Not a fan of contact tracing though. I don't need the government forcing some paperwork on me and then going after people I've been around and forcing things on them. As a responsible adult I can notify people that I've spent time around as I feel necessary and those they can take that information and make their own decisions about their health. If you found out you might have been exposed to the virus and had high risk parents, you can then decide to stay away from them on your own. Best of all the government nanny didn't have to tell you to.
yeah as far as I'm concerned it's a gross invasion of privacy, constitutional rights, HIPAA and illegal government surveillance without a warrant.
I didn't realize how bad it was until I was talking to someone who might had been around someone else who got a positive test.
It's creepy. Asymptomatic and test negative--sorry that's 14 days for you anyway. This 14 days is rough too, don't have your own room and a private bathroom and the "contact tracer" is supposed to confirm this. They don't like your situation, then "Social services, housing and other supportive services will be needed for those contacts who are unable to separate themselves from others in their current living situation." The government is supposed to check up on you daily to make sure you are checking your temperature and following the rules. It's really rough to read through and this applies to asymptomatic negative tested people too.
So yeah, if some tracer calls or shows up here it will be made quite clear they are not welcome and there will be zero information provided.
