Ireland's attempt stands out.
NearForm never pitched itself as a government partner on contact tracing — instead, it was approached by the Irish Health Service Executive in March, Harte said. That prototype showed how the app would look to users, but NearForm still had to actually build the crucial contact-tracing tech.
