We will not be able to totally do this and many will die. I agree with Everything you have said Diana.
With suggestion #1, as we now go through security before any travel might the Health Dep set something similar to this and traige every person. Those traveling to where the outbreak is occuring may need to be stopped.

#2 Would this require Marshel law? With today's average person I can NOT see them willing quarantining themselfs. It's difficult enough now to have people take their medications as ordered by their physician.

#3 Agree and should be reviewed seriously.

#4 This should be occuring NOW!!! Every few weeks I have purchased N95's.
Also have begun storing food that has a shelve life of 2-3 years.

To say the least this will affect each family greatly!! As others have already pointed out numerous people will not be able to work due to the disease and/or quarantine. I can't see having soup lines. What of the Army or the Guard delivering basic things to families in need? If they have no money and are out of food. After a few days of quarantine good luck with keeping teenagers and outdoors type people inside their houses.
Marshel law will most likely be needed.
We must begin NOW to plan to protect our family.
