WHO: Why The US And Europe Are Headed For A Miserable, Deadly Winter

The World Health Organization knows what the single most effective method of controlling an epidemic is: quarantining.

It's complete isolation from other people, including those you'd normally live with and breathe around, to the fullest extent possible.

In other words, keeping sick people away from every other person until they're not sick anymore and the chain of transmission has been broken.

It means not going to the grocery store.

It means not socializing with friends.

It means not having people over at your home.
