Can someone help me out. I'm struggling to understand track and trace. European country's are all trying to develope there own app and one that works. Don't country's like Korea and China already have these apps that work?

A new app designed by Apple and Google will be ready by Autumn, or so they say.

There's no cover up.


China recorded a tenfold surge in infections classed as flu at the end of last year, a study has found, suggesting that the coronavirus may have already spread to thousands of people and was being misdiagnosed.

The health authorities reported 1.2 million cases of influenza in December, compared with 130,442 recorded in the same month in 2018. The figure was also nearly twice that of the previous year’s peak month for flu in January, when 608,511 cases were registered.

The figures published by China’s Centre for Disease Control and Prevention were highlighted by SindoInsider, a Taiwanese consultancy group, which said that the huge increase suggested that the virus was being diagnosed as flu in the weeks before China notified the World Health Organisation (WHO) on
