[quote lurker101]@TheSunIsStillShining can you explain why you disagree with 1? Not being argumentative just curious because I thought it was a positive step in that if they contact one person in household it counts for all - my understanding of that is that if I test positive, and say I’ve been in contact with my boyfriend and 6 kids (don’t actually have any!) that if they call and speak to my boyfriend and he agrees to tell 6 kids to isolate that’s 7 contacts contacted which makes more sense to me than calling 7 times and asking to speak to a 2 year old. But I suspect I’ve probably misunderstood[/quote]
As far as I can tell the new methodology is to put the blame responsibility on 1 person. Imagine a house share. 5 ppl living together. I am one. How should I know what X has been up to? Or how should i know X's workplace contacts, etc.
Another scenario: family of 3, 1 teenage boy.
How can mum give contact info for H's colleagues? Do you really think mum knows all teenager's contacts (name/number/etc)? I know the names, approximately where they live, but that's it.
It's basically the same that they are doing in schools: outsourcing their work, but without ever paying the sub-contractors.
Please someone tell me I totally misunderstood how it works.
