Purely anecdotal:

Friend got tested for #COVID19 on Thursday.

Friend notified they are positive today.

Symptoms to test: One day
Test to result: Two says

If contact tracing begins tomorrow, then the system is working as well as could be expected - in this case.

(Yes, my friend is doing OK. I would not have tweeted if they were not.)

Follow up: My friend received a contact-tracing call the day after they got their positive test result.

In this case, what Roussin said on Thursday is accurate: Contact tracing is catching up.

Effective Friday, Manitoba is enacting a household-only socialization rule.

You may only socialize indoors with people you live with, with some exceptions. #COVID19

Exceptions:

- Health-care, personal care or home care
- Parent or guardians can visit a child who doesn't live with that child
- Child care
- Tutoring or other education
- Construction, renovations, repairs, maintenance
- deliveries
- Real estate or moving
- Emergency response

Retail stores allowed to remain open must now sell essential goods only.

Non-essential goods must be cordoned off or otherwise not available for sale.

Public service announcement: famous people tend to be far less interesting than regular folks.

This is not populist pandering. Nor is it faux-democratic anti-elitism.

There’s no ideology behind the statement.

It’s simple psychology ...

To start with, no one is raised to handle the concept of a public profile.

Truly famous people have to master with a very difficult act of figuring out where the boundaries lie between their public and private selves.
