Modeling the effect of exposure notification and non-pharmaceutical interventions on COVID-19 transmission in Washington state

Abstract Contact tracing is increasingly used to combat COVID-19, and digital implementations are now being deployed, many based on Apple and Google’s Exposure Notification System. These systems utilize non-traditional smartphone-based technology, presenting challenges in understanding possible outc...
