I agree. Figured that word would throw it off.

Perhaps, but it's also true it's disgusting it's even being considered, so the wordplay about how bad it is seems silly too.

That was stupid and never should’ve happened. After recognizing that, Desantis literally has been the leading voice of reason regarding restrictions with any actual power in this country.
Now that we’re a year and a half later, whats your next failed gotcha attempt?

I’m just wondering how asking Americans to quarantine in their home for 7 days after foreign travel is harsher than quarantining for 14 days when simply driving into another state?
Not too mention kids being pulled out of school, business being forced closed, etc. It’s ridiculous how y’all are even giving any credence to the OP

Yes I know. You’ll notice the words “failed” and “attempt” surrounding gotcha.

I agree other things have been worse, but I also don't see any value in having an argument between how shitty a 1lb shite sandwich is vs a 2lb shite sandwich on this topic. This policy should have been shot down the moment it was uttered, not floated in the Wash Post to see how people react to it.

I don't think any home confinement of any length by the government regarding COVID can be compared to a knee scratch, regardless of the existence of "even worse" policies.

Should they do it? No. Does it have any real effect on anyone’s life and is anyone being actually confined in their home against their will? No

He was literally like Hitler and the Jews
Look. In March 2020, nobody knew what Covid is/was. Now we KNOW. He made a call based on actual safety that at the time he could defend. How can Biden or DeSantis for that matter defend it now. They can’t. The minute DeSantis figured it out, he made his state wide open.

I don't believe that is accurate. Currently there is advice/guidance to quarantine. This policy floated was to attach fines and penalties.
I agree the enforceability would be extremely difficult, but the mere mention of civil penalties, the fact this has even made it this far in consideration, is alarming.

But from an actual common sense standpoint, if people self quarantine after travel it absolutely would help in slowing the spread of any variants overseas. It gives them time to see if they develop symptoms before congregating with others
So it’s a slippery slope saying “he could defend it”. Biden can easily “defend” this ridiculous policy as well

The Washington Post article literally says fines and penalties are being considered.
The administration is clearly floating these in the press to gauge reaction.

I absolutely think the admin will say people should quarentine after foreign travel. Hell I already thought they have said that

Make it a recommendation then. He’ll make the recommendation that if you don’t feel well, stay home. That would solve the vast majority of spread.
What is implied here is what Australia is doing.

Found the next failed gotcha attempt.
Where is there any mention of the current cdc recommendation to stay home for 10 days being required? Or potentially subject to fines and penalties?

This rumor is about a 7 day quarantine after international travel. Comparing the two seems a bit much
