I notice at the NSW 11am Covid conference contact tracing is rarely mentioned.
Its all about vaccines,

A journalist also asked why don't they require security guards at supermarkets to
ensure social distancing etc and the answer if I heard correctly was that having concierges adds to the
number of people at the centre which is not recommended. I thought what the heck is going on.
Seems to be an unwillingness to have supermarkets that are making a fortune during the pandemic
add security guards to encourage/ensure compliance with the restrictions including mask wearing
and social distancing.

Given the high level of cases infectious in the community, it does appear that the contact tracing is struggling
to find all those who have been exposed and need to go into isolation. Thankfully testing is giving an idea of the
extent of the problem, however, it is unlikely that all those infected are turning up for testing so case numbers are
bound to be far higher than those identifird by testing. They are the problem because they could be spreading
the virus among households or at work.

NSW is in dire straits all because they failed to go hard early enough in the outbreak. Quarantine failure which
even caused the NSW outbreak to be exported to other States including Victoria. Victoria thankfully appears at
this stage to have it under control.
