This is one of those stories that you sit and ponder upon.
So for those who didn't know....the Bavarian government (the state guys) hyped up this Covid-19 testing business....via airports, autobahn entry, and railway situations as you enter Germany. If you came from any vacation site deemed a 'hot-zone' (Turkey for example)....you have to submit for a free test there at the entry point....period, end of story.
That was eight days ago.
From that initial opening session (Saturday)....they were supposed to turn the results around and notify folks within three days (figure Monday morning of last week).
Out of 40k folks....the Bavarians had to embarrassingly admit by Thursday morning....that the system wasn't working right. In 24 hours, they dragged in enough people to punch in the data and send out the notifications....either positive or negative.
I should note at this point....949 folks tested positive. You can imagine...by Friday....they'd already been home for a week.
So Focus brought up this topic here today.....from this group of 949 folks (who'd you admit it was REAL important to contact them)....so far, they haven't been able to find or talk to 46 of them.
On the scale of things, you'd think it was mighty important to find those 46 folks (a full 8 days after they'd been tested).
Private data giving them the name, address, email, and phone number? Yes. But no contact so far? Yeah, that's the odd thing.
What happened to the folks? Unknown. You can speculate on this. Maybe they took a week extra off, and went camping somewhere. Maybe they just don't answer their phone on weekends. Maybe they gave fake names/numbers to the test folks?
The police? They are engaged on this now but they have to be asking some stupid questions of the test folks....if maybe false names got into the process.
