Writing from Ireland, >20 cases a day (as of writing). The lockdown here was a huge success.

But looking at the US numbers it seems that you got the worse outcome of lockdown/no-lockdown. Economical hit, plus number of cases are back on the rise due to people not isolating properly.

One could argue that for US lockdown was a mistake. Or at least very costly move to delay/prepare for peak infections.
