Korea has kept case transmission below 1,200/day (and is currently around 400/day) so is an example of the kind of relatively low level that makes such detailed contact tracing possible. Even without a vaccine they have not needed a national lockdown. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a big step up from the contact tracing we do & much closer to what happens in South Korea & Japan. But impossible with current high levels of transmission. Hence the critical importance of getting case levels down well below the current c 20k/day before ending lockdown. — PolitiTweet.org

So it seems a sensible approach to learn from. I asked @didoharding the precise level of cases at which enhanced contact tracing becomes possible & she was unsure. But conditions here are different to Korea so case rate at which this becomes possible is unlikely to be the same. — PolitiTweet.org
