Critics argue along the line: "We can't let government infringe civil liberties without good data showing it's justified." OK. To which I say: Do you want the government to get good data by tracking your phone 24/7? To which they say: "No, this would infringe civil liberties."

The point is that there’s no way we can really KNOW, even with surveillance. It’s a virus. It doesn’t announce itself. So then why would we punish people based on no information that they are at fault for the spread. It’s un-American.

In an ideal world of contact tracing, it would be. But there are areas in the country where the virus has spread too quickly that contact tracers have been overwhelmed. In some areas they have given up because it is spreading so quickly.

Contact tracing is too hard. But asking if someone wore a mask or attended a concert, for example, should be part of the protocol.

Apparently not or at least not enough, as likely outbreak location can only be identified for a very small subset of cases. Which doesn't surprise me - CA had 15,000 new cases just yesterday, how many health office workers would you need to call them up?https://twitter.com/AndreasShrugged/status/1331153720965558273 …

The process I would use is asking a dozen questions of each patient when they get tested, before knowing results. 1. Did you eat at a restaurant in the past week? Etc.
