The February–March 2003 issue of HazMat Magazine suggests that people be "locked in a room until proper decon could be performed", in the event of "suspect anthrax". Standard-Times senior correspondent Steve Urbon (14 February 2003) describes such temporary quarantine powers: Civil rights activists in some cases have objected to people being rounded up, stripped and showered against their will. But Capt. Chmiel said local health authorities have "certain powers to quarantine people". The purpose of such quarantine-for-decontamination

Since the sixteenth century, the Ottoman Empire has isolated travellers coming from epidemic areas during

1008-485: A public awareness of the dichotomy between "crowd" and "home" diseases. Simply quarantining the sick in isolation was ineffective in halting the spread of the disease, and new quarantine standards that extended regulations to public spaces became increasingly more common.

For this reason, the region from Cairns to Broome—including the Torres Strait —is the focus for quarantine activities that protect all Australians.

Quarantine is distinct from medical isolation , in which those confirmed to be infected with a communicable disease are isolated from the healthy population. Quarantine may be used interchangeably with cordon sanitaire , and although the terms are related, cordon sanitaire refers to

1872-523: The Bubonic plague. A quarantine involved isolating healthy travellers for a period of time so that it could be ascertained if they were sick or not. The mandatory quarantine of special groups of patients, including those with leprosy, started early in Islamic history. In the early 8th century the sixth Umayyad caliph Al-Walid I segregated lepers from the general population, with some later sources crediting

2304-578: The Venetian language form, meaning "forty days". This is due to the 40-day isolation of ships and people practised as a measure of disease prevention related to the plague . Between 1348 and 1359, the Black Death wiped out an estimated 30% of Europe's population, and a significant percentage of Asia's population. Such a disaster led governments to establish measures of containment to handle recurrent epidemics. A document from 1377 states that before entering

The main body of the academy, which is accessed along a tree-lined street from the entrance gate of the hospital of St. James, consists of a large three-story building of three wings at right angles which enclose a large "Piazza d'Armi".

On the arrival of cholera in 1831 some new lazarets were set up at western ports; notably, a very extensive establishment near Bordeaux . Afterwards, they were used for other purposes.

3168-466: The old system at the time were Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Greece, and Russia (the British possessions at the time, Gibraltar, Malta, and Cyprus, being under the same influence).

The minimum specified by international conventions

3240-552: The opposite—a ship that 'requests free pratique ', i.e. that declares itself free of quarantinable disease, and requests boarding and routine port inspection. Ships in quarantine today would fly either the Q flag alone, meaning "My vessel is 'healthy' and I request free pratique", or the double Q flag (QQ), meaning "I require health clearance". The quarantining of people often raises questions of civil rights , especially in cases of long confinement or segregation from society, such as that of Mary Mallon (also known as Typhoid Mary),

Plain yellow, green, and even black flags have been used to symbolise disease in both ships and ports, with the colour yellow having a longer historical precedent, as a colour of marking for houses of infection, previous to its use as a maritime marking colour for disease. The former flag used for

3528-543: The period during which all ships were required to be isolated before passengers and crew could go ashore during the Black Death plague. The quarantena followed the trentino , or "thirty-day isolation" period, first imposed in 1377 in the Republic of Ragusa , Dalmatia (modern Dubrovnik in Croatia). Merriam-Webster gives various meanings to the noun form, including "a period of 40 days", several relating to ships, "a state of enforced isolation", and as "a restriction on

3600-559: The plague. Dubrovnik was the first city in Europe to set up quarantine sites such as the Lazzarettos of Dubrovnik where arriving ship personnel were held for up to 40 days. According to current estimates, the bubonic plague had a 37-day period from infection to death; therefore, the European quarantines would have been highly successful in determining the health of crews from potential trading and supply ships. Other diseases lent themselves to

3672-458: The practice of quarantine before and after the devastation of the plague. Those affected by leprosy were historically isolated long-term from society, and attempts were made to check the spread of syphilis in northern Europe after 1492, the advent of yellow fever in Spain at the beginning of the 19th century, and the arrival of Asiatic cholera in 1831.

Children and adolescents may be highly exposed to biopsycho social stressors generated by

3816-507: The purpose was the "Lima" ( L ) flag, which is a mixture of yellow and black flags previously used. It is sometimes called the "yellow jack" but this was also a name for yellow fever , which probably derives its common name from the flag, not the colour of the victims (cholera ships also used a yellow flag). The plain yellow flag ("Quebec" or Q in international maritime signal flags ) probably derives its letter symbol for its initial use in quarantine , but this flag in modern times indicates

3888-537: The restriction of movement of people into or out of a defined geographic area, such as a community, in order to prevent an infection from spreading. An early mention of isolation occurs in the Biblical book of Leviticus , written in the 7th century BC or perhaps earlier, which describes the procedure for separating out people infected with the skin disease Tzaraath . The medical nature of this isolation is, however, disputed. As traditional exegesis (dated 700 CE) sees it as
