I don’t live in the US. France and Italy had policies closer to Chinese ones, but not as stringent, you had fines in some places if you were unlucky, on paper though you weren’t supposed to be outside much if at all.
Everyone knew COVID was everywhere and yet from one week to the next the French government changed its tune completely, and conflicting information, empty promises and moving goalposts were the norm 2020-2022.
I never stopped working because I had an “essential” job. At first we weren’t provided masks then a few weeks later we would get punished if we didn’t wear them, we were told to keep a distance working manual jobs in teams, and there were zero scientific references for most decisions being taken. It was a giant circus.
Or maybe, just maybe, more information on COVID was being gained day by day, and they were adjusting to meet that changing data. There was plenty of scientific data backing up the changes.
Plus, y’know, they had to balance the effects of a deadly disease with the need for those essential jobs.

Good grief, get over yourself.
