My dude, "nothing in history" is a very strong statement. You should read up about what state actors did to limit the spread of the plague. I'm sure someone could find something older, but lockdowns are attested to as a public health measure since at least ~500 BCE (whenever Leviticus was written).

I don't feel like you're engaging in good faith, so I'm going to go ahead and quit responding.

Keep your condescending tone for your friends "my dude".
