Australia, for one.
from the Deparment of Health COVID factsheet-
Airline crew who have been on international flights must self-isolate in their crew accommodation or home for 14 days after arrival, or until their next flight, whichever is shorter.
”self isolation” in this case in Aus means stay at home. You can only leave the house to go to work, a medical appointment or to escape harm (ie fire, flood, violence).
crazily, I could do a flight to NZ (which is mostly Covid free) and back to home base, in one duty, not set foot outside the plane other than a walk-around, yet I’d have to isolate in Aus when I return.
make sense? No. That’s government!

In Germany and Italy cross-borders workers are exempt. In Italy it took a few decrees to get to this. Looks like we have taken a more "common-sense" approach to this.
For layovers downroute, we have been either hotel confined or room confined.

I also just read somewhere the authorities are closing beaches around Europe. Australia did the same thing. Idiots.
Why UV-A and UV-B provide you with Vit D the real supplement that kills Covid-19. That's why we have a sun. Without it
we would all die. So the (authorities beach cops government departments) want to lock you up in your own home and suppress
your immune system and make you more depressed.

A lot of free time in the summer has traditionally been a huge and almost unattainable luxury for almost everyone in civil aviation. Maybe except for management pilots and those on the very top of the seniority list for their fleets. However, the catch is that it stops being enjoyable the moment one gets thrown out of their flying job and faced with the perspective of stacking shelves or driving a delivery van. Sorry about being negative, but that's exactly where one in every three pilots is heading soon if this utter madness carries on. If there's no flying in the summer, many of the companies relying on the summer months to make up for the weak season in the winter simply won't survive.

We've discussed this recently in the Italian forum, with the OP being employed by an Irish operator with a base at a UK airport. He is not required to be in quarantine either in Italy or the UK.

I regularly finish a trip by positioning by airline back to the UK, guess that means 14 days quarantine for me.
I see France has now retaliated imposing 14 day quarantine on anyone arriving from the UK

from the Deparment of Health COVID factsheet-
the above requirement means that you could be in permanent isolation. Home-work-home-work only, unless you get 14 days at home without going overseas, then you can go outside the home and do something.
”self isolation” in this case in Aus means stay at home. You can only leave the house to go to work, a medical appointment or to escape harm (ie fire, flood, violence).
crazily, I could do a flight to NZ (which is mostly Covid free) and back to home base, in one duty, not set foot outside the plane other than a walk-around, yet I’d have to isolate in Aus when I return.

How have you come to this conclusions? Seems contrary to any of the guidelines

Lockdown and total restriction of movement for months on an end is a blunt tool that belongs to the Middle Ages, not in 2020. The amount of destruction it caused and keeps causing is yet to be evaluated. One thing is for sure - this is not the way forward. Hence, PPE and social distancing regulations used in some sensible way should not upset anyone. The alternative to this is "a new normal" of poverty, violence, despair and significantly curtailed opportunity in every walk of life - with all due consequences for people's health, quality of life and life expectancy.
