The article describes an application used in Singapore. "Dubbed TraceTogether, the app is able to identify people who have been in close proximity - within 2m for at least 30 minutes - to coronavirus patients using wireless Bluetooth technology"

Thank you @andreiyurkevich -- do you think we should create a /research folder where we can maintain a list of these apps?

@cankisagun I strongly advocate for keeping all resources on the same platform. Copy all the resources on that Google Doc and move it to a doc on this repo. The link above will get lost in a sea of issues...
