Tracing plan stalls

Tracing plan stalls

A proposal by US airlines to collect contract tracing information on inbound passengers is unlikely to proceed this year, according to a report from news agency Reuters.

The US Centers for Disease Control has been conducting talks with major carriers and officials from the Trump administration, in an effort to mandate the collection and reporting of details which would allow contact tracing of arrivals in the USA to aid in coronavirus containment efforts and boost consumer confidence.

However, privacy concerns raised during a White House meeting last week now appear to have kiboshed the plan.
