The government can just use this to track down people. And if it's a case of a known infected person visiting a public area, just make public announcements of where they went and request people who were in the same area at the same time to get tested. Manual tracking (which we should be doing as well) is very labor intensive to scale. That's viable at a certain level of infection, but if that's all we're using we're going to have to stay locked down for quite a while until things are down to a manageable level. We also have a very short window to notify people before they become contagious (it appears that people are contagious ~2 days before becoming symptomatic and the average incubation period is 5 days; combined with the time it takes for someone to get tested, that's not a lot of time to act). --- Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:937597736] in Politics C...
