    This is unfortunately quite commonplace. Governments the world over have rediscovered the power of the never-ending "emergency"

      Having to invoke emergency powers, when other similarly-affected countries don't resort to that, should be seen as an admission that the government has failed to correctly prepare. As such, power should instantly be transferred to the main opposition party, especially as you shouldn't trust any party to wield powers that you wouldn't want to be available to your worst enemy.
