Contact tracing: an old job with new urgency While contact tracing is a new concept to many Americans, public health departments have depended on tracers for decades to control the spread of contagious diseases from syphilis to tuberculosis to HIV. Or, for training, you can register for a free six-hour Coursera tracing course, developed by the Bloomberg School of Public Health at John’s Hopkins University. The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials also offers a free three-hour online course on contact tracing.
The job requires persistence, too, notes Ruebush: “It takes a few calls to track down some contacts.” She likens the job to detective work, since the list of someone’s contacts can range from a handful to more than five dozen.
