Benjamin Mayo, 9to5Mac:
Apple has launched a portal for hospitals, healthcare providers and businesses to register as a COVID-19 testing location. Apple will review the application and when approved, the location will start appearing on Apple Maps.
The testing locations will appear with a red medical glyph icon, and a special banner in the Apple Maps card.
This will become very important as we start easing lockdown restrictions. I can imagine situations where an all-clear is required before you are allowed into densely populated areas. This is an incredibly complex problem to solve.
Will we reach a point where our iPhone broadcasts our COVID-19 status to allow us back into work, or into, say, a sporting event? Privacy concerns abound. Surreal times.
