[quote=Anonymous]These apps are state, or in some cases, locality specific, and at least with the android ones, you can only have one active at a time. so while in this area it might be reasonable to have the VA, DC and (when they have one) MD apps enabled, that doesn't work. As noted in the article, the different systems don't inter-operate: "She added that right now, the D.C. system cannot communicate with the neighboring states, due to Virginia having a different software system and Maryland not having a contact-tracing system available for smartphones." So if the person next to you has the VA (or for anywhere else) one active and you have the DC one on you will *not* get notified if the VA person later reported a positive test into their app (which feeds into their state public health system). This is what comes from the lack of a national policy. [/quote]
