The game however gives you no means to whack the mole. Only country global measures. So the game does not let you "open up" without the number of infections rising again to unacceptable levels, but will punish you with low government trust. At the same time you cannot trace cases and cannot have local lockdowns. It does not represent reality.

I think the game "trace case" when the number of cases is less than 1000. I'm not sure how it's implemented, probably the increase rate changes when you pass that threshold.
