By the way, the 1st one, creates a big economical problem for the full country, which will take many years to recover from. Many SMEs can go to bankruptcy, because I don't think this "country" quarantine situation will take only 2 weeks, probably closer to 2 months ...

    According to a documentary displayed yesterday in the TV, it looks like there are (up to now) 2 models to combat the propagation of the virus:

    1) Chinese model, which is the same adopted in Italy and now Spain, quarantining everyone via an "alarm state" law. You can go to work only if needed, do shopping for food, but not go out of home for visiting friends, sports or fun. Only food shops can remain open, and a few other exceptions (pharmacies, banks).

    2) The S. Korean model, which is testing lots of people and quarantine only for those that don't pass the test.

    It looks like the S. Korean model is working, so either there are different tests, which are not reading the same, or something else.

    Maybe someone from S. Korea can tell?

        This is absolutely correct.  Hospitals here are trying to clear
        out as many non-critical cases as possible, to postpone any
        surgical procedures that they can, to stockpile supplies, to give
        staff as much rest as they can, etc.  They are expecting the worst
        and anything that we can all do to decrease the need for care
        across the entire population will help.
