Freedom to move around, and lead normal day-to-day life? Is he fucking serious? In China, you need an app on your phone telling everyone you're not infected, If someone around you even as much as have a fever, your fucked.

Best case scenario you can't leave your home. Worse case, you get fined for having Coronavirus, and you get disappeared.

If the whole city is locked down, you can't buy food, you will be beaten for trying to leave. They weld people's doors shut to ensure they do not leave. I don't know if they ever unweld the doors. If the government is actually nice enough to give them food during the lock down. They will transfer food in a dirty garbage truck and give each family a single fish to last the month. Not only that everyone is still expected to pay rent, even though they cannot go outside.
