Original Note:
The President did not have the authority to "lock down" or "unlock" States. When President Trump tried unlocking various States, he was chided that it was beyond his legal control under the 10th Amendment and that such authority was left exclusively to each governor. https://www.brookings.edu/articles/trump-or-governors-whos-the-boss/ https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/tenth_amendment
