Attention graduates there is a new job opportunity on the horizon. With increased COVID-19 testing the number of confirmed cases will increase, and the need for more contact tracing will also. Contact tracers track down people with a potentially contagious disease. The contact tracer can alert that person, who may not know they’ve been in contact with a corona virus patient, that they should self-quarantine and get tested. Currently, SCDHEC states that there are 230 contact tracers in , and they’re in the process of identifying another 770, for a total of 1,000 contact tracers in the state. For more information, visit www.scdhec.gov/fo rm/tracer.
