I think this pandemic will reveal many facets on the effectiveness of quarantines/lock downs. These measures always have a political meaning, because they effectively create a separation between those included and those excluded from the quarantine. Such a political move will pressure some politicians toward implementing these lockdowns if they are targeted toward foreigners and away from them if implemented toward a domestic subgroup. It may be easy to ban travel from Europe, but very hard to ban travel from Washington state.
