The bracelet would facilitate 3 functions; screening on a population level, digital contact tracing and real-time immunity status tracking. The bracelet would employ the IoT to transfer data over a network to an interactive web-based dashboard that tracks COVID-19 in real-time. If an individual then tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the database could automatically trace back anyone they had come in contact with in the past 14 days using a GPS feature (described below). In this instance, the biometric bracelet's GPS feature would continuously track movements of individuals within a geographical area and communicate back to the Covid-19 database platform saving input on the population whereabouts at each timepoint. As the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread, some Privacy Commissioners are lifting data restrictions for health officials to keep track of the outbreak. ./cache/cord-297197-klr208kp.txt ./txt/cord-297197-klr208kp.txt
