Abstract

When dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial to know where people are becoming infected with the virus. This research project is collecting data on places of infection. Mobility data from selected people who have agreed to the tracking of their cell phone data and the use of this data for research purposes has been available almost without interruption since the beginning of the pandemic. These people are being asked whether and, if so, when they have had a Covid infection or received a positive test result. By linking this information with the mobility data, an attempt is being made to identify information on places of infection.
