The more one enters into understanding (via the Spirit and His Word) the presence of the enmity God has placed between believers and unbelievers (chiefly between Christ and His, and Satan and his, which are unbelievers - Gen 3:15), the more potential there is for the tendency of loneliness, due to that fact that there will always be less of the former in comparison of the latter (Mat 7:13, 14).

Little is it realized but truly it is so, that only those who are believers are literally connected with many others, which includes the Sovereign Trinity and all who are reborn now in heaven and still on earth! Knowing and understanding this is a significant enablement against vulnerability to loneliness. Sadly though, this also means that unbelievers are not connected to any other single soul—in heaven nor on earth—which makes it a big universe in which to be alone.

Maybe we as believers have been conditioned to be better able to withstand quarantine. What may seem bad was meant for our betterment in times like these.

Thanks for the comment! It's always good to keep in mind that "all things" that happen in this life are used by God for, as you said, the betterment ("for good") to those who are His. And traumatic difficulties always causes believers to be more God-dependent, which is a continuous attribute we learn of more all the time to practice in everything.

We are quarantine from the world by faith in Christ that nothing can come nigh our house, but one has to believe unwavering, Psalm2 91

Myself, I've come to the understanding that whatever occurs in the believers life can be welcomed. God allowing it to occur and controlling it in my life, I can only know He's using it per Romans 8:28; and His work in this manner is not affected by what we might think could hinder Him in any way, because He has already taken everything into account about us, Him knowing everything. It's comforting to us to know He knows that all we want is His will done in our lives.

No matter how we think, feel or see God is always in control and that we have to trust.

I fully agree! That's a great point to make too. Hence the word "control," which means no matter what in transpiring, He is controlling all final outcomes of everyone. Eternal life to those who choose Him and eternal death to those who reject Him.

True, unbelievers are children of Satan and oppose Gods rule and intervention. Atheists wonder how can a loving God send people to hell. Its easy to understand once we understand the nature and works of the natural man.
