I don't know about other countries, but the on and off lockdowns in some countries proved to be ineffective. Many experts said it's better to do lockdown in one go than it being staggered and having different levels of restrictions. But on the one hand, the totalitarian zero-COVID restriction like had happened in China is just as ineffictive.

Yep, the lockdown waves probably weren't ideal for preventing viral spread, but we now know they were at least better than doing nothing.

Hopefully we learn for next time
