Japan contact tracing app "COCOA" launches this week using Microsoft to build it

Notice the politics infused into all decisions:
"We wanted to introduce the app when the sense of urgency was high among
the public"

It's the ignorati who clamor to be tracked everywhere they go!
o Yet more evidence government sponsored apps are based on pure fear.

Microsoft built Japan's contact-tracing app using Apple and Google tech

"According to the University of Oxford, this type of app needs to be used
by 60 percent of the population to be useful. In countries that adopted
contact-tracing apps early on, such as Singapore and Iceland, that figure
stands at around just 40 percent."

HINT: There's a reason the WHO needed to shove the asymptomatic elephant
out of the room when claiming we needed to "focus on contact tracing".
--
Of course, the WHO "claims" that asymptomatic transmission is "very rare";
hence, contact tracing is something the WHO wants governments to focus on!
