Tracers still call people who test positive, but no one outside their households, said Brenton Nesemeier, who manages COVID-19 case managers and field epidemiologists.“We realized that we needed to prioritize positive cases because they were ... the ones who were potentially out in the community, and they’re the ones with the most questions,” Nesemeier said.“In turn, they’re able to reach their contacts faster than we are because (people) will more likely answer a phone call from a friend,” he said.Nesemeier said there is no way to know if people are following through, but when North Dakota was doing full-fledged contact tracing, those who were willing to share information about their contacts often had already told them anyway.Pennelope Denson, a 19-year-old from Riverview, Michigan, near Detroit, said that when her boyfriend's mother and brother got sick and tested positive about two months ago, she got tested and advised everyone she had been around to do the same.It took nine days to find out she had contracted the virus, and two days after that, she got a call from a contact tracer at the Wayne County Health Department.

The tracer took only her father's information, Denson said, and told her to call anyone else she might have been around.She said her boyfriend's mother and brother never got a call from a tracer after they tested positive, “so nobody told me to quarantine, but I did it myself.”In Cole County, Missouri, which includes the capital of Jefferson City, when someone is tested, they're given a packet that includes information on reaching out to their own contacts if the results come back positive.Kristi Campbell, director of the county health department, announced the do-it-yourself effort last month, saying it was taking officials five to seven days to learn of positive tests and that tracers weren't always getting the information necessary to call people.“It is imperative that we get past the barriers of traditional contact tracing,” Campbell said in the televised announcement.
