ABSTRACT
This article discusses the (emergency) measures introduced or activated by governments as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, and which (un)lawfully restrict the fundamental freedoms of citizens to combat further spread of the virus. In this context, the focus is on the consequences of the introduction of tracking and contact identification, on the “corona-notification application”, legitimized as a “scaling tool”, and on the recommendations, guidelines and legislation surrounding the use of this corona app. © 2021 Editions Weblaw.
