Countries and territories around the world enforced lockdowns of varying stringency in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some included total movement control while others enforced restrictions based on time. In many cases, only essential businesses were allowed to remain open. Schools, universities and colleges closed either on a nationwide or local basis in 63 countries, affecting approximately 47 percent of the world's student population.[1][2]

Beginning with the first lockdown in China's Hubei province[3] and nationwide in Italy in March 2020, lockdowns continued to be implemented in many countries throughout 2020 and 2021. On 24 March 2020, the entire 1.3 billion population of India was ordered to stay at home during its lockdown, making it the largest of the pandemic.[4] The world's longest continuous lockdown lasting 234 days took place in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2020. As of October 2021, the city of Melbourne, Australia, and certain cities in Peru and Chile spent the most cumulative days in lockdown over separate periods, although measures varied between these countries.[5][6]

A few countries and territories did not use the strategy, including Japan, Belarus, Nicaragua, Sweden, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Tanzania, Uruguay, two states in Brazil (Roraima and Rondônia)[7][8] and certain United States states.

### Argentina

[edit]

ASPO and DISPO in Argentina: A successful example of a combination of non-pharmacological and pharmacological measures for the care of the pandemic population:

Mandatory Preventive Social Isolation (ASPO) decreed by the national executive branch:

On March 12, 2020, one day after the WHO declared the outbreak of the new coronavirus as a pandemic, the national State issued the Decree of Necessity and Urgency (DNU) No. 260/2020 by which the public health emergency established by Law No. 27,541 on December 21, 2019, was extended for a period of one year. The recitals of this decree express: “That in the last few days, the spread of cases of the new coronavirus Covid-19 has been noted in numerous countries of different continents, reaching our region and our country. That, in the current situation, it is necessary to adopt new timely, transparent, consensual and evidence-based measures, in addition to those already adopted since the beginning of this epidemiological situation, in order to mitigate its spread and its health impact”.

On March 19, 2020, the National Executive Power issued DNU No. 297/2020, which provided for the mandatory preventive social isolation (ASPO) for all persons living in the country or temporarily in the country at the time of its issuance, in order to protect public health, an inalienable obligation of the national State. This provision provided that while the ASPO was in force, people should remain in their usual residences, refrain from going to their workplaces and could not travel on roads, highways and public spaces, in order to prevent the circulation and spread of the Covid-19 virus and the consequent impact on public health and other derived subjective rights, such as the life and physical integrity of people. Permanent controls were also established on routes, roads and public spaces, accesses and other strategic places, in order to guarantee compliance with the regulations established within the framework of the sanitary emergency. On the other hand, as the mandatory isolation was extended, it was assumed that the epidemiological situation was not homogeneous within the national territory and different quarantine modalities began to be adopted according to the reality of the different jurisdictions of the country, in accordance with a joint work between national and local authorities. Therefore, DNU No. 355/2020, dated April 11, already established that the Governors or the Head of the City Government could submit to the national Government, for its authorization, proposals to free some activities with the due adoption of operating protocols for each case. Exceptions to the ASPO and to the prohibition to circulate were also progressively incorporated, in order not to interrupt the supply of essential products and services and, also, to incorporate the performance of different economic activities in those places where the evolution of the epidemiological situation would allow it. On the other hand, DNU No. 459/2020, dated May 11, specified a geographical segmentation to provide for exceptions to the ASPO, distinguishing three segments: departments or districts with up to 500,000 inhabitants, departments or districts with more than 500,000 inhabitants, and the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (AMBA). This Decree defined exceptions for the first two segments and made a difference with the AMBA, as the most complicated area of contagion5 . DNU No. 520/20, at the end of June, established as a parameter to differentiate the geographical realities the doubling time of cases confirmed by Covid-19: restrictions could be released if this period was not less than 15 days and if the health system had sufficient capacity to respond to the health demand. For urban agglomerates, departments or districts that did not meet these requirements, the ASPO was extended. These differentiated modalities of quarantine according to the epidemiological realities of the country showed interesting results. Thus, in the recitals of DNU N° 520/2020 of June 7, the recovery of the economic activity in most of the country was highlighted: “According to data provided by the Ministry of Productive Development of the Nation, more than SIXTY-FIVE PERCENT (65%) of the registered workers of the whole country are already part of activities authorized to produce; in some provinces, this number climbs up to EIGHTY PERCENT (80%)”. It is important to add that on May 13, 2020, the Senate of the Nation approved a set of Decrees of Necessity and Urgency issued by the Executive Branch, among which Decrees No. 297/2020, No. 325/2020 and No. 355/20206 were included.

Three months after the declaration of the sanitary emergency, on June 7, 2020, at the national level, the restriction measures began to be relaxed in order to achieve the recovery of the highest possible degree of normality in terms of economic and social functioning, establishing geographical zones that would go from social, preventive and mandatory isolation to social, preventive and mandatory distancing (hereinafter, DISPO) due to the decrease in the levels of virus circulation and number of contagions2. In this sense, almost all the provinces of the country were enabled to move to the new stage of social, preventive and obligatory distancing3 , allowing new activities and reducing both internal and entry controls to their territories. https://amnistia.org.ar/wp-content/uploads/delightful-downloads/2021/04/0504_Amnistía-informe-anual-pandemia-2.pdf

### Australia

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 pandemic in Australia

A barrier on the state border of Queensland and New South Wales preventing interstate travel in April 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia.

A number of Australian states, territories, and cities have implemented lockdowns in response to the pandemic. The country entered a general nationwide lockdown on 23 March 2020 during the first wave of the pandemic,[9] which was lifted on 15 May 2020.[10]

The state of Victoria, particularly its capital city of Melbourne, the country's second most populous city with five million residents, entered an extended lockdown on 7 July 2020 in response to a rapidly growing community outbreak. Initial measures included the closure of all non-essential services, including retail entertainment venues and gyms. Restaurant and bar establishments were permitted to open in take-away and delivery capacities only. Schools and childcare facilities were also ordered to close. Face coverings were made mandatory as of 23 July 2020, with a fine of $200 AUD for non-compliance to those above 12 years of age, although formal exemptions could be acquired. Initially scheduled to last six weeks, restrictions were tightened further on 2 August after cases continued to grow, including a ban on travel further than a five kilometre radius from place of residence, a nighttime curfew of 8pm to 5am, a one-hour limit on outdoor exercise, a one-person per day limit on shopping for essentials, and public gatherings limited to a maximum of two people.[11] Restrictions were progressively eased as the case rate declined, and were completely lifted on 28 October. With a total duration of 112 days, the Victorian lockdown was at the time the longest continuous period of COVID-19 lockdown globally as of October 2020.[12] The lockdown resulted in the state recording zero active cases of COVID-19 in November 2020.[citation needed]

Victoria entered its fourth lockdown on 28 May 2021[13][14] in response to an outbreak of the Delta variant.[15] Originally scheduled for seven days, the lockdown was extended to two weeks and lifted on 10 June.[16] Another outbreak of the Delta variant saw Greater Sydney enter lockdown on 26 June 2021, scheduled to last until 16 July,[17] but extended by two weeks on 14 July[18] then until 28 August[19] and the end of September 2021.[20] Combined with snap lockdowns declared in Brisbane, Perth, and Darwin, more than 12 million people were in lockdown across Australia on 29 June 2021.[21]

Brief "snap lockdowns" in response to new clusters, particularly of the Alpha, Beta, and Delta variants, have been implemented at various times across the country.[22][23][24]

Metropolitan Melbourne's 6th lockdown ended in October 2021, with the city spending among the longest amounts of time spent in lockdown in the world.[25][6]

In November 2021, Austria introduced lockdown measures, but only for unvaccinated people, in response to an increase in cases and low vaccination rate.[105] The country introduced a lockdown for all citizens a few days later, making it the first European country to reintroduce such measures in the winter of 2021.[106]

### Bangladesh

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 pandemic in Canada

On 25 January 2020, the first identified presumptive case in Canada was a 56-year-old male who had travelled to Wuhan, China, before returning to Toronto on 22 January.[111] Canada issued a travel advisory against non-essential travel to China due to the outbreak, including a regional travel advisory to avoid all travel to the province of Hubei.

Federal health officials stated that the risk in Canada was low.

On 26 January 2020, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam tweeted, "There is no clear evidence that this virus is spread easily from person to person. The risk to Canadians remains low."[112]

Three days later, on 29 January, Dr. Tam told Canadians that "It's going to be rare, but we are expecting cases."[113][114]

On 1 February, the position of the prime minister and the administration remained that it would be discriminatory to exclude travellers from China, the source (and, at the time, still the epicentre) of the disease.[115][116]

During March, Canadian provinces implemented lockdowns in response to COVID-19.

Ontario, the country's most populous province, had its first provincewide lockdown starting on 26 December 2020.[117] The lockdown was strengthened with a stay-at-home order effective 14 January 2021,[118] and reopened on a regional basis starting 10 February.[119] As a result of the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in the province caused by SARS-CoV-2 variants, the government of Ontario once again announced a four-week provincewide shutdown effective 3 April.[120] This shutdown was once again strengthened with another 28-day stay-at-home order starting 8 April, in order to quickly combat the urgent crisis in the province's hospital capacity being caused by the variants.[121]

The city of Toronto, Ontario is considered to have the longest continuous COVID-19 lockdown of any major city in the world.[122]

### China

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 lockdown in China

China was the first country to enforce the quarantine and lockdown of cities and later whole provinces in late January 2020. Chinese Communist Party general secretary Xi Jinping said he personally authorized the unprecedented lockdown of Wuhan and other cities beginning on 23 January.[123] Although such measures are a very old tool of epidemic control,[124][125] their use at the scale of a large city such as Wuhan or the even larger scale of provinces was controversial among experts at the time, with questions about their effectiveness[126][127][128] and their ethics.[125][129][130] Some public health experts, while not always condemning the measure, raised the issue of the inevitable psychological toll such measures would have.[131][132][133] An ex-World Health Organization (WHO) official who headed the organization's Western Pacific Region during the SARS outbreak said that "the containment of a city [hadn't] been done in the history of international public health policy".[127] The WHO called the decision to quarantine Wuhan "new to science".[134] By early April, all lockdowns had ended or relaxed to a certain degree as the cases started to dwindle and the outbreak had come under control.[135][136]

On March 27, 2022, Shanghai experienced an extended lockdown. Many residents lacked food. On June 1, 2022, Shanghai was returning to normal. A series of protests in mainland China against COVID-19 lockdowns began in November 2022.

### Denmark

This section is an excerpt from COVID-19 pandemic in Denmark § Lockdown.[edit]

An empty yeast tray at a supermarket in Odense on 17 March 2020. Following the announcement of a general lockdown, large-scale panic buying of several everyday products occurred.[137]

Starting on 13 March 2020, all people working in non-essential functions in the public sector were ordered to stay home for two weeks.[138] These restrictions were announced with an acknowledgement that the circumstances would be difficult, and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen urged Danes to practice samfundssind (roughly, community-mindedness).[139] The first documented use of this Danish word was in the 1936, and the then-Prime Minister Thorvald Stauning used the term to call for solidarity at the outbreak of World War II in Europe.[139]

In the private sector, employers were urged by the authorities to allow their employees to stay home in the same period and work from there if possible, although this should not affect functions that are essential to the society (such as pharmacy workers and people working with sale of food and maintenance of critical infrastructure).[140]

On that same date, all secondary education (like gymnasiums), universities, libraries, indoor cultural institutions and similar places were closed, initially for two weeks. Starting on 16 March, all primary schools, daycare and similar places were also closed for two weeks.[138] Virtual (online) schooling was used to some degree.[141] The municipalities are establishing limited daycare for children where the parents could not stay home and take care of them. Because of the vulnerability of elderly to COVID-19, it was strongly recommended that grandparents should not take care of their grandchildren.[142]

### Fiji

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 pandemic in Fiji

On 19 March 2020, Fiji confirmed its first case in Lautoka. In response, the Government of Fiji ordered the lockdown of the city on 20 March with closures of all schools and non-essential services all over the country.[143] On 3 April 2020, Fiji's capital, Suva, went into lockdown after confirming two new cases. More than 300,000 residents were confined to their homes and all non-essential services in the city was closed for two weeks.[144]

On 19 April 2021, Nadi and Lautoka went into lockdown after recording its first community transmission in one year.[145] As cases continues to escalate in its second wave, the government has ruled out any possibility of a nationwide lockdown but would focus on targeted lockdowns of communities instead.[146]

### France

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 pandemic in France § Lockdown measures

From 17 March 2020,[147] all people in France were required to complete and carry an exemption form to leave their homes and can be fined for non-essential journeys.[147] Essential journeys include shopping for food, travelling to and from work, accessing healthcare, and exercising within 1 km of the home for up to 1 hour. Police around the country had set up road blocks to check people who were out and about had good reason and that their exemption declarations were in order. These measures were lifted on 11 May 2020, with remaining restrictions on travel further than 100 km away from one's residence. The latter restrictions were lifted on 2 June 2020.

On October 28, president Emmanuel Macron announced a second lockdown to begin on October 30. During this second lockdown, schools remain open and more industries can keep operating (construction, public services...). Like the first lockdown, citizens need to sign their certificates to can go around within 1 km up to hour per day.[148] Fines are 135 euros the 1st time, 200 euros for 2 times within 15 days and 3750 euros and 6 months jail sentence for 3 times within 30 days.[149] This lockdown was replaced by a curfew on December 15, 2020[150] which was itself abolished on June 20, 2021.

On the evening of 24 March 2020, the Government of India ordered a nationwide lockdown for 21 days, limiting the movement of the entire 1.38 billion (138 crores) population of India as a preventive measure against the COVID-19 pandemic in India.[160] It was ordered after a 14-hour voluntary public curfew on 22 March, followed by enforcement of a series of regulations in COVID-19 affected countries.[161][162] The lockdown was placed when the number of confirmed positive coronavirus cases in India was approximately 500.[160] Upon its announcement, a mass movement of people across the country was described as the largest since the partition of India in 1947.[163] Observers stated that the lockdown had slowed the growth rate of the pandemic by 6 April to a rate of doubling every six days,[164] and by 18 April, to a rate of doubling every eight days.[165] As the end of the first lockdown period approached, state governments and other advisory committees recommended extending the lockdown.[166] The governments of Odisha and Punjab extended the state lockdowns to 1 May.[167] Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, and Telangana followed suit.[168][169] On 14 April, Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended the nationwide lockdown until 3 May, on the written recommendation of governors and lieutenant governors of all the states, with conditional relaxations after 20 April for the regions where the spread had been contained or was minimal.[170]

On 1 May, the Government of India extended the nationwide lockdown further by two weeks until 17 May. The Government divided all the districts into three zones based on the spread of the virus—green, red, and orange—with relaxations applied accordingly.[171] On 17 May, the lockdown was further extended until 31 May by the National Disaster Management Authority.[172]

On 30 May, it was announced that lockdown restrictions were to be lifted from then onwards, while the lockdown would be further extended until 30 June for only the containment zones. Services would be resumed in a phased manner starting from 8 June. It was termed as "Unlock 1.0".[173] Modi later clarified that the lockdown phase in the country was over and that 'unlock' had already begun.[174]

The second phase of unlock, Unlock 2.0, was announced for the period of 1 to 31 July, with more ease in restrictions.[175] Unlock 3.0 was announced for August.[176] Similarly, Unlock 4.0 was announced for September[177] and Unlock 5.0 for the month of October.[178] In the same way, Unlock 6.0 was announced for the month of November,[179] Unlock 7.0 was announced for the month of December.[180]

In 2021, due to the largest wave of infection in the country, several state governments, including Uttar Pradesh,[181] and Delhi,[182] announced complete lockdowns in April 2021.

Most notably, St. Patricks day was cancelled, that's when the irish public knew it was serious. On 12 March, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar announced the closure of all schools, colleges and childcare facilities in Ireland until the end of August.[189] On 27 March, Varadkar announced a national stay-at-home order for at least two weeks; the public were ordered to stay at home in all circumstances. All non-essential shops and services, including all pubs, bars, hotels and nightclubs closed and all public and private gatherings of any number of people was banned.[190] The Garda Síochána (Irish police) were given power to enforce the measures, which were repeatedly extended until 18 May.[191]

A roadmap to easing restrictions in Ireland that included five stages was adopted by the government on 1 May 2020 and subsequently published online.[192] The fourth and final phase of easing COVID-19 restrictions in Ireland was initially scheduled to take place on 20 July, but was repeatedly postponed until 31 August at the earliest.[193]

On 7 August, Taoiseach Micheál Martin announced a regional lockdown and a series of measures for counties Kildare, Laois and Offaly following significant increases of COVID-19 cases in the three counties, which came into effect from midnight and will remain in place for two weeks.[194]

On 15 September, the Government announced a medium-term plan for living with COVID-19 that included five levels of restrictions.[195]

After a fourth wave of COVID-19 arrived in Ireland in October, the Government published on 19 October a revised plan for the easing of restrictions, with nightclubs allowed to reopen, however the continued use of masks, vaccine certificates and social distancing measures would remain in place until at least February 2022.[206] On 3 December, the Government reintroduced a series of measures that would commence from 7 December amid concerns of the Omicron variant, with nightclubs to close, indoor cultural and sporting events to operate at 50% capacity and a maximum of four households allowed to meet indoors.[207]

The Omicron variant caused a fifth wave of COVID-19 to arrive in late December and early January 2022, with record levels of cases reported over the Christmas and New Year period.[208] As cases began to fall sharply, Taoiseach Micheál Martin announced on 21 January the easing of almost all COVID-19 restrictions, with the requirements of vaccine certificates and social distancing to end, restrictions on household visits and capacity limits for indoor and outdoor events to end, nightclubs to reopen and pubs and restaurants to resume normal trading times, while rules on isolation and the wearing of masks would remain.[209] Remaining restrictions were agreed to be removed from 28 February, with mask wearing in schools, indoor retail settings and on public transport to be voluntary, restrictions in schools to end and testing to be scaled back.[210]

[edit]

Main article: COVID-19 lockdown in Italy

On 9 March 2020, the government of Italy under Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte imposed a national quarantine, restricting the movement of the population except for necessity, work, and health circumstances, in response to the growing outbreak of COVID-19 in the country. Additional lockdown restrictions mandated the temporary closure of non-essential shops and businesses. This followed a restriction announced on the previous day which affected sixteen million people in the whole region of Lombardy and in fourteen largely-neighbouring provinces in Emilia-Romagna, Veneto, Piedmont and Marche, and prior to that a smaller-scale lockdown of ten municipalities in the province of Lodi and one in the province of Padua that had begun in late February. The restrictions were loosened in May 2020.

The lockdown measures, despite being widely approved by the public opinion,[211] were also described as the largest suppression of constitutional rights in the history of the republic.[212] Nevertheless, Article 16 of the Constitution states that travel restrictions may be established for reasons of health or security.[213]

### Malaysia

The MCO prohibited mass gatherings, movement within the country, and most industries and all education institutions were ordered to close. Extended Movement Control Orders (EMCO) were implemented in areas where suspected superspreading events or widespread transmission had occurred. The Royal Malaysian Police were mobilized to enforce restrictions.[214][215] These restrictions were later eased under the "Conditional MCO" (CMCO), which maintained some restrictions on assembly and movement but allowed some sectors to reopen[216] which was later further relaxed to the "Recovery MCO" (RMCO) nationwide.[217] Localized CMCOs restrictions were introduced in the states of Sabah and Selangor were later introduced in response to outbreaks in those states.[218] The MCO was reinstated nationwide in January 2021.[219]

### Myanmar

Myanmar's State Administration Council announced a nationwide lockdown in July 2021 in response to an increase in cases and deaths.[222]

### Namibia

[edit]

Schools were closed, parliamentary sessions suspended, and generally all gatherings of more than 10 people were prohibited.[224] Formal and informal bars were closed and the sale of alcohol prohibited. This "stage 1" of the lockdown was in force until 4 May 2020. From then on, regulations are to be gradually eased.[225]

### Nepal

[edit]

COVID-19 community quarantines in the Philippines were a series of stay-at-home orders and cordon sanitaire measures that were implemented by the government of the Philippines through its Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID).

As of November 2021, under the original classification system that was enacted in 2020, there were four main quarantine tiers. In Metro Manila there is now an alert level system (ALS) which has been introduced in September 2021 and it is already in place. As of November 2021, all regions of the country have been covered by the ALS system, which has become the national standard.[253]

In the original classification system, the strictest community quarantines is the "enhanced community quarantine" (ECQ), which effectively is a total lockdown. According to the ALS, there are five tiers of alert level, with alert level 1 being the most lenient and alert level 5 being the most strict.

The 2020–21 Singapore circuit breaker measures were a stay-at-home order and cordon sanitaire implemented as a preventive measure by the Government of Singapore in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the country on 7 April 2020.

The measures were brought into legal effect by the Minister for Health with the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) (Control Order) Regulations 2020, published on 7 April 2020.[286] Singapore had relatively few COVID-19 cases before the emergence of the Delta and Omicron variants from 8 May 2021 to 29 March 2022.[287]

With its relative success in curbing the early spread of the virus in Singapore, the term "circuit breaker" and its measures was subsequently adopted by other countries, particularly in Canada and the United Kingdom.[288][289]

* those working in industries that can not be economically shut down (such as mines and steel mills).[294]

During the lockdown, all gatherings except for funerals were prohibited.[295] Restaurants, taverns, bottle stores and all other stores not selling essential goods were to close during the lockdown period.[294] Schools, already closed a week before the lockdown period, will not reopen until after the lockdown. Non-exempt people are only allowed to leave their homes during this period to access health services, collect social grants, attend small funerals (no more than 50 people) and shop for essential goods.[296] See the South African Government Gazette 25 March 2020 for a complete list of exemptions and non-exemptions during the lockdown period. South Africans were ordered not to take their dogs for a walk during the lockdown, though they may walk them around their house or apartment building.[297]

On 21 March 2020, Bangkok City Hall authorities declared a wide-ranging shutdown of various businesses. Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang disclosed after the City Hall meeting that the board had passed a resolution to close establishments under Section 35 of the Communicable Diseases Act B.E. 2558 (2015), effective for a period of 22 days from 22 March to 12 April 2020. This was then extended from 12 April 2020 to 30 April 2020.[300] Only supermarkets, pharmacies, and takeaway restaurants will be allowed to stay open at the malls.[301]

The government issued a curfew to take effect on 3 April 2020 between 10pm-4am in order to limit the spread. The government has additionally issued a travel ban for all foreigners entering Thailand.[302] Some critics of the government have been arrested for allegedly spreading false information about the coronavirus pandemic.[303][304]

The curfew was cut from 10–4 to 11–4, then 11-3 and officially ended on 15 June 2020.[305]

Early April 2021, Bangkok's entertainment venues were ordered to be closed for 2 weeks.[306] Mid-April 2021, schools were ordered to be closed for 2 weeks,[307] taking the 2000+ daily cases into consideration.[308] Since 26 April, more businesses including gyms closed for 2 weeks.[309]

### United Kingdom

The COVID-19 lockdown in the United Kingdom was a series of stay-at-home orders introduced by the British and devolved governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On 23 March 2020, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a nationwide lockdown to curb the widening outbreak of COVID-19. This involved closing many sectors and ordering the public to stay at home. It was an extension of the previous advice to avoid all non-essential contact, which was issued on 16 March 2020.[310] This was incrementally lifted, starting from several weeks later. Similar restrictions were introduced in late 2020 and early 2021 as infections rose. Restrictions applied to certain areas, and then on a larger scale, differing between the four countries of the United Kingdom to which Health is devolved, with the central government being responsible for England.

### United States

States, territories, and counties that issued a stay-at-home order in 2020:

Came into effect before 22 March

Came into effect before 29 March

Came into effect before 5 April

Came into effect before 12 April

Stay-at-home orders in the United States have come from several states and a large number of local jurisdictions, sometimes leading to conflicts between different levels of government and a patchwork of inconsistent dates and rules.[311][312][313] A nation-wide lockdown mandate was never implemented.

On 15 March 2020, Puerto Rico governor Wanda Vázquez Garced signed an executive order to order all citizens to stay home starting at 9 p.m. with exceptions in limited circumstances between 5 a.m. and 9 pm. Governmental operations and non-essential businesses were to be closed until 30 March.[314]

The first order within the states was simultaneously imposed by health authorities in heart of the San Francisco Bay Area (Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties and the cities of San Francisco and Berkeley) effective 17 March 2020, affecting nearly 6.7 million people.[315] Other cities and counties across the state followed suit over the next two days, until Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, issued a state-wide order effective 19 March 2020.[316]

On 20 March 2020, New York governor Andrew Cuomo announced the state-wide stay-at-home order with a mandate for remote work effective 22 March.[317] Illinois governor J. B. Pritzker followed that lead on the same day with a state-wide order which would go into effect on 21 March at 5 pm.[318] Ned Lamont, the governor of Connecticut, signed an executive order called "Stay Safe, Stay At Home" to take effect state-wide on 23 March at 8 p.m.

On 20 March 2020, Navajo Nation announced that it had broadened the stay-at-home order to cover the entire reservation, the largest in the country.[319]

On 21 March 2020, New Jersey governor Phil Murphy announced a state-wide stay-at-home order effective at 9 p.m. on the same day.[320]

On 22 March 2020, Ohio governor Mike DeWine and Ohio Department of Health director Amy Acton issued a state-wide stay-at-home order effective 23 March.[321] In the afternoon, the Louisiana governor John Bel Edwards announced a state-wide stay-at-home order in a press conference.[322] Delaware governor John Carney followed suit with a stay-at-home order for his state.[323]

* Hawaii governor David Ige issued a state-wide stay-at-home order effective 25 March which was similar to the orders that were previously issued for Maui and Honolulu counties.[331][332]

On 23 March 2020, Yakama Nation announced its "Stay Home, Stay Healthy" order.[333]

On 24 March 2020, Wisconsin governor Tony Evers issued a state-wide stay-at-home order to close all non-essential businesses and ordered no gatherings of any size effective 25 March until 24 April.[334] Vermont governor Phil Scott signed a stay-at-home order and directed closure of in-person operations of non-essential businesses effective 25 March until 15 April.[335]

On 25 March, Idaho governor Brad Little and Minnesota governor Tim Walz issued stay-at-home orders for their respective states.[336][337] Colorado Governor Jared Polis issued a stay at home order effective on Thursday the 26th at 6 a.m. through 11 April 2020.[338]

On 1 April, Florida governor Ron DeSantis issued a stay-at-home order effective Friday, 3 April 2020 until the end of the month.[339] On 2 April, Georgia governor Brian Kemp issued a stay-at-home order effective Friday, 3 April 2020, until Monday, 13 April 2020.[340] It overrules any local stay-at-home restrictions previously in place, and instructs residents to stay at home unless they're conducting "essential services," meaning either traveling to and from jobs or other exceptions, including buying groceries; purchasing medical equipment; going out to exercise; and visiting medical facilities.[341] The same day, Dr. Anthony Fauci publicly questioned why all states were not under stay-at-home orders.[342][343]

In late May 2020, citywide curfews were enacted in San Francisco and several surrounding cities; San Jose; Minneapolis; Atlanta; Chicago; Cleveland; Columbus; Denver; Jacksonville, FL; Los Angeles; Memphis, TN; Omaha, Nebraska; Lincoln, Nebraska; Pittsburgh, Philadelphia; Portland; Salt Lake City; San Antonio; Buffalo, New York; Rochester, NY; Syracuse; New York City; Milwaukee; Seattle; Cincinnati; Indianapolis, Indiana; Fayetteville; Raleigh, North Carolina; Charleston, SC; Sacramento, CA; Columbia, SC; and Asheville, NC due to protests[344] regarding the murder of George Floyd. Countywide curfews were enacted for Los Angeles County, California and Alameda County, California as well. Arizona enacted a state-wide curfew. These curfews are imposed as complemented to stay-at-home order that imposed by state or local authorities.

On 2 November 2020, Massachusetts governor Charlie Baker issued a night-time stay-at-home advisory and business curfew effective 6 November 2020.[345]

### Vietnam

#### Nationwide isolation

[edit]

This section is an excerpt from Vietnamese government response to the COVID-19 pandemic § April nationwide isolation.[edit]

Many public areas such as schools and restaurants had to be closed until 15 April 2020.[346]

On 31 March 2020, the Vietnamese government ordered a nationwide isolation of 15 days from 1 to 15 April.[346] From 16 April, local airlines could raise the number of domestic flights, which were subsequently further increased on 23 April and again on 29 April.[347][348][349]

On 23 April 2020, Vietnamese government lifted social isolation rules, subsequently allowing re-opening of non-essential services including restaurants. On the same day, schools across the country could be re-opened, with dates varying per each province and city case.[350]

Everyone who enters Vietnam from abroad, however, continued to be quarantined upon arrival for 14 days.[citation needed] From 23 April, plans for repatriation flights to bring Vietnamese citizens abroad back to Vietnam were re-newed, with an initial plan for 13 flights.[348] Among the flights conducted was notably the first-ever direct flight in history operated by Vietnam Airlines from Vietnam to the United States on 7 May.[citation needed]

From 9 May, cinemas were reopened.[351] On 11 May, Vietnamese government started a nationwide tourism campaign, named 'Vietnamese travel Vietnam', to increase domestic demand for travelling and promote domestic tourism.[351]

#### Da Nang

[edit]

This section is an excerpt from Vietnamese government response to the COVID-19 pandemic § Da Nang lockdown.[edit]

Two Da Nang medical workers wearing protective suits before performing COVID test.

In late-July 2020, Vietnam was placed on high alert after the government confirmed dozens of community infections, the first since April, all in or around Da Nang.[352]

On 27 July, the government made the decision to evacuate 80,000 people from Da Nang. The government said the process would take four days with domestic airlines operating approximately 100 flights daily from Da Nang to 11 cities around the country.[353]

On the same day, the Da Nang Municipal People's Committee announced restrictions applicable for 15 days, starting from 28 July. Six districts in quarantine area include: Hai Chau, Thanh Khe, Son Tra, Ngu Hanh Son, Cam Le, and Lien Chieu District with more than one million people requested to stay at home and only go out in case of extreme necessity such as buying food, medicine,seeking essential goods and services, and medical emergencies. All educational and non-essential services in the city was closed. Face masks were mandated in public and people were ordered to frequently wash their hands with soap or alcoholic sanitisers. Gatherings of more than two people in public are disallowed and maintenance of a minimum distance of 2 meters is required. All types of public transport were halted and personal vehicles were heavily restricted. The Da Nang Department of Health was asked to promptly organize epidemiological investigation, contact-tracing in areas related to the confirmed cases, and massive testing to early detect infection sources and high-risk cases.[354][355]

> After the midnight of 28 July 2020, Da Nang International Airport will be temporarily closed. All public vehicles such as tourist buses, taxis, public buses in the area of Da Nang must stop operating, except for government vehicles, emergency vehicles and any vehicles transporting necessities. Any car traveling through Da Nang cannot stop to pick up passengers in the city.

> Vietnam Railways has been instructed to suspend the operation of passenger trains to and from Da Nang station. North–South trains are still operating normally on the route but do not stop when entering the city area. Passenger boats and ferry services originating from Da Nang are also prohibited. Aircraft, ships and vehicles transporting cargo are not affected by this regulation.

> Da Nang is an example [of the importance] of human resources, medical facility. Despite many efforts but the central government still have to total mobilize to support. If an epidemic occurs in a mountainous province it will be even more difficult. Must be determined that from now on there will be no time of peace, but the readiness for an outbreak.

— Nguyen Thanh Long, the Acting Minister of Health[356]

Street disinfection in Ho Chi Minh City during the 2021 outbreak.

From 9 February to 1 March 2021, facing an increase in cases, Ho Chi Minh City closed down spas, wedding halls, cinemas, clubs and other entertainment venues.[357] On 25 May, entertainment venues and public spaces were again closed.[358] On 31 May, strict social distancing measures were again imposed in all of Ho Chi Minh City, closing down all non-essential services. Remote work was advised and no dine-in was allowed in restaurants.[359] On 9 July 2021, all of Ho Chi Minh City was placed into hard lockdown. In and out movements outside the city, excepts goods, were stopped. Fines were imposed for venturing outside without a valid reason such as buying foods.[360] On 19 July, stricter restrictions were imposed forcing all restaurants, markets and businesses to be closed down.[361] On 26 July, a night curfew was ordered, forbidding all movements after 6pm.[362] This was later extended to 1 August.[363] Hanoi was also placed under lockdown on 23 July.[364]

In Ho Chi Minh City and Bình Dương Province, officials instructed factories to follow the "three on site" model, which required workers to eat, sleep, and work on the factory grounds. Factory owners hurried to supply tents and bathrooms for their employees, who were crowded into warehouses and parking lots. As a result, hundreds of factory workers became infected while other many firms made the decision to stop producing because they couldn't afford to house their employees. Thousands of workers found themselves suddenly without a form of income. The issue has shaken an industry that has evolved to become the world's second-largest garment and footwear supplier behind China.[citation needed]

Ho Chi Minh City and Binh Duong Province, known as the country's "locomotive," are home to two of Vietnam's major industrial parks. According to government figures, roughly 1.3 million workers returned to their hometowns between July and September, then hundreds of thousands more followed once restrictions were eased in October. To restore production, managers have made calls promising higher wages to get the workers to return. The government of Ho Chi Minh City said on 22 October that workers willing to return would receive free transportation and lodging for the first month. Some of the measures have worked. Pouyuen Vietnam's workforce has returned to Ho Chi Minh City in large numbers, according to the company.[365]

A drive through COVID-19 testing site in South Korea in February 2020. South Korea's K-Quarantine strategy included rapidly developing mass testing capacity and infrastructure.

Most countries and territories affected with COVID-19 introduced and enforced some form of lockdown. However, only a few exceptions included Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, which rapidly and consistently implemented highly organized mass testing, contact tracing, public messaging and selective quarantining to identify and isolate outbreaks.[366][367] South Korea's K-Quarantine system was praised in international media for its effectiveness.[368][369][370] Authorities in Tokyo, the capital of Japan, advised businesses to close and the population to stay at home, but did not have legal authority to enforce a lockdown or penalise non-compliance. Compliance with advice was nevertheless high.[371][372]

In the European Union, the only nation not following this strategy is Sweden.[373] Led by its state epidemiologist Anders Tegnell measures in Sweden included the closing of universities and high schools and asking older and at-risk residents to avoid social contact, while keeping restaurants, primary schools and kindergartens open and not mandating face masks.[374][375] However, in early 2021, new laws permitting lockdown were enacted and Prime Minister Stefan Löfven warned that a lockdown was being considered.[376][377] As of November 2021, a national lockdown had not been announced. However certain regions of Sweden have declared their own lockdowns to help slow the rate of infection. The region of Uppsala reported 908 cases per 100,000 people over a two-week period compared to a national average of 772 in early April 2021. This caused the Health Chief of the region, Mikael Köhler, to ask individuals within the region to "act as if they were in a personal lockdown."[378]

Some of the countries that did not enact lockdowns during 2020, did so later in the pandemic. In Malawi, a proposed lockdown by the government was delayed by the High Court throughout 2020,[379] until a state of emergency was declared and the country entered a lockdown in January 2021 in response to a worsening outbreak.[380] Although Cambodia restricted movement within the country during a period in 2020,[381] it introduced its first major restrictions, including a curfew and later a stay-at-home order in the capital Phnom Penh, during its largest outbreak to date in early 2021.[382][383][384][109] East Timor also enacted its first lockdown of its capital Dili in March 2021[385] and Turkey entered its first nationwide lockdown in April 2021.[386][387]

Two states in Brazil and several others in the United States did not introduce any lockdown-type measures (commonly known as "stay-at-home orders").[388][389]
