So the app seems kind of useless if a few seconds could be enough to transmit the disease.Outdoor transmission is practically unheard of. 15 minutes consecutive or cumulative is supposedly the magic number, so you safe Captn!
The only time I'm in close proximity to someone outside of my household for more than fifteen minutes is when I'm standing in line to pick up a package at the Post Office.
It doesn't seem the tracker is useful for most citizens in Hawaii at this time, and once vaccinations are widespread it may quietly disappear.
I'm not concerned about being "stalked" by the government. Be my guest, if you somehow mistakenly think it's worthwhile. That wouldn't last for long, for sure!
