In other types of panics I can see this being an issue, but here wouldn’t it just lead to more isolation? If not, can you be more specific about what bad things you envision would happen?
Situations where the emergency policy is seen (correctly or not) as endangering a population (town, city, metro area) or preventing them from protecting themselves.
Consider the dynamics in situations like Ferguson MO stemming from the way the government there dealt with the shooting of Michael Brown or the increasing escalation in Hong Kong. Both cases were actions supposed to be in the public interests but were not seen as such.
However, I have also said that well done, emergency actions by government can actually reduce and alleviate panic/​potential panic.
