[DOCS] Digital Health Checklist

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Please fill out this template to give us as much information as possible to consider/implement this update.

Summary

I've been taking a course called 'Fairness and Ethics in Digital Health' at columbia and it has made me more conscious of this subject.

I reached out to the ReCODE.Health at UCSD to help me in my course project, but now I think we should use their framework while we build and develop this application. One can use this form: https://forms.gle/HRySytrptZjvzpJ28

We should have our results on our website and in our README for transparency and we can update it.

Motivation

We need to be socially responsible. And it'll help us while we develop to develop an ethical app.

Possible Alternatives

We could not do it, we could do it internally and not show it, or ignore following this and wing it. Though I think doing this will help us build trust and transparency.

Just for clarity, which results are we going to show in the README? Totally agree that we want to be open and ethical, just curious

As I understand it, this would be an ongoing "score card" to measure development of the application against, ensuring we follow standards in the Digital Health Checklist based on their categories of Privacy, Access & Usability, Data Management, Risks & Benefits.

It might be a nice way to visually display and reinforce why Blockstack was chosen as the main technology platform, and give us a way to highlight the strengths of CoronaTracker against other projects.
