The COVID app in the UK is being changed so that less people are notified to self-isolate if they've been in contact!
The app will now ping people who you've been in contact with 2 days before testing positive, this has been changed from 5 days prior. This comes following a statement where Health Secretary Sajid Javid said:
"it will reduce self-isolation disruption and protect those at risk"
This is an experiment and will continue to rely on people to follow the guidelines.
