Never mind former President Ronald Reagan’s warning of the most terrifying words in the English language — “I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.”
The contact tracer’s is far worse: I’m from the government, and I’m here to quarantine you.
This is the next step in the coronavirus fight; this is the path America is walking. Right now. From The Hill, in a piece titled, “A day in the life of America’s contact tracing army,” comes this quote of Kelsey Green, a contact tracer working for the Carroll County Health Department in Maryland:

All the original COVID stats were wrong, which means all the original hype was wrong, which SHOULD mean all the stuff we have been doing for the last last 6-8 weeks is wrong ... and now this! It’s just plain WRONG!

I saw a video of the Communists in Virginia pulling down a statue in Portsmouth. Many of the rioters were not wearing masks and I saw one couple without masks greet each other with hugs. How can they trace all of those contacts. Wonder if they catch the virus if they will go to a hospital or Republican doctor for treatment? Hmmmmm. So much lying and hypocracy abounds!

My local health clinic just sent me an email recommending I be tested for antibodies for Covid-19. Why should I? I’m healthy and that is all that matters!

Yeah, I'm thinking I'm not alone in being over the whole Coronavirus thingy. We sat in our homes, afraid to even go to the grocery store for months! We were told we can't go anywhere without a Mask. Now we hear a Mask is only necessary for Medical related Employees. Every day it's something different. Yesterday, the Little Nazi said we might have another round of the Virus in the Fall. Well, I'm just going to go on with my life. I do not wear a Mask anymore unless it is demanded for entry (which a few stores are still doing). I notice about half of the shoppers still wear a mask at the grocery store. If anyone asked me to come in for testing for antibodies, I would refuse. I don't want to be in anyone's Data Base! I just want to go back to my life and I hope Trump never, ever shuts down our government again at the request of some "so called" Expert! The only bright happening in this whole debacle is the fact I live in Florida so we were freed from our Lock Down May 1st! I feel for those in the Blue States who are still under the Thumb of their Dem Governors!

Bill Gates is in this up to his eyeballs and is making billions from it.
I had to have blood drawn yesterday for my annual physical - to check my cholesterol, liver function, etc, as I do every year. Now I’m wondering if my blood will be tested for CV19 without my consent. It was not listed on the orders from my GP, but that doesn’t mean that the clinic won’t do it anyway. If they do, will I have a legal leg to stand on?

Masks have become the symbol of compliance. Why doesn’t the medical community come out tell people that wearing a mask is useless protection and is jeopardizing their health?

I was concerned about the virus- it was a novella- new strain- but I followed numbers- and the numbers didn’t make sense.. and I am not a numbers person!
I also got angry- and pretty depressed- had to stop listening to the news 24/7 doom gloom.. then the over reaching oppression of blue state Governor..
The contract tracing is going to be enforced at hair salons.. we need to collect names,emails,cell numbers.. we should just for marketing anyway- but the reality is is someone gets sick/ we have the contact that day..
Once step closer to that national ID put in your skin..

At least we'll be left with election day when they don't give a rip who we are or where we come from.

We have rioters burning building to include churches, looting, the desecration of states, etc and months after this faux COVOD crisis, we still have governors trying to maximize their inner Stalin. I live in Virginia which is just as bad as Maryland but at least Northam doesn't do the 45 minutes press conferences like Hogan of MD did yesterday draining on a bout phase 2.

I'm afraid you're all missing the real danger here. This isn't just about COVID. Think where they're really going with this.
Once they set up their giant contact tracing army and they software and databases, how do you think it's really going to be used? Any nutty leftist governor/mayor or even some Karen who hates you for your politics can put you on a contact trace list and have you "quarantined". You could be merely harassed this way, or you could even be sent to a nursing home as people in NY were. Boxcars next, perhaps?
This is KGB level stuff, people. Wake up!

Frightening? This does not raise one hair on my arm. We are dealing with paranoid idiots and our only response should be laughter followed by a quick hang up, if we bother to answer the phone at all.

#7 - I've quit the mask two days ago. It occurred to me that - even after COVID has disappeared - governments will still be encouraging everyone to wear a mask and socially distance themselves because of all the other pathogens and microbes that we could be unknowingly exchanging. And most of the sheeple will think it's a good idea and go along with it. Not me. I'm done.

In 1940, people wore Svastika band on their arms. Today, people are ordered to wear masks in their faces. WAKE UP AMERICA.

This seems to me to be such a brazen and outright ignoring of the privacy rights of all Americans in the BoR and the Constitution. So many businesses already take contact information from people when a debit/credit card is used that this coming from the government just seems so suspicious and brazen. Especially if by standing on one's rights to not answer could involve legal action against that person. I might have nothing to hide and be as innocent as a newborn, but that doesn't mean I want government getting any extra information out of me that they have no right to.
Seems to me that since the basis of their actions involves public health, this should also be a serious violation of HIPPA as well.

Since I retired, I don't answer my phone. Friends and relatives leave a message and I return the call. We also NEVER answer the door if someone strange knocks on it! It's scary since I lost all of my guns in the boating accident...
