Currently people testing positive (or presumptive positive) are sent home to infect their families. Where is the outrage? There should be other options so that families will be safe. Every community, state and country, should have a "Safe Family" program.
I have been asked to clarify the consequences:

Research has shown that 80% of COVID-19 infections occur within the family setting. Returning infected people to their homes endangers these people's families. 1/2
And a failure to strictly isolate infected people makes even the strictest limits on movement less effective and last longer than necessary. This comes at a great cost in terms of both human lives and economic well-being. 2/2
