Bengio sounded pessimistic when asked about the chances of Quebec choosing MILAs COVID-19 application.

Its out of my hands, he said. If they want to make a decision, they should send us a sign soon. I think they will take the federal app. From a political point of view, the advantage is that the federal government has already taken the risks with the app. It wouldnt be a controversial decision.

In the meantime, with a second wave of infections now gathering strength, the researcher is bracing for a difficult autumn.

As a citizen, Im worried, he said. I have a mother who is elderly and could easily get the virus. As a society, I think were taking this a little lightly. I see people walking down the street who are not respecting distancing. The discipline we had back in April has pretty much melted down.
