At the beginning of the pandemic I said to myself there must be something I could do to help, what can I do? Should I volunteer to do this? Should I volunteer to do that?”
While businesses were plunged into the unknown Alan’s company, Houston Productivity Solutions got thinking, developing a prototype QR code to be used for combatting Covid-19 in the community.
“We wanted contact tracing to be adopted rapidly. With the QR code, all you need is a piece of paper and all you need is a mobile phone.”
Jeffrey Tam started working for Alan just before the pandemic in March 2020 and helped devise a prototype for the tracing technology.
“The first prototype failed. But Alan wouldn’t say ‘oh you’ve spent enough, stop there’ he said ‘you must come up with an easier solution’. We really appreciated and it was not an easy decision for him. Even during that time he stepped up I think as the leader of the company to say it’s not just about the money, ‘let’s do something for New Zealand’.”

2021-09-16 at 2:33 AM UTCQR tracing is shit tier. That seems to be as far as your inspirational mal-asian coders got. Some QR based proof of concept.
They came out with bluetooth ID tracing (try a BLE scanner app in a public place, and be amazed) but that was also a shitty (but scary) technology. Reality is covid moves too quickly for us to trace. Corona viruses are just common colds and flus, and they move way too quickly and randomly for us to respond to. The new approach is simple herd immunity, dose everyone with the vaccine, and wait for a certain proportion of them to get the virus naturally and acquire natural immunity.
It's the only way to treat a disease that has about the same risk profile as the common cold/a flu. -
