"False sense of security" is a frequently misapplied concept. Your post is such an example.

Something that reduces a risk (e.g. virus spread) by 5% provides very real security improvements. There is nothing "false" about it. Your concept of "false sense of security" would only apply if someone promised a 5% measure provided 100% security - and nobody is doing that.

The “false sense of security” I refer to is for employees who go to work and get their temperature checked and think they are fine since they don’t have a fever.

This is a “false sense of security” because one can have the virus and be contagious without a fever or any symptoms at all.

People have misconceptions about the virus regardless. Fever checks are not the cause.
