Reread the following quote from paragraph 10: “He really thought I liked it here, that I did not care for my freedom.” How does
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

This quote contributes to the idea that doctor's begin thinking that she liked being there in isolation than caring for her freedom.

Explanation:

"Letter from Mary Mallon" On Being Typhoid Mary" is a letter written by Mary to her lawyer informing him about his treatment in quarantine. Mary Mallon was an asymptomatic carrier of typhoid who spread the infection to the houses where she cooked, of which some died.

Doctor's then kept her in quarantine on an island where she was not given proper medical treatment. She became a mere observational subject to them.

The inclusion of the quote in paragraph 10 contributes to the idea that the doctor's begin thinking that she loved being there, in isolation. This quote is ironic because Mary did want to get free but she was declined freedom. And develops the idea how poorly she was being treated there against her will.

hope this helped
