Reminds me of the scene in the series "Lilyhammer", where
<spoiler>
a similar literal interpretation of the ESTA check list, i.e. a Norwegian police officer answering "Yes" to the question if he has ever been in contact with terrorists/terrorism, eventually causes the protagonists' witness protection bubble to be pierced through a series of unfortunate events.

Heh, I could have had similar experiences that I didn’t want to push (but in hindsight, the border should have taken it as a lesson to improve for COVID).
Back in the Ebola days (5 years ago?), the Canadian border entry terminals at airport would ask:
“Have you been in contact with anyone with Ebola?, Yes or No?” and I wanted some help from them, because how the hell do I know? Can barely spell the disease, let alone explain it.
