According to reports, the Japanese government will provide over 2.000 iPhones to cruise ship passengers Diamond Princess which remains stuck in Japan.
Ο Coronavirus has affected the world in many ways. In the field of technology, several companies face a variety of problems, and major exhibitions such as MWC 2020 are canceled. However, the Japanese Ministry of Health has found the strangest way to "involve" iPhones in the Coronavirus epidemic.
Free smartphones?
According to reports, the Japanese government will provide more than 2.000 iPhone to the passengers of the cruise ship Diamond Princess which remains stuck in Japan.
In particular, the government will ensure that every passenger cabin and staff room has an iPhone. The reason the Japanese government offers these smartphones is so that passengers can have them access to the application of the Ministry of Healthto communicate with doctors.
Another reason why these iPhones are provided to passengers is because many can not download the Ministry of Health application from app stores because their smartphones have been purchased. from another country.
The ship was quarantined last week because cases of the virus were detected. To date, it has been confirmed that over 100 passengers have been infected with Coronavirus.
The scenario that the passengers will return the iPhones in the future is considered probable. But given the rate at which the virus is transmitted and the ease with which it is transmitted, it seems unlikely that smartphones will be used outside the ship, at least before they are disinfected.
