Re: Download the F**king Menu

What I find frustrating is that no one really seems to be able to explain most of the infections.

That's due to inadequate tracing. If the caseload were low, they could do a genome test for each case. Read New Zealand's daily briefings, to see how tracing should be done.

Ditto stores with mask requirements and social distancing.

A recent study in Boston found that 20% of grocery clerks had Covid. Most were asymptomatic.

Don't discount the lack of super spreader event with safety. We just have not tracked.

am I missing a major cause?

1. Are people who test positive really quarantining for 14 days?

2. Those returning from abroad or another state are not tested.

3. A single negative reading does not mean somebody isn't infected. That person should be in managed isolation for 14 days. NZ tests on the 3rd and 12th days. If either test is positive, off to quarantine and the 14 day period begins over.

3a. That works if there isn't any Covid around to be picked up once the person is released from isolation. That's why eradication is the only viable strategy.

4. There's no tourist industry. Hotels are empty. They can be used for managed isolation - they need the money.
