When avid QR code scanner Reimer Freitag witnessed a courier driver deliver a package to a Wellington library and leave again, without scanning in, it made him wonder if companies are doing enough to protect their staff from the risk of spreading Covid-19. Roughly half a million QR code scans are being recorded on the NZ Covid Tracer app, down from a high of 2.5 million per day in early September. Freitag said he felt like he was part of the small portion of New Zealanders who still diligently scanned into places they visited using the Covid Tracer app.
