Coronavirus: Can the government make you stay home if you

are sick?

Control and Prevention (CDC) has been warning Brazilians that they should
prepare for “significant disruptions” in their daily lives.

But what does that mean to the average Brazilians?

working to contain the virus by restricting travel and in some countries issuing
large-scale quarantines.
