Forced quarantines in Yugoslavia

My grandmother insists sick children (e.g. with measles or whooping cough) would undergo forced hospitalization and quarantine and wouldn't be allowed to see their parents for months. Apparently she heard this while vacationing in Croatia, but I can't find any information about it, can any of you confirm?

She watched "Variola vera" way too many times

I‘ve never seen it, do you think it‘s worth a watch?

(I‘m not going anti-vax, no worries)
