Isolate (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

quarantine

'isolate' is the definition.
(quarantining is a kind of isolating)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for quarantine that I've seen before include "Period of isolation to prevent spread of disease" , "Isolate (to prevent spread of disease)" , "separate from others" , "solitary confinement" , "State of isolation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
