No. Quarantine is where you restrict the movement of people who may be carriers for infectious diseases. Because spreading infectious diseases makes healthy people sick. You do realize that healthy people can get sick..right? Like...you know that some people who are sick were healthy prior to that? You realize that closing a door to a room doesn’t make the room disappear..right?

Except they didn't really restrict those kinds of people completely, right? All those exceptions to the rules of people who didn't have to quarantine, irregardless of whether they may be a carrier.
