Amid the COVID-19 pandemic that began last year, with more than 10,000 new cases a day and over a million cases in total, I imagine some club members may have been infected.

If you test positive for COVID-19 within two weeks after a date, how do you handle informing the person you went out with?
I imagine that naming that person during contact-tracing interviews with the public health center could potentially cause problems. How do you deal with this?
Also, if the person you went on a date with tests positive and you may have been a close contact, how do you explain to your family, for example, where you might have caught it?
I’m Dai, a male member.
Even people who take thorough infection-prevention measures can still become infected. So you can’t really blame someone for catching it, can you?
If I became infected, I would notify the club and tell the woman as well. I would tell the public health center that I didn’t know how I contracted it.
If my partner were infected and I became a close contact, I think I would honestly tell the public health center that we had been dining together or being intimate at a hotel. I would simply tell my family that the route of infection was unknown.

I’m Date◎Yume, a male member.
Even after COVID started, I continued dating just as I had before, and I never got infected. Of course, we were extremely careful to avoid infecting each other…
We agreed to notify each other if either of us became infected—or even suspected we might be.
As for questions from the public health center, I think I’d simply say that the source of infection was unknown. I mean, it would be strange, wouldn’t it? There’s no way I could explain that I’d become a close contact of a young woman I normally wouldn’t even have met, let alone known…

You often hear them say the route of infection is “unknown,” right?
Not in every case, but I think some of those “unknown” cases may actually be related to papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan).

I’m Kazu, a male member.
If I had an infection, I’d let the other person know. You’ve usually exchanged contact information, and if not, you could contact them through the club.
Since there’s no way to know where the infection came from, I’d probably just say that I don’t know.
