Fair to say the restrictions you called for ie "full lockdown" never came and never will. Even the UK's "full lockdown" you applauded isn't remotely a full lockdown. Again highlighting the meaningless nature of that term.
The reason being of course is that notwithstanding us being a democracy, WHO are not advocating for such restrictions. We are taking a scientific approach not a social media driven approach.
Obviously, ambiguity can arise when people resort to all encompassing yet meaningless terminology but if you actually parse it out, it's clear to see these further restrictions are closer to a helpful reminder than impingement on people.
For example, I have now lost the ability to play golf at a course but little has changed for me bar the venue. I can still continue to walk for 4 hours around a grassy field swinging a golf club with up to 3 other people.
GAB already picked up on your "severe testing restriction" which is another example of sensationalist hyperbole.
