I recently saw a discussion on a medical forum that suggested that the only way to stop the spread of COVID-19 is for everyone who is exposed to the virus to stay home for 12-14 days.

Mind you, this is not to say that those who are symptomatic should stay home, but that anyone exposed at all should stay home.

So here’s my question: If we really believe that, what should we do about doctors and nurses?

I work in the emergency department. Odds are that every single day I will be exposed to someone with COVID-19.
