Speaking to reporters in Canberra on April 21, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison addressed privacy concerns about the yet-to-be-released COVID-19 contact tracing app called “COVID Trace,” and said the code will be published for transparency.

Morrison said it is an “important tool” to help track the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as coronavirus.
