Now that you better understand quarantine, it’s useful to know how it differs from isolation and social distancing, two terms being bandied about by experts in the past few months.
Isolation is separating those with confirmed infections from the population so they can get better without passing on the virus.
Social distancing comprises tactics people use to separate themselves from others and reduce their risk of infection.
