No, "not releasing them until they're treated" just won't fly. We have a lot of discussions about the loss of freedom in healthcare, and generally we can't do something like that unless they're an immediate danger to others or themselves.
Once they're very sick there are a variety of treatments one can try, but they're neither a replacement for social housing for people who are just struggling economically, nor something to deny people who need to get a return to normalcy.
It is also socialism, or at the very least social democracy here in the Nordics, and it works well :)
