Government builds or buys apartments from private companies for people in cities. If you don't want it a government apartment then you don't have to take it.

And if no homeless people want to live there it stays vacant?

That's both quite fascist and dictatorial.

How about we let people live in towns.

Sunny has gone power crazy, forcing people to live in government mandated city accommodation and work, or choose to be homeless and die in the wilderness.

Well, depends in which country you live, I guess. The UK has strict rules as to what defines a town and a city.

It was a string of bad decisions, as NY felt the brunt of the infection pretty bad. I would even say your healthcare system collapsed. But his command about sending the elderly still infectious back to their nursing homes was pretty bad. Especially when certain aspects of the disease were unclear.
