DOJ seeks new emergency powers amid coronavirus pandemic: One of the requests to Congress would allow the department to petition a judge to indefinitely detain someone during an emergency.

Imagine if this was a really deadly outbreak like ebola or something... We've been lucky and we (as in all people not just the US) are dumb

Lawyers are going to busy
