If your goal is to open up and just focus care/risk mitigation efforts on those who are infected and/or most vulnerable, then contact tracing should be part of that. Otherwise, how do you know who to focus on?

And I don't understand the argument that contact tracing is unconstitutional. Of course the details will matter, but public health and safety is a well-recognized justification for extraordinary government action.

So utterly stupid . When a disease has spread to tens of millions of people, contact tracing is quite literally pointless. You contact trace at the BEGINNING. Just stop with the FB sloganeering.

Sure, no issue

If say 0.5% of ppl infected.
Let's say they do great random testing catch 1 in 10 cases.

1 in 2000 people who are out in society would trigger notifications each week.

How many ppl in Walmart with you?
Few hundred?

Most people would be notified of potential contact on a weekly basis.

It would just stoke panic.
