It would have been really easy to have a system that auto calculated dates based on diagnosis eg. Case diagnosed dd/mm/yy close contacts to be tested +x days (provide date), quarantine while waiting for results etc.Dodge you make it sound easy but it rarely is in the real world. COVID for example survives on a surface, and the infected person goes through a wide scale of infectiousness that may also have spanned multiple visits to the premise, while others may have also had multiple visits to the facility with varying cardinalities of exposure.
It's a horrible problem to solve, and the medicos have to walk a tightrope made from the Hippocratic oath which states "Do no harm", including not worry people when they do not have to be worried, and not enabling the prosecution of people who do not warrant prosecution. They don't get to operate on the "Smeller is the Fella" rule of investigation and detection like the media does regularly!
