Your statement is categorically false. No country is/was as strict as China, but plenty of countries had mandatory restrictions ('lockdowns' if you will), upto mandatory stay-at-home, or stay-near-home. Just look at the (very partial) wiki list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_lockdowns_by_country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_lockdowns_by_country
Was it justified? I believe quite a lot of it was, but it did happen.
- alliao 4y agomandatory yes, but if you resisted what would they do? a fine? slap on the wrist? not sure if you've seen the severity of lockdown in China, they literally stuck a bolt in concrete to prevent people opening their doors in apartments, and soldered people's doors
- yyyk 4y agoYea, I wrote that no country was as anywhere strict as China. However, quite a few countries had curfews which elicited fines and possible jail time (fines happened, but I don't think jail was used in practice).
