Awesome Chat: Novid
We talk with Po-Shen Loh, the founder of the Novid app. We talk about how Novid uses a network effect theory mixed with ultrasonic sound to communicate with other users to provide anonymous contact tracing for Covid-19 contact notifications. We talk about the technology as it compares to the Android and iOS Covid-19 API, new features to add points of relation to "forecast" Coronavirus outbreaks, and how the app may only need 10% adoption to be effective.
