Broadly 3 categories of dealing with this pandemic:

1) Knowledge workers/professionals who can work from home
2) Essential workers: Mostly production (food supply, energy) & keeping stuff running (Power grid, transportation) & medical workers
3) Unemployed/fired/very-poor
Almost all the discussion & policies are being crafted and thought about from viewpoint of Knowledge workers, who are the ones least impacted by this

They have the best places to shelter in and the least disruption. Which isn't to say it isn't hard. But most have it much harder
