I rarely quaranteen if there are no immediate signs or parasites or communicable diseases. It is a good idea, but you won't end up killing off all your birds if you go without the quaranteen unless the bird has a deadly disease. The way I see it is if the new bird had some dangerous disease that could kill your old birds, then it would already be dead or at least showing signs of said disease. There are only a few of these diseases that can be carried without showing any signs and in that case you don't know anyway.
I highly doubt that after such a short time the female could have died from a disease she caught from the male. If it had been a disease that fast acting the male would be dead as well and probably would've died long before he came to the new home.
