This recent New York Times article about contact tracing raises a few issues.
First, it is interesting how people are offended at disclosing their presence at a party but I have not heard about difficulties in contact tracing for reportable sexually transmitted disease (of note, STD tracing experts are now working on COVID-19 tracing).
Second, although I understand (but don't approve) of people going to large parties even though prohibited, I cannot understand people who know they are sick going to these parties:
* The party’s host, who was showing signs of being sick at the time, later tested positive for the virus
* The first person from the party identified with the disease, was coughing and not wearing a face covering at the event.
What should we do to prevent sick people from going out in public?
