You will find details in the links that came with your message if it has arrived. This has comprehensive details.

But basically it means staying at home, you may go out if you have a private outdoor area not accessible by others. You should not go for a walk in public. You should have no visitors who are outside your immediate household members and you should even maintain some distance from the household members if they are leaving the house at all.
