In public, yes...
Old Boy is right in that herd immunity is the only way to effectively stop this, either by getting the disease or immunisation while still running a functioning society. You could prevent cases and let the disease 'die out' by the strictest of strict isolation but that simply isn't possible without a sanitorium/leper colony type setup.
It's a tough one, balancing out the disease rate,
vs. the impact of economic inactivity..
