Answer 1

Yes, offcourse but the problem here is the sampling with mobile phone is not that accurate as comparing to labs test.The past few weeks have been a massive increase in interest in mobile phone surveys as reserchers and operational teams aim to better understand the various impacts of the covid 19 pandemic.In mobile phone the survey can be done by some app that aaps are program to ask questions related to the symtoms of covid.And in most of the countries and cities this type of virtual sampling have been taken by the private or goverment controlled applications like arogya setu indian aaplication avilable on android and ios.These applications can give you notification if have resigstered in that and given all the answers to the questions so, the notification of any person who also loged in that apps who intract or passes from near you the application gives notification about that.Basically its helpull in railway station and airpost or malls and streets.And those who suffers from covid doctors upload details about that family and members and that application is automatically gives you notification which areas are highly contaminated by covid positive people so these are the sampling tests is done without sampling.
