What's not to understand? That you have numbers exceeding those of Sweden? And their people can enjoy life the way they used to for the most part.

of the 2 Socialist Monarchy states they are in much better shape. Germany and Japan are true stand-outs though... it's OK to be unable to understand, all the stress...certainly...
You still don't understand?
I think a lot of people that are in countries with lockdowns or had been in lockdowns and now re-opening...
Many were just fine (e.g. people already working from home, recluses, people living in rural areas, people that don't listen to health experts and so on).
In contrast, people not liking the lockdown (e.g. lost their jobs, hate working at home, couldn't go to the salon, get a hamburger from the fast food joint, had to wash hands/social distancing, hate all the media coverage about being controlled by their government and so on).
My point, within each country...there's people just fine with the lockdown and people not fine with it. Heck, I have a friend that needed a 2 month leave of absence (he hates his job) just to rest...boss declined. Then he got what he needed 3 weeks later...government lockdown, job closed and he's still getting paid.
Simply, lockdown has been helpful for some people to
reset their life.
Personally, the lockdown has
not impacted my work schedule (I'm a full time trader) except I don't like the fact that some of the non-essential government offices are closed because I had just applied for new passports for my kids.
Thus, I'm not sure where the governments (France, Canada and U.S.) are at in the processing of those passports.
Also, not able to see my girlfriend (an emergency nurse) has been tough because of her long hours at the hospital taking care of the sick. Yet, Facetime and every few days of talking to her while she's on the balcony (2nd floor) and I'm outside on the sidewalk has been Ok so far...late night titty show helps too.
