Summary/Abstract: The measure of quarantine or solitary confinement has been compared by some practitioners or contestants of the COVID-19 pandemic to house arrest, as they tried to implement the idea, in the collective thinking, that this measure is a security measure taken against a person accused of committing a crime and who has the capacity of defendant in a criminal case. Are isolation or quarantine a house arrest? Do these two measures represent a restriction on the person’s freedom of movement?
