Apparently the new NHS COVID-19 app will launch on the 24^th of September, it is to include a QR code to be displayed at venues, enabling the easy collection of contact details for all attendees, see here.

In a nutshell, “When someone enters a venue and scans an official QR poster, the venue information will be logged on the user’s phone. This information will stay on a user’s phone for 21 days and if during that time a coronavirus outbreak is identified at a location, the venue ID in question will be sent to all devices. The device will check if users have been at that location and if the app finds a match, users may get an alert with advice on what to do based on the level of risk.”
