[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's be honest, the US has been more lax than China and Italy. Increasing testing is a good start. To really get a handle on this we need to quarantine people who test positive in a separate location like a hotel so they don't spread it to the rest of the population. We should quarantine essential workers as well.

Unfortunately, Americans would never go for that.[/quote]

You’ll have to provide some more specific details about your hotel plan.[/quote]

DP, but this is what China did. As soon as someone tested positive (or maybe when they were just sick?), they were sent to a temporary quarantine with health care services. In addition to reducing spread, it would keep sick people near health care for those instances where people suddenly took a bad turn.

I don’t think Americans would go for this BUT they probably would go for it if it was voluntary. I know if I was sick I’d want to isolate from my family and have professionals monitoring me. China built makeshift hospitals but using hotels seems reasonable too. [/quote]
