Don’t answer your phone if you don’t know the number.

2nd degree contacts and beyond aren't recommended to isolate, so only your first 5 are only the shelf.

I wish they'd pushed through liability protections in the first relief bill.
It's going to be a mess without it. Businesses will be obliged to go crazy, trying to ensure zero risk.

Only really is effective when there are a small number of cases and you can stop something before it gets going. At this point probably not as useful.

Germans as bratwurst, but this guy (who is probably an actual liberal) calls what's happening today play by play.

Contact Tracing was developed in part by Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Bill Gates foundation. It is currently being taught as part of Stem and PLTW programs in schools that are certified to teach the programs.
In reality, contact tracing has been outbreak containment 101 since before Fauci and Gates were born.

What would be the suit? Which part do you believe is non-voluntary? Or perhaps I should ask. How do you think contact tracing has historically worked in the US?

Because when an individual is sick and is treated by a doctor or hospital, he/she has rights to not disclose that info to anybody. That information is only between you and your doctor. You seriously don't think a good attorney will find a way to make a lawsuit behind this? Hell, I bet some of our local tv attorneys could come up with something.

You're not going to force everyone to self quarantine because they may have come in contact with someone who was in contact with someone who may have been exposed. Why the frick does it matter.

My understanding is that the contact tracing in the US is entirely voluntary. Indeed there is no existing mechanism to induce a person to disclose anyway. The way it works at its simplest, is the COVID+ person tells the tracer the people he's had sustained contact with and then that person just makes phone calls and asks the contacted to come in to get tested, thus starting the process over again. There is no compulsion anywhere in the process.
Now Korea has these apps that they put on phone to track you and id as positive and then let other people know a positive person is near if they have the same app. An app like that might run into HIPAA issues, though I've been surprised at how many regulations have fallen/been ignored in the hospital world in the last month or so.

Exactly what I'm talking about. There will be a lawsuit or two or three behind the loosening up of those HIPAA rights. The fact that a third party would know that you tested positive for Covid 19 is absolutely a violation.

On the one hand, I hear you. On the other, HIPAA is only semi-operative right now with respect to COVID. That's just facts. I am to understand that there as been some guidance offered that give us some cover on that point, but I haven't read it.
Anyway, I think for a person to participate in contact tracing they'd have to consent to certain disclosures. I think. They did this with HIV btw and that's way more sensitive. I figure they know there way around the law.
