Covid-19 twice as contagious as previously thought...
Just pay them, e.g. 500USD each, or however much is enough to reduce the number of refusals to a negligible proportion. It's cheap compared to the cost of making incorrect decisions because you don't know how many people have the virus.

That's a perverse incentive. You'd have to pay everybody $500 each, not just the refusals, since everyone is going to refuse in order to gain $500.

You can even refuse 500USD in hope to get 1000USD...
