You can die of alcohol withdrawal, not smoking withdrawal.

Pretty much. A bunch of cranky smokers isn't a genuine problem. A bunch of seizing alcoholics at a time when ER's are already overwhelmed is. I personally think it'd be a lot better to use this opportunity to wean alcoholics off of their dependencies by offering rehab services with controlled dosing, rather than endangering people by keeping liquor stores open, but that does require more planning and infrastructure than is really feasible to slap together mid-crisis, and declaring liquor stores essential is an adequate alternative plan.
