Honestly, a painfully naive suggestion and what makes me genuinely concerned that people don't realise how much of a problem it is that we're seemingly being cut off right now.

Ban individual travel, by all means, but closing the borders is not feasible. 48 hours is going to be a disaster, the idea that we could do it for weeks or months? Mad.
I meant to passengers TS, not freight obviously.
