Institutional quarantine is the burden for asymptomatic patients ..it is the wrong move by govt ..it puts ppl in risk staying and good earning for hots and govt …policy makers should rethink on this issue..
I m doctor myself and understand all the issues ….I have never been exposed and came by personal car ..Please consider home quarantine as I came home and now been asked for institution ..it is very difficult for me to pay for hotels and risky to my life too ..this might expose me to danger .I stay with my husband , I promise to not come out of house for 14 days …please consider …first staying home and then asking for institutions makes no sense to me too ..
Please keep option of home quarantin with smart tracking system
