Virus is testing (dry run) all the laws ways to permanently put in place ways to force quarantine and demobilize populations. More powerful and easier to implement than Marshall Law.

I'm not usually a grammar nazi - but it's Martial Law -- https://www.encyclopedia.com/social-sciences-and-law/law/law-divisions-and-codes/martial-law I keep seeing it spelled marshal - like it's a dude's name.

Marshal = legal protection of the courts (as in U.S. Marshal -- that's why they hunt fugitives)

Marshall = a name

Martial = relating to war

Martial Law = military takeover of civilian functions
