Contact tracing was one of the core public health strategies implemented during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this essay, we describe the rapid establishment of a volunteer contact tracing program in New Haven, Connecticut. We describe successes of the program and challenges that were faced. Going forward, contact tracing efforts can best be supported by increased funding to state and local health departments for a stable workforce and use of evidence-based technological innovations.
接触者追踪是 COVID-19 大流行最初几个月实施的核心公共卫生策略之一。在本文中，我们描述了在康涅狄格州纽黑文市迅速建立一个志愿者接触者追踪计划的过程。我们描述了该计划的成功之处和面临的挑战。展望未来，最好通过增加对州和地方卫生部门的资金投入，为稳定的劳动力队伍提供支持，并利用基于证据的技术创新，来支持接触者追踪工作。
