Of course it has to be done decently- quarantined people are not criminals and they have families and outside obligations with which they may need assistance while their liberty is denied by society.

I agree with this point 100%

I'm glad that the governors for NY and NJ implemented a mandatory quarantine late Friday - probably the first smart pro-active move we've seen.

But yes, they should be treated for what they are - people who risked their lives to treat others. THAT is where tax dollars should go - for things that make sense.
