As per news report of Indian Express, aside from this data, the developers of the app are also working to check the usefulness of their contact history algorithms. In conjunction with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the National Center for Disease Control (NCDC), “on-ground checking” of Aarogya Setu data will be used to assess how many people deemed high-risk by the mobile app tested positive for the coronavirus.
