How to use tracing in a sentence?

1. Karine Jean-Pierre:

   And the CDC has begun full contact tracing.

2. Howard Koh:

   What's more, pushing for' herd immunity' now would completely upend the months of work United States has done so far in efforts to control the virus, instead of pushing for herd immunity, United States must double down on the public health tools at our disposal -- including universal mask wearing, widespread testing, and contract tracing -- until a vaccine and more effective therapeutics become available.

3. David Coburn:

   This is unfortunate, but luckily Coach is feeling fine, we are proceeding with our Covid protocols as we would with any other case. Coach is isolated, and university tracing staff is handling the contact tracing as they normally do. We will continue to test staff and student-athletes as we have been.

4. Brian Hainline:

   When we started talking about return to sport in April, we were envisioning that there would be a continued downward trajectory of Covid-19 new infections and deaths -- that there would be a national surveillance system, national testing and national contact tracing -- that would allow us to really navigate this pandemic into re-socializing both in sport and in the rest of society, and that hasn't happened.

5. Leana Wen:

   We are seeing cases of a number of infections going in exactly the wrong direction. They're increasing, and we don't have the capabilities we need, the testing, the tracing, all these efforts that require a national coordinated presence, we don't have that in place. And the last thing we want is to give the American people the idea that we have the virus under control, when actually nothing about the virus has changed.
