His GF is now at risk and so are 2 other friends although likely not as "at risk". Their contacts are also at risk, too. People on the subway who came in contact with him may be at risk since neither you nor Selkirk can guarantee exactly when he became contagious. The solution was to put anyone with a visa stamp from western Africa under a mandatory 21 day quarantine. If they are symptom free after 21 days - they go on to enjoy the rest of their life. BUT that would not be politically correct - public health be damned. Instead we end up with contact tracing nightmares and the images of police who went into this Dr's apartment, removing and discarding their hazmat suits in the street. |
