Summary
"You know, just the usual things to keep busy."Evans and the other Americans at the base in Riverside, California, were the first U.S. citizens to be quarantined by the federal government since the 1960s, health officials said last week. The Public Health Service Act, which broadly empowers the government to prevent the spread of disease, includes language specifically identifying the family of viruses known as coronavirus as a disease that could justify mandatory quarantine orders.With only 11 confirmed cases in the U.S. so far, though, Stanley said there was little reason to issue such sweeping quarantine orders."Quarantine can be a justifiable public health measure," he said, "but it has to be based on science."The recent quarantine orders call to mind similar measures taken to contain the spread of Ebola in 2014, said Amy Kapczynski, co-director of the Global Health Justice Partnership at Yale Law School.
