The other thing that concerns me about a proposed lockdown of any group of people is the extent to which it is contravening civil liberties and human rights. I've not heard much about that yet.

Sigh, there are so many layers to this thing. Some of the countries that have seen some success in slowing down the virus, it has been at the expense of civil liberties, or even human rights unfortunately. I don't think that'd go down well over here.
