Give bluetooth smart watches to people without smartphones to bluetooth contact tracking can work.

Contact tracing is crucial to stop any isolated outbreak being quickly stopped. A bluetooth contact tracing app using mobile phones should be used and smart watches or similar bluetooth devices given out to those who do not have them. This would only be for a year or so until a vaccine or other medicine fix is available. You would not be allowed out without such a device. Bluetooth would automatically ping other devices and the data could be kept for twenty one days. An outbreak would be quickly contained. Would strongly suggest using Apple or Google app. Apple watches or similar smart devices work well. Would suggest to Apple that instead of future tech tax or large corp tax for overseas companies, they pay this now by supplying kit to fix contact tracing in Scotland.

Why the contribution is important

Need to end lockdown asap before social and economic meltdown. Isolating and containment of any outbreak is crucial to ending lockdown.
