When the issue goes to the SCOTUS, I'm sure that parallels will be drawn to how our society manages restricting vulnerable populations versus restricting all population.

An example would be how children aren't allowed in establishments whose sole purpose is to sell adult restricted items like alcohol or pornography.

Everyone is vulnerable during a pandemic though, and the US is suffering from the effects of a lack of critical foresight and initial preparedness. I have no doubt at all that this is going to wind up in the Supreme Court but I don't think it's a cut and dry case.

For the first time in history, everyone is vulnerable during a pandemic? Not so.

For the first time in history, everyone is locked down during a pandemic? Yes.
