[Contact Journal] Add a button to the contact journal to add a self test

Open jucktnich opened this issue 3 years ago • 16 comments

Current Implementation

Currently you can't add selftests to the contact journal.

Suggested Enhancement

Make it possible to add a selftest to the contact journal with a timestamp.

Expected Benefits

Let the Gesundheitsamt know, that you tested you negativ back than and you probably wasn't infective.

Let the Gesundheitsamt know, that you tested you negativ back than and you probably wasn't infective.

I like your idea, however I'd like to note that to my knowledge, generally, self and rapid antigen tests only indicate an infection a few days after the infected person was already infective, and on the first day after symptom onset (PCR tests would be able to detect an infection much sooner). I've heard about that here: https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/84-Nicht-auf-Tests-und-Impfungen-verlassen,audio869676.html (00:48:09 Diagnostik-Lücke bei Schnelltests)

This may be so, but I think that selftests do have a 95% rate to be truly negative, so I think the Gesundheitsamt can f.e. inform the contact persons, but not quarantine them.

I like the idea. The information could be used by the GA to prioritize contact tracing in times of scarce resources (like now). They know about the constraints of that information, so there is no harm in providing an easy way to add that. Also it could remind people to do regular rapid tests. It could even be a cool idea to add notification reminders about such tests to the app.

Hey @jucktnich ,

Thank you for your request. We have added this issue to our internal Jira system (tracking ID: EXPOSUREAPP-4926). The developers and the RKI will have a look and decide if and how the feature will be implemented. We will notify you on Github if we have more information from the development team that we can share.

If I interpret this PR right, something like this will be included in version 2.4: https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2749

Is this intended for approved tests (qr-code/tan) and/or for not approved tests (via a button for e.g. self tests)?

jucktnich avatar May 21 '21 15:05 jucktnich

@jucktnich I assume only for tests that have been transferred via the in-app system to register tests, but that's only an assumption because it's way to early (for me) to tell from the code (although there are some hints like this which my assumption is based on).

If my assumption is true your proposal wouldn't get implemented in the way you wanted it. But I think it still would be a nice enhancement.

Ein-Tim avatar May 21 '21 15:05 Ein-Tim

Yeah would be still a nice enhancement, and the way to integrate other tests wouldn't be as long

jucktnich avatar May 21 '21 15:05 jucktnich

@Ein-Tim what does this code say to you? I didn't found a hint for an assumption.

jucktnich avatar May 21 '21 15:05 jucktnich

@jucktnich Like this line: https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2749/files#diff-f301e6a176659086bbf938a96ad16d9dc0394d6e0f793c110bd7162391d94347R497 It adds the CoronaTestType to the contact journal, "CoronaTestType" defines either PCR or RAT in the current implementation, for example in the data donation.

Ah yeah, but not limited too. Probably misunderstood your post above 😅

jucktnich avatar May 21 '21 19:05 jucktnich

Also Android is in preparation: see https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/pull/3238 https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/pull/3258

Hello everyone,

This has been integrated into the current CWA release 2.4.

Not fully, cause you can't add selftests.

jucktnich avatar Jun 27 '21 17:06 jucktnich

Since @jucktnich does not consider this as implemented, please remove the Fix 2.4 label here.

Ein-Tim avatar Aug 31 '21 22:08 Ein-Tim

Same here, please remove the Fix 2.4 label from this issue. The author does not consider it as implemented. Thank you!
