At least if governments are enacting some sort of plan, it's still a plan (whether you agree with it or not), rather than no plan at all.

This is the kind of increasingly aggressive and standoffish responses that are becoming far too common.
I think most people can agree that elderly parents are vulnerable and need to be protected.
However, I also think that there are probably a fairly large number of people who, while agreeing with the first point, don't think it's really necessary to limit her visit to 2 hours if she comes over for Thanksgiving.
