How do bug ferrets quarantine, then?
In cases of pandemic/epidemic, families or districts are asked to quarantine rather than individuals-- literally the government may shut off the area tunnels and switch them to isolated air ventilation. For day-to-day mildly infectious sicknesses, it’s up to the family how to deal with individual ill ferrets. Usually, they are set up in the house’s medical room with limited physical contact but plenty of social interaction. A more strict family might put them in a room alone, but they would still generally be spoken to through the door and via instant messaging. That would still be miserable experience for most ferrets, but it’s not true isolation.
