"One of the reasons Mary Mallon's story is still so fascinating is that there are so many unanswered questions about her. Did she suspect, before George Soper first approached her, that she might have had something to do with the typhoid that struck all the families she worked for? Why did she risk going back to cooking after she'd finally won her release form North Brother Island? Re-creating her story in articles and books and plays and movies, people have tried to make up their mind about Mary. Was she a villain? Or was she just an ordinary person whose life was ruined by an uncaring system?"

But as a method of disease control, it could easily backfire. Thousands of panicked people would flee infected cities, hoping to get out before quarantine orders shut them in with the sick and dying. Inevitably, these people would develop the plague, spreading it far and wide."
