My work is classified so I have to go to the office regularly. Me and my family tested positive for Covid I know it is because of coming to the office. I know other people in the office that are sick as well. Thankfully we are all recovering. Are there no contact tracing requirements for managers to conduct anymore? All I got was “thanks for letting me know” I am still doing work and I still don’t who got me sick or if I got anyone else sick. Very disappointed with how Covid is being handled here.

Supreme Court dismissed Biden's Presidential Order, so maybe now we all "put our hands in the air like we just don't care"?
You can file for a religious or medical exemption.
Dud they actually fire people who refused to get the shot?
HIPPA aside I'm sure the government would be interested in the general information (not names, just numbers of people and what programs) as it could affect contract product deliveries due to manpower shortages.
I’ve also noticed that they send the notifications only to managers of employees located in the area where someone had covid. The expectation is for them to share with their employees in that area, but many do not pass along the information which is unfortunate
They actually can’t share with anyone that you specifically have covid that’s against your health privacy rights. They are supposed to notify anyone in the area where you work via email that someone tested positive and to be more self conscious about symptoms. The only requirement they have for contact tracing is if your office was allowed to not wear masks, at that point they would want to know anyone you were in contact with for more than 15min, however bc of the vaccine requirement due date passing and the current requirements for everyone to wear masks the assumption is that everyone is vaccinated and wearing a mask which means they don't have to contact trace
