QuaranTent

About

A structure for effective home quarantine

The QuaranTent addresses the burden that quarantine might pose on the home and other members of the household. Designed as a collapsible tent that allows infected or exposed people to quarantine themselves without causing entire portions of homes to be shuttered off. It includes a small mattress, miniature sink, toilet, shower and a small window to serve and receive food. The optional trap floor allows for outdoor deployment, if needed.
