“Employers have to understand what and how apps use information, and continue to monitor their use.” —Karen Mandelbaum, Senior Counsel

“A comprehensive method of contact tracing is needed to get people back to work and the economy moving, but it is important to contact trace for the limited intended purpose of reducing COVID-19 infection risks.” —Jessika Tuazon, Associate
