Contact tracers
Contact tracing is a job that has actually existed for decades before COVID-19 arrived and is an essential part of tracking and slowing the spread of many viruses. The need for contact tracers has increased recently though, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Contact tracers must have good communication skills and be detail-oriented as they’ll need to record and report important data, quickly. They’ll be in charge of communicating with those who have come in contact with the virus, providing instructions on self-quarantining, and recommending resources such as clinics and other services. Glassdoor.com reports that the average salary for this job is a little over $35,000.
