Home isolation is recommended for a person who might have been exposed to an infectious disease and is within the incubation period of the particular disease. It is required for that individual to restrict his/her activities in order to prevent the spread of infection to those close contacts who are well.
Before an individual is placed under home isolation, he/she needs to ensure: that he/she has separate bedroom for his/her use with an attached bathroom or a bathroom designed solely for his/her use.
