Dr Ferrer (lol she’s not actually a medical doctor) of LA county has said that more than 50% of their cases are from elder care facilities. I’d be very interested to find out how many of the other cases are in households where a resident works in an elder care facility.
No probably not. But it's their decision. As long as nobody infects another knowingly against their will there's no grounds for government interference.

My guess is that an expensive place to live, like LA, has a below average number of people living in nursing homes.
Los Angeles has far more nursing homes — 388 — than any other county in the state. San Diego, the state's second most populous county with about a third of LA's population, has about one-fifth as many nursing homes.

Well I don't think hardly anybody wants to be infected, so that part of your quasi libertarian statement is irrelevant. And since unless one has been tested on cannot know if one has the virus it is sort of ridiculous to use the term knowingly infected, as if someone with aids corn holed you. 35% asymptomatic, many with mild symptoms one simply, in most cases can't know. But one can assume that a certain % of convention goers almost certainly will be contagious. Yeah the government has a role to play here, who is going to clean up the mess when the old, fat, diabetic Republicans on medicare end up on ventilators?
I don’t know about illegals, but number of blue collar workers in a household is the most plausible explanation I’ve heard this far.

mell saysSweden has 1.5 x cases per capita than Denmark and twice those of Norway and Finland, nothing to see here.
You're countering deaths per capita with cases per capita? You can't be serious.
Density wise Sweden is also much lower than France, and it's on track to pass it in total deaths per capita in a week or so.
Sweden has 10 times more deaths per capita than Norway and Finland, and 4 times more than Denmark which has a higher population density than Sweden.
About 90% of the 3,700 people who have died from coronavirus in Sweden were over 70, and half were living in care homes, according to a study from Sweden’s National Board of Health and Welfare at the end of April.
