Wuhan avoided it with a centralized quarantine. If you were positive, you weren't allowed to go back home and infect your family.

Where did they go? Are there 80k hospital beds in Wuhan?
Football stadiums, convention centers, that sort of thing. They set up a bunch of cots and people laid there to recover. If you started to deteriorate, they sent you to an actual hospital.

There's talk about doing this maybe with all of the empty hotel rooms in NY.
