Thanks a lot for your post, Urs! This is very noble of you to help your community to cope with this outbreak.. People do need that indeed. Seems like most people got really tired of this pandemic and they didn't approach the second wave as carefully and responsibly as the first wave. Hence we are seeing higher numbers.

It's bad in Russia too now. The numbers are much higher than they were back in the spring. What I've noticed that many people are neglecting the quarantine measures and don't even wear masks. My wife and I have been extremely careful limiting our social interactions, avoiding public transport and ordering takeout every other day, but still my wife got sick and went through a mild form of Corona.

We think that she got sick when she met two of her coworkers at a cafe (she went to cafes at most once a month during the pandemic). All of them were wearing masks and the waiters were too. But still the virus sneaked in somehow. Immediately after she'd gotten her positive result, she contacted her coworkers and let them know about her condition. But I don't think that there was an official list of my wife's contacts to attempt to trace the virus. Doesn't seem like the officials are trying to trace the virus in Russia. They didn't even tell me to stay at home. It was entirely up to me. I did self-isolate but I wouldn't be surprised that many people who were in a similar situation didn't do that. 

Perhaps, if there were corona tracing here, we'd be better off..
