It doesn't mean I expect the name, email and phone of the person who was infected, but I certainly deserve to know if I was exposed, if this information is made available to, or known by United, or any business for that matter.
Absolutely not. Uh. False positives anyone. And plenty of those.

Can you imagine getting an email from an airline, any airline - that said - you were seating near a positive case.

Can you imagine the lawsuits. Uh - what is near? 3 rows. Were they next to me? Behind me? 3 rows over but other aisle?

That’s why no business will get into the business of contact tracing. That’s why it’s left to local health authorities
