We are talking about the confirmed positive cases, these people are all potential spreaders and are supposed to be closely monitored. This is a standard CDC playbook (lots of people I’ll, find out what’s common to them). The list you gave, if true, is total incompetence of e CDC to a level which has never been demonstrated before - in fact, the CDC has generally done well with their playbook even if it was a couple of weeks late (and we’re 10 weeks since I heard from a friend who works with the CDC that they’re watching it)
