OP is clearly talking about Alberta changing the laws about self-isolation. At some point, we are going to have to transition to using the same 'cultural norm' framework in dealing with Covid that we do with the flu.

Or we could do much better and transition to the Asian cultural norm and wear a g.d. mask when sick, and preferentially stay t.f. home when ill. Spreading disease is a stupid, stupid norm in our culture.
