Thoughts on how to handle a building with an infected tenant

Found out today I have an infected tenant in a duplex. Funny, for all my thoughts towards the impact of the virus, I never thought to wonder how I was going to handle an infected building - duh. I guess I'm much better at fixing a door than I am at herding people.

So, I called the other tenants of course and let them know the building was confirmed infected and so far, have left it at that. I suspect the infected tenant will quarantine themselves but really, there is no way to know if they do that and probably I ought to expect they won't.

I am happy they had the courtesy to inform me they tested positive. To me that shows they are considering the safety of others and one better, are not so sick they can't even make a phone call. I pray they will get well very soon.

I need to send over some soup or something.
