[quote=Anonymous]My parents are pretty elderly so remember when we had real public health authorities prior to WWIi. They would come and put a sign on your door if you had measles or step or yellow fever or typhoid or or polio or anything like that and you were legally obligated to quarantine—that included the whole family even those who didn’t have it (although there were exceptions for wage earners who had previously had it and needed to go to work). But then we got vaccines and antibiotics and we got rid of all those people. And people forgot about what it is like. Measles is waaaaaaay more infectious than Covid — do not mess around with transmitting that. [/quote]
