德国推出病毒预警应用  

Virus warning app launched
Germany launched its official COVID-19 warning app which was now available for download to smartphones
the government announced on Tuesday.
Released by Germany's disease control agency Robert Koch Institute
the app informs citizens who had been in contact with an infected person in order to detect and break the chains of infection.
这款由德国疾控机构罗伯特·科赫研究所发布的应用会对接触过新冠感染者的市民发出警示，以便发现并打破感染链。
German Health Minister Jens Spahn stressed that the app was "not a panacea
not a free ride ticket
but it is an important additional tool in containing the pandemic."
Downloading and using the app was "a small step for each of us
but a big step in the fight against the pandemic
" said head of the Chancellery Helge Braun
adding that citizens could rely on high standards of data protection.
The app was based on a "decentralized sofare architecture" which stored data on the mobile phones of users instead of a central server.
