在传染病的流行病学调查中，通过确定患者的途径对接触者进行调查、分类、跟踪和管理，对于预防疾病的进一步传播具有重要意义。然而，当仅通过与患者的代理访谈进行调查时，可能会出现先前活动中的遗漏和错误。为了克服这些局限性，在最近进行的2019冠状病毒感染接触者调查中，使用了客观验证患者主张的方法（医疗设施记录、全球定位系统、银行卡交易、闭路电视）。(c) 2020年韩国疾病控制和预防中心。这是一篇基于CC BY-NC-ND许可（http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/）的开放获取文章。
In the epidemiological investigation of an infectious disease, investigating, classifying, tracking, and managing contacts by identifying the patient's route are important for preventing further transmission of the disease. However, omissions and errors in previous activities can occur when the investigation is performed through only a proxy interview with the patient. To overcome these limitations, methods that can objectively verify the patient's claims (medical facility records, Global Positioning System, card transactions, and closed-circuit television) were used for the recent ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 contact investigations in South Korea.
