In other words, Bluetooth’s inaccuracy may not be a problem for typical applications (connecting to that friend’s speaker, for example), but certainly could be for purposes of determining exposure to a pathogen.

In addition to RSSI uncertainty, you will have the path loss variation. If there is an obstacle, like a human body, between your BLE device and the detected one, there may be some 70dB of attenuation of the signal at 1m (3ft; e.g. in a crowd) but in free space this may well correspond to 10m (30ft)
