That's like the leper colony concept of old. This sounds like the extreme practice of containment of a virus. And on paper is workable and works.
But problems abound. Including one big one. Would someone with a dreaded disease want to spend the rest of his or her life on an island far away from his/her loved ones whose support he or she needs? Bearing in mind that most HIV+ people want to remain anonymous and that some don't even know they are HIV+...how will we know that 'all' HIV+ people have been put away for containment?
I suppose one can argue that every single person on earth is put away and restricted from doing drugs with needles, getting blood transfusion and having sex (protected or unprotected) for 6 weeks or more--and then after that, get tested with the ELISA test for HIV status, before being put back into circulation or put in a containment place for the rest of his or her life.
<sigh> Not possible lah. So the best way is to develop a vaccine and a cure (real cure, not just retroviral drugs).
