You’re not in quarantine if you’re well and just staying indoors more than usual FFS.

Damn it we need this virus to go away.

Because it’s easier than saying “stay at home ordered”

You're right. Blood of the lamb in the form of a cross on your doorhead, is what's needed.

I’m calling it “the training period before my inevitable competitive eating career”

The definition of a quarantine disagrees with you.

The real problem in the wording used by governments in all this is the misuse of "shelter in place". The next chlorine leak, a real shelter in place event, is going to have people at risk bc they won't understand the severity of the situation

Isolation - you have it and don’t want anyone to catch it

Quarantine - you may have been exposed and you hope you don’t have it.

So what’s you don’t have it and you hope anyone else but you gets it.

I’ve asked that too. It’s isolation more than anything but def not quarantine

You can be if you've been tested.

I'm being tested and have to quarantine until the results come back, at the minimum.

An old word coined when Italian coastal cities made sailors stay on their ships 40 days after entering port as a precaution against the plague.
