In other words, Hajdu is telling us that our civil liberties will remain intact as long as we obey the government's quarantine orders.
Even without quarantine orders a significant loss of civil liberties occurred when the government prohibited large gatherings and ordered many private businesses to shut down.
To disobey a government quarantine order is not the act which gives rise to a loss of civil liberties, but simply reflects an attempt by individuals to exercise the few civil liberties they have left.
We don't see the government violating civil liberties under the pretense of stopping the spread of the flu.
More to the point, there is no justification for any government policy which violates civil liberties.
Aside from the violation of civil liberties, the government appears oblivious to other likely consequences of its policies.
We should expect serious consequences if the government continues to violate civil liberties.
