I predict you will only create a modern court precedent that government can do this. Backing up the quarantine precedents that already exist dating back to 1663.

You need to pick your battles, and file a lawsuit when a government tries this and there is NOT a clear and present danger such as COVID-19.

Quarantine, historically and legally, has been for sick people.

So I do think there is a good argument to be made.

The fear of course is that the courts would declare we can quarantine the healthy just in case whatever. But at this point what do we have to lose?

I wish a ton of lawsuits were being filed.
