Too easy to find a convenient "pandemic" and cancel freedoms.
The US Constitution guarantees freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, & freedom of speech. During a pandemic, should the government ever use the police/military to prevent mass gatherings in churches or political rallies?

It is acceptable to enforce special rules during a special severe bipartisan crisis (war or disease) AS LONG as the rules are specifically drafted to be iron clad impossible to use for anything else than such bipartisan special severe crisis. Thats called exception to the rule.

plus think about the old days, if someone got influenza in the 20's they were literally locked up in their house for a month afterwards they would be let go or they would be dead. A modern quaratine wouldn't be bad.

No. Once the exception exists it will inevitably be exploited and abused. Seriously, after a couple years it’ll be like “Oh, there’s a flu outbreak. Better go arrest all the Muslims.”
