Hotel Quarantine?

 This came up as a N-TV news quarantine discussion item today.

The Marburger Bund Doctor's Union came to suggest that if you came to be tested 'positive', you leave where you are, and go immediately to a hotel room (not going home or to your apartment).

Logic here?  Lets say a family of four live in a 90 square meter apartment.  Person #1 is identified as positive.  By the standards in place....person #1 must return home, and persons #2, #3, and #4 must now leave where they are, and return home....whether they have the virus or not.

Then in their logic with this hotel idea....the state would pay for the isolation period/quarantine time in the hotel.  Cost?  Well....this wasn't openly discussed but I would note that if you went to a standard German hotel (2-to-3 star), and said that breakfast/lunch/dinner (with beverages) must be served in the room....total cost per day would be 125 to 140 Euro.  Total cost?  Over 1,500 Euro (figure $1,850 roughly).  

Now, the things left out of this crazy idea?  Which hotels would volunteer to be quarantine hotels?  I can't imagine any hotel owner volunteering for this.

I would suggest as well....this only works for adults....I wouldn't send off some teenager or 12-year-old kid to a hotel.

The odds that this will be discussed?  I'd put the odds at 5-percent.  In a single parent family?  It's a total mess to develop this strategy.
