In 1959, I contracted chicken pox when visiting relatives in South Carolina. My parents were afraid of being quarantined, so they sneaked me into motel rooms on the drive home after check in. Quarantine is an old practice.

From the mid-50s during the polio outbreak it was common to see houses with yellow quarantine signs on the front porch. I remember asking Momma what they were about. Tracing and quarantine are not the end of the free world as we know it. We can’t stand another -32% quarter and we need to get back to work. Is giving up some privacy when we really don’t have any so bad to not get sick and maybe not continue to destroy the economy?
