July 27, 2020 – The next time you get a call from an unfamiliar number on your phone, you may want to take the call. It might be a contact tracer.

An important component in the fight against COVID-19 is contact tracing, where those who have been around someone who has recently tested positive are notified that they may have been exposed.

If you are contacted, the caller will discuss the potential risk and ask you to self-quarantine for 14 days.
