I was born in 1932 and thank God for vaccines.

As a child I had measles,mumps,chicken pox,and scarlet fever. Quarantined for all and the entire family quarantined for the scarlet fever.

I missed polio but remember the fear when there was a bad polio summer. Two kids in my neighborhood contracted it.

I had them all and more being from a large family and have no idea what you mean by quarantine because we were never quarantined except in the sense that we stayed home from school for the duration.
