Can someone define "lockdown"?

I constantly hear about THE LOCKDOWN. All from the American Right, the so-called Rugged Individualists.

There is no lockdown in America.

Oh, sure; there are security measures. Some of them don't work. Some of them are near-farcical. But they do not rise to a "lockdown". If you want a state which seems serious about slowing this disease (and others), here is Commie California. You'll note that the measures differ from county to county.

If "lockdown" has any meaning it's what happens in a prison when all the inmates are locked in their own cells, maybe even chained to the floor. Is that happening? Is it happening across every county in every United State?

No?

Then it is not a lockdown. Don't call it that.
