Description: Coomes et al present several facts about quarantine. Quarantine is a strategy for containment of infectious diseases that differs from isolation. Quarantine sequesters healthy, asymptomatic people exposed to an infectious disease for the duration of the incubation period, to contain the spread of the disease. In contrast, isolation refers to separating patients with active infection from healthy, unexposed people, to prevent transmission.
