People will never abide by a two month quarantine in this country. The number of people who say "I'll just get sick and risk spreading it" starts at much greater than zero and will rise every single everyday.

There will need to be back-and-forth quarantines, or targeted quarantines, or some other creative method of allowing people to live roughly normal lives after a few weeks.

yeah, i'm actually impressed the general public has been as accommodating as they have. It won't last forever though, I think the government knows they can only keep people in their homes for so long. Eventually, the people will be like eff this and start re-engaging their lives.
