What sense does it make to send all your positive COVID patients to the heart of a community where people gather?

Most of the studies I've read indicate it takes a minimum of 15 minutes of accumulated exposure _indoors_ to contract Covid-19. That's in a confined space with little air movement. The exception was health care workers who were intubating covid patients and caught a face full of covid concentrate.

Walking past someone with Covid, unless they cough into your mouth, is not going to expose you to this disease.

I'm also quite sure there will be a triage tent of some sort set up outside and other protocols to prevent covid positive people from infecting others. Such as, they won't have them all sitting in a 10x10 waiting room that also lets uninfected people linger about breathing in virons.
