We aren't allowed travel beyond 2km of our home, visit family, and the army are out to enforce this.
"Breaking: Taoiseach Leo Varadkar says from tonight, for a two-week period - everybody must stay at home in all circumstances, except in exceptional circumstances such as work and to get essential goods. He announced that all public transport and passenger travel will be restricted to workers only or people providing essential services, and no travel outside 2km from people's own homes. All non-essential health services will be postponed. 'Cocooning' will be introduced for those over 70 years of age."

Police discretion, basically. We're not even given a set distance — you convince a copper that you're travelling for work or essential food shopping, or you're told to go home.

How will they get supplies if they live alone/don't have people to help them? Is there some community effort to supply and check on them?
I've heard we might not be allowed to leave our boroughs soon, not sure if that's just a rumour. I think we're not supposed to have more than a few people together at a time.
