Even closing of bars and restaurands was not imposed by the EU because it does not have the legal powers required to do that.
Please read up on competences of institutions before directing blame, everyone.
The EU has exclusive power in customs, openness of the internal market, monetary policy, internal commercial policy and some selected international treaties.
Member states are furthermore prevented from interfering from EU regulation - if it exists - in some areas of agriculture, environment and consumer protection, transport and energy and meta directives in legal fairness and security.
There is no competency for regulating health, that is solely member state responsibility.
Regulation of digital markets needs to attach to these powers, and so is derived mostly from a need to protect competition and internal markets.
