To meet substantive due process, a public health intervention must be based on a public health necessity, an effective intervention, have a demonstrable means-end connection, be proportionate to the threat involved, and be the least restrictive means of accomplishing the goal. In addition, Daubert explains the parameters of the procedural due process. Due process in a quarantine situation does not always involve a judicial hearing, but it must contain the following elements: notice to the affected individual, an opportunity to contest the government's action, access to legal counsel, and a final decision that is subject to review by a court of law.

She thinks that due process should increase as the likelihood of infection decreases. Finally, she looks at the current procedural and substantive due process framework might work in the event of a large-scale quarantine. To do so, she discusses the due process required in involuntary mental health commitments and how that might translate to a quarantine scenario.
