It’s amazing big pharmaceuticals are bad until to comes to vaccines?
Evidence exists that the Chinese employed smallpox inoculation (or variolation, as such use of smallpox material was called) as early as 1000 CE. It was practiced in Africa and Turkey as well, before it spread to Europe and the Americas.
Coronavirus isn't on the list, but you just wait...
emphasis mine
4. Which diseases currently qualify for federal quarantine authority?
Since the 1940s, there have been a series of executive orders under the authority of the Public Health Service Act that have added various diseases to the list of those qualified for federal quarantine authority. Over time, the list of qualifying diseases expanded from plague and smallpox, to hemorrhagic fevers (Executive Order 12452), to SARS (Executive Order 13295), to flu with pandemic potential (Executive Order 13375). Then, in 2014, President Obama issued the most recent update, Executive Order 13674, which expanded the SARS-specific language with a broader formulation that captured the possibility of similar but distinct respiratory syndromes that have a potential for pandemic transmission patterns or for high mortality rates.
That 2014 expansion covers 2019-nCoV.
Prior to the 15th Century: Infectious disease has always impacted humanity, but even as early as 1,000 years ago, there is evidence people recognized the connection between exposure and immunity. The ancient Chinese may have used pulverized smallpox scabs taken from the sick and inhaled or rubbed them onto skin to immunize themselves. This primitive form of inoculation was practiced in Africa and the Middle East too before spreading to Europe.

I usually respect your opinions, but you don’t get to restrict the movements of other American citizens because you are scared. Authoritarianism is a much greater threat to life and liberty than Coronavirus.

Make sure you are stocked on Toilet paper so you do not have to break the quarantine because your wife got the runs from eating something you never usually eat.
If your sick and have been told to quarantine...then shut the hell up and keep your stupid ass quarantined...and quit whining about your rights that just ended at the wall where they butted up against mine...
Residents of the area will be allowed to leave and enter the zone, small businesses are expected to remain open, and people will be allowed to move about as they would in a normal day, officials said. Locations where large numbers of people gather will be shut down and cleaned to help stop or slow down the rapid spread of COVID-19.

Ya. I bet that never backfired and caused increasing spread of the disease.
Let’s state the population increased before the flu vaccine came along despite the fact “ Chinese may have used pulverized smallpox scabs taken from the sick and inhaled or rubbed them onto skin“.
Where did Coronavirus 19 originate from?

Nobody's Freedom of movement is being violated, so unless you just didn't read your own source, quit the fearmongering already.
Hours after the initial call, a Health Department worker came to the apartment where the women had been staying since they returned sick from a cruise, the women recalled. He told them not to open the door and he slid a sheet of paper under it. They said they were told to sign the document and slide it back out.
It was an isolation agreement: Both women were confined to the apartment indefinitely, until the Health Department declared them safe.

you know every person in America is required by law to have their casket placed in a concrete vault. this just seems like a cheap alternative, considering they currently cost as much as a casket.
I'm familiar with the FEMA theories behind it, just like to remain skeptical for my sanity.
Though most cemetery rules and regulations require outer burial vaults for caskets, opting for these containers and vaults is not necessary as per the federal law. A burial vault is used to line the grave before placing the casket or coffin in it, so as to prevent the ground above the casket from sinking in.
So you go find a completely unrelated story and try and prove me wrong with it? Haha, jokes on you.

For the rest of your post, there was a reason I didn't answer your question and if you did a little research on the topic yourself you would find out why you can't answer it. That's why I posted the stats I did because those are actual facts.
