Fauci: "Even if you are without symptoms, you very well may infect another person…So in essence, you are encroaching on their individual rights."
Sounds like sound scientific theory. . .
So, does this mean that anyone who shows symptoms of ANY disease and then subsequently infects someone else is liable for violating the civil rights of those they infect?
Like, you're at work, and a coworker comes in obviously sick (sneezing, coughing, looking beat up). They couldn't afford to take the day off, so they decided to go to work anyway and power through the symptoms.
Is that person liable for your pain and suffering if you catch it? Financial damages? Medical costs?
If we have a right to not be infected, it only makes sense.
The real question is, how do you know that is the person who infected you? Could have been the person you brushed against getting off the bus.
Which brings us full circle. If you have NO symptoms and haven't been tested every other day, there's no way to know who you infected -- if anyone -- because you don't know that you're infected.
