Associated Press: WA Notify App Is Alerting Users Of Virus Exposures
About 1.6 million people have activated or downloaded the WA Notify smartphone app created to notify people if they may have been exposed to the coronavirus, the state Department of Health said this week.
The app is sending notifications to people who may have been exposed, but the state does not have reliable data on how many times the app has been used to alert people or on how many people have been alerted, The Seattle Times reported.
