Historically quarantine has never prevented spread - it only slows it down to allow resources to be brought on line. The best attempt was when Venice required ships to stay at anchor for 40 days, even that wasn’t 100%.

History is replete with examples of quarantines working. A very cursory look into that would make that clear to you. Please do not post misinformation.

Nothing is 100%.
But I reject that prevalent argument that since it doesn’t work 100% doing nothing is better. Cause we don’t want to be ‘mean’ to anyone.

About quarantine, there’s no need for concern about people walking across borders or arriving by ship. Any of those people who became ill would be non-contagious before arrival. The focus could be on airlines—thorough and not difficult.
