CV and mad panic behaviour

[Baggers]

1. The Spanish Flu

They did not lock down, they quarantined the sick.

Healthy people were not.

You failed to acknowledge the reality that businesses were closed and public gathering heavily curtailed etc. Economic impact. Mental health impact. Unemployment impact. Mm, certain similarities to a lockdown, most folks would reasonably interpret.

Masks were mandatory and fines issued for non-compliers. Also sounds somewhat similar to what we experience currently with... gulp... lockdowns.

And state borders were closed...

Pretty sure the folks in Sydney in 1919 would say it felt like a 'lockdown'... and with good reason.
