Would "Universal Basic Income" motivate people to self-quarantine?


I think it's been proven that Isolation can stop the spread of this disease, and we must do so. However, the issue is that:
  • if people can't go to work, then they don't get paid.
  • if they don't get paid, then they can'y pay rent.
  • if they can't pay rent, then they become homeless.
  • if they become homeless, then they obviously can't stay home.
What do you think our world governments need to do to ensure that people can isolate without losing their livelihoods? Do you think some form of Universal Basic Income (UBI) will help this matter?

Unconditional cash payments combined with freezes on evictions and debt interest would certainly help matters.

I would say only for hourly folk or people who lost their jobs. A lot of office people are salaried, and are still getting paid. Many can also work from home.
