Yeah, it's pretty bad.
I don't think it's "make it illegal to visit your mum, ban all social events, close the schools, bars, pubs, stop flights, wear things on your face, stop going to work normally, ..." bad.
But that's just a value judgement thing. Without those things there is no life to save. YMMV.
