing English as the language.

The App will inform you if you have been in close contact with anyone who has Covid-19 and allows you to enter a code if you have a positive Covid test yourself. There is a clear data privacy statement and you can opt out at any stage. Clearly it will only work if everyone uses it so feel free to circulate this as much as possible.

We know of at least one person who has already downloaded it on her phone and it was very easy to do and, if enough people use it, it could be an effective tool in the fight against this virus.

Please take care of yourselves and those around you.”
