Rather having Police curfew in few areas, Why can't the President shut the whole country for 2 or 3 weeks to sort this virus.

Our president is paying for the sins of our previous leaders and also he is the only leader who is not into pomp and pageantry. He is the most simplest and the most sincere leader we’ve had so far. Most of us have faith and confidence in him
