Um... okay. I'll change it then.

I'll change "contagious" to "easily communicable", because I don't think sexually transmittable counts as easily communicable.

Please describe one specific hypothetical instance where a state could use this definition as a loophole to avoid making quarantines.
Tinfect wrote:"Ambassador, actions taken to ensure those within a quarantine are not abused, while necessary, are not appropriate medical treatment."
So? It's defining "appropriate treatment", not "appropriate medical treatment". Why should the administration of treatments in the manner described in 3(c) be limited to medical ones?
Tinfect wrote:"And how exactly do you propose that this is done? Mandatory testing for all citizens? I certainly hope you are aware of both logistical needs of such an operation, and of the vast number of objections to such an action a populace might have."
The clause is there because otherwise states might refuse to find out whether a certain space is an infected area, and thus not have to make a quarantine there. I'm going to change it to "actively search", and hope the problem goes away.
Tinfect wrote:"This requirement is quite arbitrary. A single person spreading the disease to one other person over the course of 30 days, would require that a quarantine be established, further, a situation in which the initial infected population is much higher, it allows for the situation to be ignored entirely if it falls short.
I deleted that part of 3(a) so it's moot now.

Do you mean I should change all the things you pointed out? Or are there more problems you haven't mentioned yet?...
