Contact tracing identifies people who may be at risk from COVID-19 because they were in close contact with someone who has the virus. By voluntarily choosing to use the Protect Scotland app you will help our NHS by:
-
Reducing the time it takes to alert you if you come into close contact with another app user that tests positive,
-
Alerting other app users that you might have forgotten you were in close contact with,
-
Allowing Test and Protect anonymously to alert people who don’t know each other.
