The coming days and weeks, the government and the health authorities in denmark, invest a lot of effort and even more money to get you to download the new corona-smitteapp called 'contagion|stop'.

It's just been launched at a news conference with health and ældreminister Magnus Heunicke (S) and shall operate as an anonymous digital detective, who can warn, if you have been near an infected. And there is the need to get the danes to use the app.

the Experience of other countries, which have launched similar apps, shows, however, that the app get it hard. Among others on the Island, where the app otherwise is relatively widespread in the population, has the effect namely been extremely limited.
