Pretty much +1 to all of what AHC96 said above

Alcohol is not being sold, but you are free to drink it in your residence. While it personally bugs me (for purely selfish reasons) that it’s not being sold, it’s clearly a good idea as you are less likely to have anti-social behavior from groups of drunk people looking to cause some issues. Also, what would most likely happen is that many people would spend their last $20 on 40 beers, rather than on food for themselves. So it’s win-win

What “most basic goods” have been prohibited from being sold/distributed?

“totalitarian hellhole”, cmon now

If you have the Internet, or watch the news, you can clearly see the rules regarding times/days that people are allowed out. Would I like to be able to walk my 8-10 miles a day? Yes of course. Would I like to be able to use a gym? Yes of course. Would I like to be able to go to the supermarket whenever I want? Yes of course. However, the world has been hit by this and you have to give up a small amount, to hopefully get back to normal quicker

Going to 2 days, for men, last week to be outside did really mess things up for this Tuesday, as the lines to get into Pricesmart etc were a lot longer than normal. However it seemed to have returned back to standard wait times by Thursday. The government do need to come up with a better system if they will only allow people out for 1-2 days a week in the future. It will make shopping chaotic (and also not be good for social distancing) if they don’t separate it further

It went from no “lockdown” to curfew from 9pm-5am. Then for 1 day it went from 5pm-5am (pretty much so people were in to watch the government‘s address at 6pm that night). Then they brought in the hours as per your ID. Then they changed it to separation of the genders with M/W/F vs Tu/Th/Sa and everyone inside on Sundays. Not really too hard to keep up on. And you are allowed out for 2 hours each time, not 1
