Lockdowns by definition harm the population psychologically and economically. For merely slowing it down when it won't stop it from circulating or mutating, I don't see what the point would be by now unless we get a variant that is dramatically more dangerous than Delta and renders vaccines utterly useless which doesn't seem to be the case with this one (and even then it's a last recourse that isn't to be taken lightly).
