TAIPEI (The China Post) â Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC, ä¸å¤®æµè¡ç«æ ææ®ä¸å¿) Deputy Commander Chen Tsung-yen (é³å®å½¥) stated on Tuesday that the SMS system for contact tracing is only an aid in controlling the coronavirus.
According to Chen, although the SMS system provides a large amount of information, the accuracy and specificity of the user’s whereabouts are not very high.
The system only provides the location and the entry time and does not show the duration of stay and the people who are at risk of infection, Chen added.
