Contact tracing for SARS-CoV-2: what can be learned from other conditions?

James Brown1, Kyle Ring2, Jacqui White3, Nicola E Mackie2, Ibrahim Abubakar4, Marc Lipman5.   

Abstract

Contact tracing is central to the public health response to COVID-19, but the approach taken has received criticism for failing to make enough of an impact on disease transmission. We discuss what can be learned from contact tracing in other infections, and how the natural history of COVID-19 should shape the strategies used. © Royal College of Physicians 2021.
