Social isolation of quarantine

Other Names:
Permanent quarantine
Expulsion of sick people
Nature:

Permanent quarantine was imposed on people with contagious deadly diseases in some countries, for example, AIDS victims in Cuba, during the 1980's and early 1990's. The quarantined people suffer from social isolation and the loss of their freedom to circulate normally in society. This creates a quarantined community that exists only to wait for death.
