isolation protocols
Separation safety measures
Isolation protocols are structured measures to prevent the spread of infectious diseases by separating individuals or groups who are infected, exposed, or at risk.
Historically, maritime quarantine stations were established in the 14th century to isolate ships suspected of carrying plague.
Modern protocols often include contact tracing, health screenings, and the use of specialized facilities for containment.
International health regulations, such as those by the WHO, standardize these practices globally.
During the outbreak, strict isolation protocols were enforced at border crossings.
