Does "they require" mean "the apps require"? Or does it refer to "the strategies require"?
=======================
In the toolkit of strategies to stop the spread of SARS-CoV-2, more countries are reaching for smartphone apps. When phones with such an app are close together, they exchange information — in some cases creating a log of who a phone’s owner has been near. These ‘contacts’ will be alerted if they have been close to an infected person. Such apps can complement a country’s overall COVID-19 control strategies — including testing, contact tracing, isolation and social distancing — but they cannot serve as a replacement for them, or the thousands of contact-tracing teams they require.
