Hello! Recently, a funny short video about the quarantine appeared on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5s433aTy98
The voice-over: "Because of the coronavirus, you are going to be quarantined, but you have a choice. Do you: (A) quarantine with your wife and child, or (B)..."
What puzzles me is the form of the question. I would expect something like:
- "Do you want: (A) to be quarantined with your wife and child, or (B)..."
- ...but you have a choice: (A) to be quarantined with your wife and child, or (B)..."
