Stop COVID Spread in NY.
This is the official app of New York State, run by the NYS Department of Health side by side with New Yorks comprehensive COVID-19 contact tracing effort. Its goal is to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 amongst NYs diverse communities by:
1. Alerting you if a sick person spends 10 mins or more within 6 feet of you, because this puts you at a high risk of catching the coronavirus.
2. Letting you to contribute to the health and safety of your community by alerting others if you yourself test positive, WITHOUT REVEALING YOUR IDENTITY TO ANYONE!
