The COVIDSafe app has been designed by the Australian Government to help minimise and trace the spread of COVID-19. The app will enable rapid contact with people who have had at least 15 minutes contact with a person known to have contracted the virus to provide tailored contact tracing and tailored advice about self-isolation.
We know that people with cancer may need to take extra precautions to reduce their risk of contracting COVID-19. By downloading the APP friends and family members of people with cancer will know they have been in contact with the virus and stay away from the at-risk person with cancer.
If you are a person with cancer, the COVIDSafe app will help you to know if you may have come into contact with someone who has COVID-19 so that you will be able to take additional precautions and pursue any necessary follow up, as soon as possible. For more information and to download the app
