Episode 39: iOS 13.5 Exposure Notification with Dr. Vivian Pugh and Zac Hall
The doctor is in.
For our thirty-ninth regular show, we are joined by once again by special guest and friend of the show Zac Hall and joined for the first time by very special guest Dr. Vivian Pugh, internal medicine physician (and Jake's amazing wife), for a discussion on contract tracing, how it has traditionally been done and what the new Exposure Notification API developed by Apple and Google can do to improve contact tracing for Covid-19 while maintaining user privacy. How does it work? Who is embracing it? Vivian and Zac help us understand from both a medical and technological perspective, and we hope you enjoy this fascinating discussion on a very timely subject.
