Dear lawyer Twitter: what would be the legal basis in the United States of a centralized quarantine system like the one practiced in China, where if you are found to have a fever you get taken to a fever clinic, and potentially quarantined apart from family without your consent?
Does this require new legislation? Is it already within the scope of legal authority for a public health emergency?

The Qanon and Alex Jones fans think this is the whole plan behind the virus anyway, so god knows what would kick off it were attempted. At the very least you'd have "sovereign citizens" refusing to cooperate and barricading their houses.

If they barricade their houses, the problem kind of solves itself.
