We have seen that during vaccine unavailability, social distancing, rigorous contact tracing, and case isolation are found to be the most effective strategies to contain the disease outbreak. For effective management of home-based isolation, patient care should not be limited to the illness but should also take into account other factors that are related to the needs and sustenance of patients and their dependents.
