Such constraints actually might work well in a medical facility (which is the example David gives). Rooms can be delineated not by Bluetooth beacons or WIFI, but simply by door access badges (although that involves employee tracking concerns). Regarding anonymity, would it not presumably be expected that healthcare workers exposed to COVID-19 be identifiable anyway to peers/employers (for the protection of patients and the workers own welfare, e.g. testing and sick leave)?
