>>11882435No, the lockdown has been nearly entirely ineffectual since it was initiated far too late, partially the fault of the governments of the world for wavering on what to do and mostly the fault of China and WHO for deliberately obfuscating the nature of the virus and lying about critical information to forestall criticism and punishment of the CCP.
Once it was confirmed that the virus was already spreading the only possible effective measure would have been extremely rapid testing and immediate quarantine of infected individuals, this has always been by far the most powerful tool against the spread of any disease and it wasn't implemented at all.
The "two hills" style graph most countries are now seeing with one primary wave and a very drawn out very costly secondary wave is stereotypical of poor response strategy.
All this tyrannical post-spread quarantine bullshit has been a gigantic waste of time, money, and what few shreds of civil liberty are left to people.
