Only 17% of the cruise ship Diamond Princess passengers were infected...most without symptoms.
After how many weeks? They 23,5 hours lived in isolation. Most became infected because they had to stay on the ship and they did cross the path of others at least two times a day for dinner or walking on the desk. Death rate nevertheless is 1.5% among the 711 infected.
And according to a Japanese doctor (did work for WHO in SARS/MERS case - his report is on youtube) because ignorants did run the quarantine.
