Not to argue in favour of it, but the idea was about 'flattening the curve' gradually. Therefore these measures were always set to be implemented at a certain time, not immediately. So it could spread in a managed way. Not be clamped down and stopped, just slowed.
yeah, again I'm not pushing that argument. I reckon there is a lot of confusion about this strategy and that also maybe hasn't helped it to work as it might have.
