As of last week, the app had been downloaded over 8 million times, but only 29 users had voluntarily uploaded their tracking data after testing positive , according to Chen Tsung-yen, who also serves as deputy CECC chief.

That figure would account for less than 1 percent of the more- than 5,000 COVID-19 cases Taiwan has reported since May 15.

Not very promising

Indeed. But in the defense of the people who have been diagnosed positive, updating info on some random app has got to be pretty much the last thing on their mind. If they even know - I didn’t realize that had to be done until someone posted about a day or two ago.
