I'm not an expert on any of this but I find the liberal take on these things to be unpersuasive. It's very plausible to me that authoritarianism is an effective way to curb disease transmission and there's a lot of case studies you can point to.

I'm not a specialist either and I haven't really followed this story, but even from the little I have read, I'm pretty confident that the claim that the flu is more dangerous is, at the very least, premature.

Quarantines may well be ineffective, but I don't think we can be confident that the flu is more dangerous.
