Quantifying SARS-CoV-2 transmission suggests epidemic control with digital contact tracing

We conclude that viral spread is too fast to be contained by manual contact tracing, but could be controlled if this process was faster, more efficient and happened at scale. A contact-tracing App which builds a memory of proximity contacts and immediately notifies contacts of positive cases can achieve epidemic control if used by enough people
So it's official now. I wonder how long it takes before we're all required (or forced) to install such an app.
