When will I get a notification?

You will get a notification if:

• someone changes their status in the CoronaMelder app to positive (this can only be done with the help of the GGD);
• and you have been near that person in the past few days,
• and you were near that person for at least 15 minutes.

For example, you could have been:

• in a café, restaurant or bar with other people;
• in a shop;
• waiting in a queue;
• travelling somewhere;
• taking part in sporting activities;
• at work;
• at school. You will receive a notification afterwards.

If someone cycled past you in the street, for example, you will not receive a notification because you were only near each other for a short time.
