邻近：打破疫情的秘诀
Proximity: a recipe to break the outbreak
摘要：
我们提出了一个移动应用程序解决方案，通过跟踪潜伏期内可能的感染来帮助遏制流行病爆发。我们考虑的是一种感染的特殊情况，这种感染主要通过近距离接触，通过呼吸道飞沫在人群中传播。这个智能手机应用程序将离线工作，并能够检测附近的其他设备，并以匿名和加密的方式列出所有交互。如果应用程序用户被检测为阳性，因此被认证为感染，应用程序会立即通知列表中的设备潜在的传染病，并建议开始自愿隔离并接受医学测试。我们相信此解决方案可能有用，尤其是在当前COVID-19疫情下，而且可用于防止未来发生类似事件。
英文摘要：
We present a mobile app solution to help the containment of an epidemic outbreak by keeping track of possible infections in the incubation period. We consider the particular case of an infection which primarily spreads among people through proximal contact, via respiratory droplets. This smartphone application will work offline and will be able to detect other devices in close proximity and list all the interactions in an anonymous and encrypted way. If an app user is tested positive and so is certified as infected, the application notifies immediately the potential contagion to the devices in the list and suggests to start a voluntary quarantine and undergo a medical test. We believe this solution may be useful in particular in the current COVID-19 pandemic and moreover could be used to prevent similar events in the future.
