Physically insulate and isolate. How is it done psychologically without ancestors recognizing it is done to them ancestrally? Rhetorical question by the way.SJConspirator » 08 Sep 2021, 3:18 pm » wrote: ↑ I used to think I had a good laymans understanding of quarantine, why it’s used, and the utility of it. Lately, I have been told here on this board, that mass immigration has no effect on Covid rates, that has caused me to re examine my whole understanding of the practice of quarantine. Here is the definition
quar·an·tine
/ˈkwôrənˌtēn/
nounverb
- a state, period, or place of isolation in which people or animals that have arrived from elsewhere or been exposed to infectious or contagious disease are placed.
"many animals die in quarantine"Now if a single human is infected with a contagious disease, and he is put into quarantine, it lessens the risk of others being infected. To extrapolate that concept on a global scale, it would seem that a country being separated from other countries, in a sort of macro quarantine, would also reduce the risks of infection, no?
- impose isolation on (a person, animal, or place); put in quarantine.
Why is quarantine only effective on a small scale? Please explain.
