The report is huge, here are a few lines to show what law may be used if a person shoots, kills a BF and they want to detain that person (s).

Under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act, CDC may apprehend, examine, detain, or
conditionally release persons with certain communicable diseases that are listed in an Executive
Order of the President, i.e., “quarantinable diseases.” This includes the authority to quarantine
and isolate persons to prevent the spread of these diseases. (42 U.S.C. § 264),
Also under 42 U.S.C. § 264, CDC may apprehend and examine individuals traveling from one
state into another if the CDC Director reasonably believes that such individuals may be infected

with a quarantinable disease in its qualifying stage. A qualifying stage means that the disease is
in a communicable stage, or a pre-communicable stage, but
only if the disease would be likely to
cause a public health emergency if transmitted to other individuals. Additionally, the Director
must reasonably believe that the individual is moving or about to move from one state into
another or constitutes a probable source of infection to other individuals, who while infected
with such disease in its qualifying stage, will be moving from one state into another. If such
individuals are found to be infected, they may be detained as reasonably necessary.
Federal regulations governing quarantine and isolation are found in the Code of Federal
Regulations at 42 CFR parts 70 and 71. Part 70 governs interstate quarantine and isolation,
while part 71 deals with foreign quarantine and isolation. In November, 2005, CDC proposed
revisions to its federal regulations governing quarantine and isolation. At the time of publication
of this report, the final quarantine regulations were expected to be published in the near future.[/font]
