A local director of public health will encounter moral and political issues, along with logistical considerations, when faced with the possibility of quarantining or isolating an individual or a group. Review the public health legal authorities on isolation and quarantine.

Research the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak where quarantining of individuals was employed. Choose to discuss either isolation or quarantine. Discuss in detail the special considerations for daily care and well-being and legal requirements that must be made for the quarantined or isolated individual. 

2. Discuss the societal complexities involved with meeting the needs of those in quarantine and isolation. Consider issues such as single parents and childcare, meals and feeding, job security, for example.
