just too many what ifs.
What if the exposed persons in the house give the disease to one another after they have been quarantined? What then? Will that trigger reason to believe they could have contaminated others before the quarantine?
By my calculus they have already been exposed to a person who was already contagious when he was with them and before they went to school for the requisite 2 days or more.
NO, I’m not buying wishful thinking that this is a third world disease. Not buying it at all.
It may not be as contagious as the flu but it is more deadly and we do not have any natural antibodies for it like we do the flu.
just too many what ifs.
But this means that in fairly short order we will know if this single person’s contact list was impacted at all. Then the “what if’s” are answered. I’ve always found it interesting that things like the black plague didn’t kill EVERYONE. I’ve read that something like that DID happen to the north american indian population between the vikings’ visit and Columbus’ visit - that fully 90% of their population may have been wiped out, and why they kicked the vikings’ butts but were a different “civilization” in the late 15th century.
