What will a national lockdown look like?

Obviously they will do their best to keep the trucks stocking the grocery stores, but what of other businesses? Will FedEx, UPS, and USPS continue to operate?? Will Amazon still deliver?? What about people with emergency plumbing, electrical, etc. needs? Will the supply houses be closed?? There will also obviously be at the very least the NG on the streets, and quite possibly the army? What of mandatory quarantine, you know, the one where the suspected or confirmed infected get whisked off to a location where they can be 'monitored'. Have the 'authorities' acted quickly enough to keep the health care system from collapsing to the point that people that shouldn't be dying and suffering from things other than the Wuhan flu? (NO!)

This is the unknown. We're in unprecedented times.

I just spoke with someone I know who has relatives in Madrid, Spain. Just like Italy there's a national shutdown. Only the pharmacies and the grocery stores are open, and the grocery stores are open for limited hours only. Only one person is allowed to leave a household at a time each day to go to the grocery store or pharmacy. If one is out on the street when presenting symptoms one gets taken into custody (more like arrested, fined, and jailed) for quarantine. The police and the army are out patrolling.

Get to see it on a state level tonight.

New Jersey issues statewide curfew to combat coronavirus (https://www.kron4.com/health/coronavirus/new-jersey-issues-statewide-curfew-to-combat-coronavirus/)

New Jersey is taking things one step further by prohibiting travel from 8 p.m. ET to 5 a.m. ET, with the exception of essential travel, Gov. Phil Murphy announced Monday.

This remains in effect for the foreseeable future, Gov. Murphy said.

I think Amazon is taking over the supply chain. They announced they will stop stocking "non-essential" items from third party Sellers in their warehouses. So they will be many peoples source of household needs.

*those assholes are SUPPOSED to be looking out for national security threats, instead they all suffer from rectal-cranial inversions, I mean shit, us regular folks saw this coming nearly 8 weeks ago, those assholes' JOBS are to always be on the lookout for and assessing national security threats, the only explanation is that the outcome we're seeing was intended
