Know the risk of Coronavirus

A new NHS COVID-19 App has been introduced to the public to help reduce the spread of coronavirus. The NHS has advised the public to download the app to help protect their loved ones.

The NHS COVID-19 features

The app is beneficial to detect those who were tested positive with Coronavirus anonymously. The NHS Covid-19 App is able to send out various alerts, including: 

Contact tracing alerts -  The app sends out a notification based on your surroundings and who may be infected with Covid-19. 

Postcode alerts - This alert sends out a notification when there’s a risk of infections in your area. This will help you to be extra cautious when you are out on your daily routine.

Exposure alerts - The app allows users to check-in at venues and will keep a record of who was in the vicinity at that specific time.  Should anyone test positive for Covid-19 at a later stage the app will send out an alert to notify the user with the steps to follow.
