Three U.S States including Alabama, North Dakota and South Carolina have declared that they will be utilizing the app in a bid to slow down the spread of the virus while the NHS has rejected the app while prioritizing the UK version of contact tracing app which utilizes a centralized matching system to show alert of other people’s coronavirus status.
