A Cluster Analysis of the Acceptance of a Contact Tracing App-The Identification of Profiles for the Italian Immuni Contact Tracing App.

ABSTRACT: Digital contact tracing apps have been introduced by governments as a strategy to limit the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Digital contact tracking is an alternative to traditional contact tracing performed by human tracers who have to reconstruct each contact an infected person had in the recent past by means of interviews.
