Conscripts to temporarily replace deceased and/or incapacitated government servants. Government service cannot be stopped completely.

What? Replace who? To do what? How does conscription of government employees from any department change the reality of a pandemic? Travel is not safe. That’s the whole point.

We need to ramp up testing and find a vaccine. We do not need to encourage travel. Quite the opposite.
