Social isolation has been one of the measures most used by the state government and the municipalities to stop the spread of the coronavirus among the population. The reasoning is that the longer people stay home, the less likely it is that the virus will spread through the streets.
On April 24, Goiás Governor Ronaldo Caiado (DEM) admitted the idea of tightening social isolation and closing all non-essential trade again. “What we are seeing now is a mayor in dispute with the other who publishes more [o comércio]. I want to ask everyone for their understanding at this time. Don’t play. We can throw a 40-day job on the floor, “said Caiado.
En Loco claims that data collection is only done with permission from app users. In addition, it says that information such as name, ID or CPF is not transmitted. In Goiás, data from 2 million cell phones were analyzed.
The company also reports that it also uses geometric measurements, called polygons, established by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), to measure the location of the population’s cell phones.
