To be sure, quarantine is an inconvenience. No one – if it can be helped – would want to be subjected to it.


And there could not be such a thing as voluntary quarantine. People suspected of contagious infection do not have a choice whether to go into quarantine or not.


When a doctor orders you to be confined, those are orders better followed for the good of everyone. A doctor does not normally require a court order to bring a patient to confinement.
